Default Best laser goggles

Hi all, this is my first post and was wondering what are the best safety goggles for a 1.4w 445nm blue laser. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

This question has been asked time and time again. Please use the search function.

ARG - Blu Ray, Argon, Blue, KTP [NR-ARG-EN207] - $80.50

These are your best option, ANSI certified OD7+

Eagle PairŪ 190-540nm Standard Laser Safety Goggles

These are good, but not certified, and have a lower optical density. Both of these goggles will protect you from 1.4W of 445, the ARGs are a better option however.

Welcome to the forums And it's good to hear that you are already aware of the need for good quality laser safety protective glasses.

Please take time to read the Terms of Use, especially the Rules & Stickies, Welcome and Safety & Legal Issues forums

Edit: Do take the effort to carefully follow the LPF Search, Introduction, and Tips and use these search features liberally before posting (asking questions that are easily found by search, research, and reading without taking the effort to do so on your own may draw swift & negative responses ).

And browse the Buy, Sell, & Trade to become acquainted with the builders that have worked to develop solid reputations.

If you become interested in buying anything on the forum then be sure to read the 6 Steps To Prevent You From Getting Scammed

Also of interest may be the 39 Reasons NOT to Buy From Wicked Lasers

The eagles ones are cheaper but 50$ can get a good pair that actually looks good.

I have two pairs of these and they are awesome AND look good.



They list for $58, but there is a discount code for survival lasers somewhere on the forums if you do a quick search.

I doubt you'd see the dot at all with OD7...
