Hi there,
I am looking to buy a green laser. (i only owned <5mw pointers before).
The X105 sure looks like a good deal if you read throughout this forum but for some purposes it might be too powerfull.
For example: I would like to make a little lasershow for the party that i am having in my livingroom on newyears-eve.
You know, simple timetunnel effect, 2 motor spiro and some diffraction effects. I would also like to see the beams, so i have this aerosol smoke-in-a-can thingie
Since my livingroom is quite small, the +100mw is gonna be waaaay to much. ( I guess around 15mw would be good)
Also, the friends that are coming over are not gonna wear safetyglasses.
I was wondering if it would be possible to make a "regulating power supply" for the x105. Something so I can take the batteries out of the x105, and put my 2 wires in.
I'm guessing that if you use PCM, that it would be possible to downtune this +100mw beast, to 15mw with the correct pcm duty cycle. I'm also guessing that when you do this, the duty cycle that novalasers put on their website can be neglected. (ex can you turn on the x105 for 30minutes continuous on a 50% pcm duty cycle)
I would love to see a solution for this, because for indoor use, i dont see the point of using batteries if you can connect the x105 to this "powersupply".
One might say, why don't you buy a 15mw laser pointer then.. well.. I want to see burning stuff (with goggles) up close as much as anyone else!!!
(And buying a 15mw + x105 is something that my wife doesnt agree with)
I hope someone can point me in the right direction here.
Oh, before I forget. What do you actually see when you wear goggles ? Since a goggle blocks the light, can you still see the magic of the laserbeam ?)
Regards,
Highvolt
