Well i've got some lightyears points to spend and i can't decide between their lense holder that comes with a collimating lense and line generating lense or the mega matrix diffraction grading that snaps on. What do you guys think?
Thanks! :)

Wait and see if they send you a free diffraction grating with your laser. ;)

As far as I know everyone that ordered the X series package deal has received a free diffraction grating...I don't recall if others that did not order the package deal received a grating.

I received my e-mail the day after they shipped it. I had mine sent by EMS and the laser was here before I had a chance to check my e-mail.. ;D

If you need to know the status of your order send Nova an e-mail.

I too was thinking about getting the nova lasers lens holder but i only have half the points i need for it...
anyways i waited and waited and my father-in-law gave me the cap set he got when i ordered his laser for him awhile back. he had a wicked laser nexus so same size as my x105 i ordered. his laser got stolen so he gave me the cap set as he didn't need it anymore. also gave me his laser shades. Said he was going to buy the most powerful green there is soon and he'll get more then.
Anyways the cap set was loose on my x105 and would fall off. I quickly got tired of that so i thought of ways to fix it.
I ended up getting 1/2 inch diameter black heat shrink tubing and cut a nice size piece and put the lense holder part in one end and it fit super snug so it's not going anywhere, then i just screw the caps into that and all is good on that end.
The other end slides over the laser itself almost to the button. It doesn't even more now so no chance of it falling off. I can slide it off though incase i want to attach something else like my free diffraction grading i got with my x105.

now i got scared to heat the tubing too hot cuz the laser itself was getting really hot fast but so i stopped. It holds onto the laser and the cap set perfectly though. also i "LASERED" another spot in my X105 case to hold the lens I'm not using at the time.

Here are the pics for a visual

oh sorry to get sort of off topic.
just wanna say wicked cap set is little easier than nova one judging by pics.
i may still order the nova lense holder due to fact i can use a lot more diff types of lenses
wicked one only has a regular lense (just to protect actual laser lense) and the other is the focusing lense for better burning... as if my x105 really even needs that heh
