Yesterday I did some more comparisons and now I'm convinced I was wrong. There is a very, very slight color difference: http://laserpointerforums.com/f50/685nm-laser-box-84766.html

Ah, I see!
My 800mw green came in on Friday and everything looks great, very solid host that feels rather heavy. This green beast is extremely bright and burns things instantly compared to my 350mw green pointer while remaining cool. Here is a quick 90 sec run with a fresh NCR 18650PD cell, I am a happy Camper. Thanks again bloompyle for this awesome Laser and all your effort in this GB.

Looks to be right on spec. How are the beam characterisrics? Divergence, diameter?

So I finally managed to get my batteries topped off for some LPM tests. I have good new and bad news.
The Good: My 532nm 800mW PGL-III-C does about 900mW pretty constantly until a minute or two, at which point output drops to the spec'd 800mW.
The Bad: My 671nm 100mW PGL-III-C starts out at about 150mW, but after 30 seconds to a minute of on time the output drops to 70mW. After that it is a slow decline down to 50(this is where I turned it off, I don't know how low it would have gone).
Any idea why my 671 is so unreliable? It is all over the place and constantly trends lower and lower milliwatts.

Selling that 671 already, buyers remorse?

I need to get a 589. I am more concerned with filling in that wavelength area than deep red. And with school starting the extra unspoken for funds will be highly beneficial in helping me afford it.

Anyone hear from Samba?? I have his PGL still, I've PMed him several times about an address, his laser, etc. No replies... I don't like still having this thing, though there's nothing I can do if I don't know where to send it... :can:
Hey Bloompyle, sorry about that. I have been buried at work and for some reason I was not getting update emails from the forum and it slipped my mind to go check.
I have posted my address for you.
Thanks again and sorry for the delay.

I never got those PMs out!
Sorry, both intl shipments out.
GLP is packaged, I keep forgetting that one. If I get lucky, I won't be working 12's. So I will be able to get to the Post Office soon. *fingers crossed*
Samba, yours will go out next time I can get to the PO.

Do I owe you anything for the GLP shipping? Or is it the shipping money from Dr. Laser?

What about me and my 532nm 800mw ?
Have you received the endcap ?

You were the other intl shipment in question. I shipped it with the replacement cap, keys, and dongle.
Burn, you owe me nothing.
?However, that intl shipping wasn't cheap... About $25 each. One perhaps more expensive than the other.
