I've got some questions about Optotronics' RPL and LaserGlow's Hercules lasers.
I've noticed that the Hercules uses a fan instead of TEC to cool itself. Does this mean that the Hercules would be very loud? Also, this photo shows that the Hercules uses a piece of cut wire as the safety interlock. That doesn't look very professional, IMO.
For the RPL, it seems that both the adjustable and non-adjustable have advantages and disadvantages. For example, the adjustable version is more compact, lighter, and gives users more control, but the non-adjustable version is safer and doesn't require a flat-head screwdriver.
Will both tail caps fit with the same laser? If so, it would be nice to have both tail caps. It's something Optotronics should consider.
Finally, are the blue RPLs adjustable or non-adjustable (or both)?
