Sorry guys, but KTP isn't a magical laser crystal (I wish it was ::)) If KTP doubled ALL light that went into it, it would keep on doubling the light that it doubled. So 1064nm would double into 532nm, 532nm would double into 266nm, 266nm would double into 133nm, 133nm would double into 66.5nm, 66.5nm would double into 33.25nm, 33.25nm would double into 16.625nm, 16.625nm would double into 8.3125nm, 8.13125nm would double into 4.15625nm, 4.15625nm would double into, oh wait, you get the point ;D KTP would cause and endless loops if it were a magical laser crystal.

There's a 1W diode for $70 and a 2W diode for $95 on ebay from snoctony, shipping included.Those would probably make good pumps, or just good for burning the heck out of black stuff :D That's gonna be my next project after the 803 pointer.
Way ahead of you!
