PM replied... Too ambitious? Nah... This lens will last a lifetime is not abused. And can be used for your future 12X or higher!
But if your first build will be a PHR, then you will be fine with an AixiZ acrylic lens. 6X or higher, should really have glass. Any 405nm blu-ray build in the 200mW neighborhood or up, will degrade acrylic...
Hi Jay, I'd like to order just a bare 405-G-1 Glass Lens. I'd absolutely love to get the full mod but I'm on a strict budget, I'll figure something out tho. :san:
I'll shoot you a PM.
I just wanted to post what the full plan I have for this project is atm. I am going to be modding one of these: Pocket Laser Light Show Battery Powered Home Laser Light Show
To incorporate the blue laser. I am hoping to open it up to accommodate both lasers, though that will likely make it impossible to close the body back entirely; however, since the pocket show is cheap anyway I'm not that worried about it being a casualty of experimentation.
This project is coupled with another later project to add optics to the light show's default red laser to give it a greater distance (it dies off at about 15 feet and is indistinguishable in most lighting at 10 feet).
AWESOME Site... I just ordered the Playmates Phaser from Amazon. I got build this up...
Is there a complete parts list and pricing guide you would have? I'm looking for something like this for sometime. It was by pure chance that I can upon this...
I would most likely use the 405 blu-ray, I can get the small LED unless u have 1.
Please let me know how much $$$ and how to make payment.
