Okay so if i want to make a nice yellow using 30mw of green, then how much power on the red do I need?
Also does anyone know of any recommended dichros? (the cheaper the better!)


Thanks

Right general rule of thumb is that the red should be about 3 times the power of your green. As for the Dichro try the resource page http://www.laserpointerforums.com/forums/YaBB.pl?num=1172987253

a 4:1 ratio is for pure yellow, but for 30mw i would say about 80-100mw red
