Well I have had my RPL for a while now, and I must say I LOVE IT! It is the silver model made in Jan 22 09. Here are the specs:
Dot size at laser head: 1mm
1.03mRad
377mW avg
475mW peak
The best settings for my RPL are
1= 150-200mW
5= 230-250mW
9=300mW
E=350-360mW
and the BEST is setting
F= 330-475mW!!!!!!
ON setting F the laser seems to get a bit more un-stable, but no matter what ITS BRIGHT!!!
I was haveing problems with this unit eg mode hopping, and HUGE power swings, and NEVER hit 300mW, but I have found that this RPL does NOT like cold temps at all, it begins to have problems below ~60 F. (Even after warm up)
But that is just DPSS for ya!
This laser is awsome, my main siggestion is that opto makes the tail cap more easy to adjust(NO key!!!), and has the settings more easy to read.
Here are some pics!
Beam:
Overall I am very happy with this unit, (Thanks Luke for the major hook up!!!)
Thanks all,
Dustin
