Well i got my Blu-ray laser today, decided i would label all my lasers.

So here are some pics.

Nice!!

I think you're good for a matched RGV set now...

I like the labels on that Cree.

lol, yea im actually considering building a red burner. we'll see.lol

Thanks, Appreciate it!

Lol laser in the front? Isn't that a little ironic? Silly?

That's kinda what I was thinking too, no offense. Just change it to "laser aperature" in really small font.

You need a warning on the front, "Warning! Bright shit comes out of this tiny hole! Look out!"

LMAO! That would have to be really tiny font.

Nice pictures and good job with the labels!

I noticed you took a lot of pictures of the Pocket Mini... Guess you kind of like that one huh?

HAHA! I took that off right after posting these pics lol..... yea at first i was gonna do something then changed idea then now i dont like that so took it off.. everyone that looks at it has no idea its a laser.. so thats where the idea originated... but LAME yes i know lol. its gone though. lol

lol.. yea i was thinking of something creative but scratched the idea lol. it just looks better without anything on the front lol

Yea just got it in mail the other day lol.. so had to have a few of em! lol.
I been burning stuff all day and junk lol

If your like me than You went crazy trying to get them perfectly lined up.

Why? Do you often forget what they are? What else do you label?

I think they look better without stickers.

to whom were you referring to ^ if me... I was talking about the label themselves, and yea! I need some times myself to label my units cause in my builds I use about 5-6 of the same host, but at different currents and diodes.

Or were you just being you...

Then you can use small font and write "If you can read this, you're too close to burn an eye " (included the tongue smile, LOL)

If you have more than one and no labels then you may forget what their power ratings are.

I would forget what the power rating was for my bluray. and the big 50mW greenie has no labels so i labeled it cuz i know i forget or other people ask what it is lol.

i may have gone overboard little lol.. but im still trying to get warning labels... cant find them..

I want to remember what exactly it is cuz i plan on building some others

lol!

9pt font is the smallest i can print lol.. dont think i got enough room on it lol. funny tho!

Is this one of those Dymo labelmakers? Got one of these, and I use it to label my hard drives and computers... very useful in big computer rooms where all the servers are the same model...

On my end, been wondering where I can get those cool metallic laser stickers, the DIY paper ones look lame, and even if printed on a hi-rez color laser printer, just don't look as nice as the "satin" finish metallic stickers on laser pointers coming from Asia.

I've been debating getting small pieces of black plastic and "engraving" with the 200mw to make labels. Or I'm just eager to burn things.

check these out I make them for the lasers I bulid and if there was enough intrest I could be perswaded to make them for all. they are laser cut in white on black or black on white, I'm looking into red, green, purple on black colors.

heres what they look like on some of my lasers.

It is a good idea to label your lasers if you get a big enough collection going...I have so many generic NewWish pen lasers that I don't which one is which.

@Flaminpyro- The labels look good but you put "Mw" instead of "mW" and for the physics picky person purple should be violet. The black labels look like they blend in great with your dark hosts like the MXDL though.
