SurvivalLaser.com Red Laser "The SL-R" Review "Pictures & Video"
Hi All,
:eg:Review on Survival Laser's New Red Laser Called the SL-R.:eg:
>>>CLICK ME TO GO TO SurvivalLaser.com<<<
SL-R Stands For "SurvivalLaser - Red" if you are wondering but iam sure you all figured that one.LOL
He has 2 options For the SL-R that you can go for:
A complete laser bundle package witch is awesome and comes with many items that you need to get started. I recommend this For anyone that is New to lasers and dont have all the proper accessories to get started. Especially Laser safety Glasses. Even if your not new to laser it still is a great buy for what you get.
Survival Laser R 660nm Parts Bundle w/Accessories & Rechargeable Battery
He also sells one that is Just components only. In this option You will have to put the laser together yourself. Comes with a Detailed Instruction Sheet to put the laser together. It should Not take you more then 10 minutes to do. There is No Soldering neither with this Options. So All you Need to put this laser together is your 2 hands.
Survival Laser R 660nm Parts Bundle - Laser Components Only
Let me start off by saying Survival Laser is an Awesome store. Gary the owner is Active on the forum everyday. So you know that you will have Great Support. He is a Guy.:beer: I have Yet to Here anything Bad about him or His company or Lasers that he sells.:wave:
OK So I received this laser about a week or so ago and have been using it ever since. THis is not the same laser that i did the 3 mode Red In. Its a true Survival Laser SL-R. The other one in that video was DIY but with SL custom Anodized heatsink.
The Laser came to me Super Fast and Well Packaged. When i mean Super Fast i mean Super Fast 3 Days and he lives on the totally on the other side of the country then me. So that is pretty sweet to know if i need something i can get it quick. Since he also Sells other items too like Modules, Lens and Heatsinks.:beer:
The laser it self is SOLID. Feel Great in your Hand and well balanced. Especially with the battery in. It takes a SINGLE 18650 Cell. >>>DO NOT USE 2X CELLS IN THIS LASER YOU WILL KILL IT<<< It is designed to run off a single cell only. So please note this that its not same setup as his 445nm laser that used 2x Cells. I have yet to drain the battery in the 3 days that i have been using it. I use it every night for ~ 10-15 minutes of total ON time. Witch is a Protected AW 18650 2600mah cell. Cant go wrong with AW. THey are some of the best cells out there.
This Will bring me to the Heatsinking. Its Epic. The Red Color heatsink Match so good with the laser body itself and the Wavelength. It is one of the coolest things ever. Iam so glad that he Expanded the colors from his Blue 445nm Heatsinks to his Red laser and His New 12x 405nm laser with a Purple heatsink. They are One of a Kind and i think that its what makes this laser unique over all other C6 style laser. So :gj: on that SL. There was No flaws what so ever on the Anodizing or the host itself. This laser Does Not get Hot but barely warm after left on for 5 minutes. However i do not recommend you do this With your laser. Please fallow a reasonable duty cycle of 2 minutes on 1 minute off. So this means the lasers heatsink is doing its Job correctly and keeping the diode cool.
The SL-R is Sold as a 300mW Laser +/-20mW. My laser Reads in a little more then 300mW. "Look at LPM video below". Witch i can say that its up to Spec. It uses an AR Coated Acrylic lens that i must say is my favorite Red lens out there other then the G1 lens witch he also has avalible for this laser with a drop down window option. Its pretty rock solid stable to. It doesn't hit the peak power then starts dropping like crazy like our 445nm diodes do. So that is Awesome. You are getting a true Power laser.:wave: With the G1 lens you will get close to 400mW out of this laser. A Big Big Difference in Power for burning.
The Diode that is Used in his SL-R is The New LPC-826 diodes witch are rated Higher power then the LPC-815 Safely. SO you are going to get a long lasting laser.:wave: Iam a fan now of the LPC-826 diodes.
Iam Very Happy and Impressed With This Laser & The Service Behind The Laser. A product is only good when you have support behind it. Keep that in mind.
Now For Some Pictures.:evil:
Pictures:
The Laser itself.
Side View.
The Business end of the Laser.
Back View of Clicky.
Battery Contact Spring and tail caped Removed. Battery goes in + First. So + of the Battery goes in toward the head of the laser and - of the battery goes toward the tail cap, spring and click. "Note This"
Closer Look at the Beautiful Red Heatsink and the AR Coated Lens that also came out nice looking in this Picture.
Its a Perfect Size Laser. Fits in your Hand Nicely.
Another angle of how it fits in your Hand.

Final Thoughts:
That laser itself is Awesome. I love it. THe Host is Solid and feels Like it will last a long time. Espacial the Anodization on the host. As well as his Beutiful Custom Red Anodized heatsink. Its Perfect and one of my favorite parts of this laser and why i bought it. The Threads are very smooth and i dont think there is any chance of cross threading them.
THe Laser is Up to Spec and some.:wave: The Laser Barely gets Warm when on for a medium to long period of time of 5 minutes. If you fallow a duty cycle of less then that you will feel NO HEAT.
