Here is a HeNe 1508-0 Novette .95 mw I have one that is .5 and love this little gas laser good price for a starting out gas laser here is the link
Helium Neon Gas Laser | eBay

That's the second one he has, I bought the first. Cant wait to get it.

I think this is a good deal. 5 single mode blues, for $100 + $20 shipping. That works out to $120 / 5 = $24 each.

LOT OF 5 Blue Laser Diode 455nm Nichia High Quality Single Mode | eBay

Not sure I've ever encountered Nichia single mode blues before, and the listing leaves a bit of detail to be desired.

That guy has had them listed for quite a long time, although they were previously listed as Osram, which would make them the PL450B.

He has 5 lots of 5, so the group could be 25.

got mine today. if anyone else has one and wants to get the tube out, there are 4 screws on each cover under the sticker. then you have to unstick the PSU from the bottom, its double sided sticky taped in there.

Be-a-utiful!
(sorry for crappy phone pic)


Edit: btw, if you get one and are taking the tube out, either wear a glove, or short the tube (anode? cathode? whichever it is) out to the case, because i reached my hand in there all willy-nilly in excitement and got myself a nice big jolt. be careful :p

double edit: k. do yourself a favor and dont touch anytihng metal on the tube when its running or after its turned off. i went to remove a fiber from the mirror while it was on, brushed against the metal...zap. AGAIN. ahkjrhakjhsa so tired of shocking myself :mad:

That's really nice.. I still want one with more plasma visible though so I can make a lamp.. I rarely see them on ebay.com.au though.. No one over here puts hene's on ebay.. You guys are spoiled with choice!

Yea, i would like a larger tube to make a lamp with at some point. but having this is good enough for now- now i just have to decide whether or not to pull the trigger on a multi line or not!

I say any high power gas is a pain in the butt unless you have a specific use for it. They have to be run
every couple weeks to keep the tube in shape and put out lots of HEAT which is bad right now in the
middle of summer. I've had to run mine outside in the daytime because of the bugs, so it's harder to see.

I'm 99.9% sure it's 405nm. You can tell from the pics of the dot. Way too violet.

Dibs, likely purchasing in 5-10mins. Going to see if Sam is familiar with this seller, but consider it sold regardless.

This email will serve more as bragging, than clarification ;)

EDIT: Apparently, doing a commit to buy, doesn't seal it as yours. I had committed to purchase it, and had my paypal pay screen open. Then did my password and all that, and now I am being told that it has already been sold.

What the f*** ebay?! I have been waiting on an IR HeNe for over a year and a half now, and when I finally have the chance, ebay just bends me over and f***s me. Terrific. Thank you for the wonderful service. Cannot wait to use ebay again next time......

How did I know you'd be the one to try and grab this :)

Good this I didn't have any extra cash right now. I've had it on my radar for over a year and this is the first one to pop up.

Sorry you got off'ed on this one. :(
