If I wanted to make a pinkish beam from a high powered blueray (~80-100mW), how much red would I need to balance it out?

As I understand it the human eye is more sensitive to certain frequencies and it wouldn't be a 50/50 ratio...

Also, would this dichro be suitable? http://cgi.ebay.com/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130172393138

IIRC, It'd be something like 35/65... not sure... you could get a DX200 and a 803T running at 80-some mA...

That's a photography dichro, though, so I'm not positive how well it would work. Always worth a try though, eh?

They have already done it on WL LC. Try combining green with violet, you get teal
Not sure about the ratio though...
