Are you sure the OSRAM diode is 460nm? Pretty sure it's 450nm, right?

(Also - for my sanity, can you lowercase all of the m's in your "nM"s? It's really bugging me XD )

I don't really know i just take my information from kevin. But 450 could be possible too..

Why don't you like nM? that is the good way of spelling it right?

Sorry, now wonder I couldn't find it on their site.

Would you ask Kevin about the white version? Have been buying more "interesting" units from our forum members lately and the white is what attracted me to this laser.

Interesting such as:
Blord is working on a 638 1W+ for me in his steel host...(thanks B!) and I have a gold plated 1W+ pen 445nm (http://laserpointerforums.com/f39/2-pen-lasers-wl-e3-1w-445nm-gold-plated-sold-79049.html) that I should have by Friday. Aslo should be getting my Guidesman (http://laserpointerforums.com/f39/sold-2w-445nm-laser-highly-polished-guidesman-205-a-78726.html) arriving at anytime now.

On the lookout for a aa size unit with ok mw at a reasonable price which seems scarce...


Let me know if the white is an issue. For less than 2 bucks more for the white on their site it doesn't appear to be any kind of "special" upgrade.





By the way, I mentioned that I loved the cat drag and showed my wife and found out that she used to do this with our older cat.
Found a new toy that my younger cat LOVES (older cat seems fascinated just to stare and watch). Take a helium balloon, attach string a foot off the floor and add something like a key ring and the cat whacks at it like crazy. Mylar balloons last over a week (regulars only last 12-24 hours depending on size). Here in the states BJ's wholesale club has a kit that comes with a helium tank, 50 balloons and string for 22 bucks.

Naw, the correct way is nm. In SI units (which nm is one of), unless it is named after someone, it is always lowercase (for the unit). Therefore, the "m" part, meter, is lowercase.

Really? Whoops the only reason why i take the extra time to hit the shift button every time is because i thought it was right this way

Well now that we're getting picky, the closing date is jacking me up lol.

14-1-2013 should be 1-14-2013

Thanks for making this GB though, I'm pumped that I could be holding a quality 300mw 532nm for that price.

Re: ROUND 2!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

Count me in! Put me down for a 1000mW HL808 and a 300mW HL532. That would come to $217 + $33 shipping = $250. January 14th? That'll give me just enough time to save that much money. I might even add another laser to my order further down the road here, because these prices are phenomenal!

Lol, 300mW for sure possibly way more if you are lucky get some IMR's is my advice!

Got you covered buddy! Adding you to the list now! :beer:

Re: ROUND 2!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

i'm be a silly question but the PL 405nm 500mw in the picture shows 1 18650 cell but in the discription say 2 16340's so what does it take. i'm almost sure i'm getting the PL-405, and PL-650.

Pretty sure it takes 2x 16340's! Not 100% sure though.. Let me know what you want :beer:

Re: ROUND 2!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

Hey could you please put me down for a HL 532 300 mW?

You've mentioned they should be over spec, but do you have an idea of what sort of output range we're looking at? :thanks: and :beer:

Re: ROUND 2!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

Any news on the diffraction caps, and plugs as opposed to dongles for the tailcaps?

Well mine did 517mW.. That is quite of the scale but i think 400mW+ is pretty normal with these.. They eat batteries! Adding you now!

Re: ROUND 2!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

My HL523 300mW peaks at over 600mW briefly... I suspect it's more of a battery issue that it's not stable at a higher power.

The problem is, overspec is not really a guarantee. Only onspec is a guarantee...

True, also heatsinking is an issue the host gets hot pretty quickly! I don't know about others but mine performed well after getting warm. Wouldn't let it get too hot though

Hi, offroadfreak, sing me up for a 300mW 532nm Handheld! Thank-you

I understand about sending the PayPal as 'gift' due to my rep, so don't worry about that. :thanks:
