Just wondering who has the most powerful visible laser? Anyone with 10-40 watt green?
Some guys love burning power, I love beam shots.

I don't have anything in that range, but when my Lexel 95-4 was working, I had it up to 1.78 watts of 514nm, a very nice almost forest green. Very bright.

GooeyGus owns a Spectra physics 168 5W argon ion laser rated at 5W nominal, but will do around 8W at full current

I've got a 4W ion laser, and the frothy chip has worked with a 10W green before. Anything much higher than that and you'd need to go to PL. There are a few 10W copper lasers,a few high power ions, a few 40W greens, and other goodies.

I have a spectra physics 2017 and 2016, not running though, lack of 3 phase power. Does the universities doubled yag count too? Easy megawatts
