so does this mean the laser will shut off out of random baceuse of the duty cycle?
Laser smith, I don't think its possible that he left it on that long. It has a momentary switch so it's unlikely but it could happen.
If the laser starts to act up, give it a break or you could stick to the recommended cycle of 90sec on/20sec off.
I agree with hak. I've seen some videos on YouTube where these pens are taken apart and out comes the green laser module without additional heatsinking.
