Hello,
After seeing the jetlasers GB, I desided I wanted one of these for myself, so I ordered directly from gray. Originally I ordered a 250mw, however after talking to gray, he informed me that a 250mw model may not be used due to the size of the host, so he offered me a partial refund and the 200mw unit in its stead. I accepted, and he sent it. The DHL express is insanly fast, it was in my town in 2 days... however, because the long weekend, I didn't get it on friday, so I got it today instead. No blame towards Jetlasers.. DHL mixed something up apparently and I needed to pick up the package.
Jetlasers has by far the best customer support ive ever talked to, Gray always responds in detail and in a timely manner, has been very honest and fair, and thoroughly answers all the questions I had. So specail thanks to Gray and Hakzaw1 for both of thier time and patience, and for answering all my questions.
Now onto the laser itself, first thing is the titanium host. The host is very well machined for it to be made from titanium, having experience with machining 6al-4v alloy before, I know first hand just how much of a bitch and time consuming it can become. so I am very impressed with the finish and appearance of the laser.
The laser's switch is a twist on/off, with a momentary pushbutton. The 532nm Ti-B takes a single 14500 3.7V battery.
The module inside is very stable. the 200mw model I was sent peaked at 242mw, and stabilized at a 235mw (laser is IR filtered) , and maintained that pretty constantly. It always sticks in TEM00. The beam diameter is pretty cool too, bieng 1mm at apperture and <1mrad divergance. This is no doubt the most stable and highest beam quality 532nm ive ever owned.
Now onto the pictures:
For size referance, a 5mw newish pen
Square threads, nice finish!
There is nothing I love more then a good knurling job, most pre-made hosts and lasers I come across lack fully formed and high quality dimond knurls. This bieng titanium too, its quite impressive.
Power meter shot:
And now some beamshots:
Highly impressed with both Jetlaser's product and customer service, it is by far best Ive seen. I won't hesistate to deal with them again.

Looks like some laser you have there Sir.
and found titanium to actually be the best material. Tungsten cracked... broke 3 rings that way. Aluminum just deformed too easily. Steel was pretty good middle of the road... but titanium held the shape well enough and didn't crack.
sellers:tsk: would be so upfront about the mWs-- Gray is the man--:bowdown:.
