Hi, can You suggest some company, website to buy laser:
Class: IV (and NO IIIb etc.)
Wavelength: Green (or close to green like yellow-green or teal) ideally about 550nm
Power: at least 1W, more welcomed
And I mean REAL power not china like <1000mW (which is in reality 50mW)

Any websites?
I've checked few - but hard to find: laserbtb have 445Nm (blue) of 1600mW - but this is "too blue"
Maybe someone of You wants to sell such thing?

Best Regards.

:thinking:.......

1W of green? True power... How much do you think you will spend on a laser like that?
What will it be used for? do you have any special use for it?

I would go with Jetlasers' PL-E as handheld (800mW) or
a lab style laser (a few W)...

You're prettymuch stuck with 532nm, unless you want to spend $XX,XXX on a 1W ~550nm laser instead of $XXX on a 1W 532nm laser.

If you want teal at that power, you'd probably need to buy an argon laser or go the OPSL route.

Click to expand...

A CNI 556nm lab laser is your only option with what I bolded... it will NOT be handheld.

If you want a teal color, maybe you can get enough 520nm mixed wiht 450nm diodes knife-edged to 1W.

If any green suits your desires, 532nm is the way to go, you'll find plenty of sites getting you those.

^seems like it. Let me guess, OP. You want it in a handheld and have <$200 to spend.

1 W is no problem to find in a lab type laser.

It is a problem to find in a stable handheld 532nm with an output of 1W or more.

That being said here is a JetLasers PL-E 700mw that hits 1W for a short period of time after warming up for 3 minutes. Metering PL-E 532nm 700MW Green Laser for 9 minutes, dark gray housing - YouTube

Keep in mind that to double the visual brightness you need 4 times the output power.

Hey.
I'm not a troll.
I just need such laser, and I thought this is a good place to ask.
Why 1W?
I've bought 808nm laser already.It supposed to be 1W but I've received <500 mW class IIIb which is not enough for my purposes.
Ohhhh: it is not really needed to be handheld.
And cash.... it's not me who will pay for that thing

1W 532nm Green Laser Diode TTL for Lightshows | eBay

Probably gonna be your cheapest option. You're not gonna get 1W in any other green/yellow like wavelength without selling your car first. A few members here have those modules, and most of the time they exceed 1.4W, some people even seeing 1.8W from them.

OK, good to know.
I've already seen such modules on many websites.
Now I know that they're probably the only choice.
So we may consider IR lasers - they are cheaper and more powerful.

at least you can get one near impossible in australia unless imported in parts and assembled or take chances on customs putting it in your suitcase ON way back into the country

You mention 808nm----is no problem to get a handheld 808nm with a real output of 1W, 1.5W or 2W and they are relatively inexpensive. A lab type 5W 808 is not even very expeisive.

see 808nm handhelds at: PL-E Pro 808nm Infrared Lasers

I know that I can buy even 5W IR, the problem is that I'm not sure if IR laser will be OK or not - I will have to ask.
I know for sure that green would be OK.
