Hi, I just have a question : Are the tubes need to be powered by Co2 gas or Is already gas in it ???
I can add that the CO2 tubes sold on ebay are empty of CO2
CO2 lasers may be the most dangerous kinds of lasers out there
Casual inquiries about CO2 lasers may be met with the same dubious suspicion
any knuckle head can hook up the tube to a power supply and water pump
yup, but few will check the input current and will assume it's safe for the tube they have purchased simply because it says 40 watt on the tube and 40 watt on the supply
I will always maintain that building standalone CO2 gassers is unwise in anything more than smaller experimental powers unless you have quite a bit of general physics experience or use of higher powered lasers. The chances of injury are simply too high.
If I get chance I'll rig up the 200 watt GSI I have here tomorrow in a lab format and video what it does at what range.
cheers
Dave
the tube is way back on the bench, behind something and grounded after
Light a match with 40 watt? You could light your finger!!!! Or pop a basketball.
