Wrong Goggles!! DOH!

InfinitusEquitas said:

Not proud of it, but I've made the same exact mistake in the past too when LPMing... switched lasers, didn't switch goggles.

What I really need are goggles that would provide OD 3+ coverage for 400-480nm, 505-540nm, 630-670nm, and 808nm-1064+

Without blocking 480-505, 541-629, and 670 to 808. Unfortunately I doubt that any manufacturer would be willing to design such a pair, that would permit us to work with basically all of the most common wavelengths at once.

Onto my 3rd laser , soon 4th .
The RGB spectrum is now fulfilled.

However, that raises a problem.
As the only goggles that can block all wavelength is this

I just had my first REAL accident .

Was setting plywood on fire a while back ,
First tried the blue , it burned .
Then the green , it smoked.
Finally the red .
"Gee !The dot is awfully red ." I thought

DOH!!!
I AM WEARING THE WRONG GOGGLES!


Here is a note to everyone , buy brick goggles.

Instead of investing a lot of money on custom goggles, one could try Indirect viewing.

VGA Camera + LCD display + Glasses Frame + Some lens + Batteries.

You could even take some pictures in first person. Like a screenshot, but in real life! crackup

edit: but really. It is going to be cheaper imo.

I have a pair of OEM Laser Systems ML-7 along with the more wavelength focused Eagle Pair (set of R, set of BG).

Works great for tinkering around non-shiny stuff.
