I'm still not sure whether I should go for an RPL or Herc after reading the reviews.
The day that I have to make the decision is coming nearer. (and I tend to lean towards the RPL)
This is what i know so far:
Herc Pro's :
No duty cycle on full power,
More visible beam due to larger beam diameter(I guess)
RPL Pro's :
Better burning capabilities(although I don't know how big this difference is)
Longer warranty period.
More portable. (which is less important for me)
Which one has a better divergence?
If you adjust the power of the RPL to a lower setting at which output do you have a full duty cycle?
Is it true that the beam of the Herc is more visible than the RPL?
Is it safe to leave the RPL on(full power) until it shuts itself down?
And finally, Is is worth the Money the go for RPL300 instead of 260 or Herc300 instead of Herc250.
I think it doesn't matter if it's about visibility but is there a noticeable difference in burning power?
For example? are they both capable of lighting a cig and igniting a fireworks fuse or lighting a match under water(the trick Windstrings did with his Herc300)
I know it's a lot of questions but these lasers are quite expensive and I want to make sure I don't regret my decision later.
