Using 3 hosts from Ehgemus, I created (or rather, am creating) a matching RGV set as my last portables before I move onto tabletop laser systems.

Unfortunately, the driver for the red diode isn't working as I expected, but I have the green and blu-ray up and running.

Lots of pics here:
Triple Play: Matching Portable Lasers





tl;dr: Ehgemus's hosts are superb and belong in the collection of any laserist. :)

May I ask how much did you shell out for the complete set? Also, powers?

Thanks guys; glad you like them.

As for Niko's questions:
Let's see, in total, it was like $190, which is a pretty good price IMO. I'll probably have to buy/make one more driver though, so that adds about $10-20.

As for powers, I still need to test everything on my meter, but if I were to take a wild guess, I'd say that the blu-ray is about 100mW and the green is around 80mW (O-like delivers overspec units as usual :D).
