Those green lasers are getting more powerful by the day!

:san:

He/She must be quite dumb since the main danger lies in the UV spectrum (300nm<).

Broken links. Edit: Diffraction Crystals.

I know, you said "biochemically". :tinfoil: Lasers at 405nm~445nm cannot cause cancer. /thread :tired:

Blue Lasers at the 445nm wavelength cannot cause cancer, nor can Blu-Ray lasers at the 405nm wavelength. They are not even UVA. Eye damage is a whole different story though.

If I would know you in real life, I would steal all your lasers just for the sake of public safety. :banned:, please.

Awesome build! :drool:

Oh no another one. :crackup:

I doubt it, the govt. probably has something better on it's mind now than lasers.

Dot on my yellow wall without shining it through the goggles: Dot on my yellow wall while shining it through the goggles: ^I'm curious about the power of this dot. (>200mW red used for photo's)

I'm not trying to kick you away from your company, I misunderstood some posts, I didn't know it was a multi-owner company. My apologies. Wow, :wtf: some people swap modules, they should be :banned:.

150mW is more than enough to cause permanent damage, but you might get lucky and end up with temporarily damage. If the damage is temporarily you'll have dots for weeks if not months, I've had mine for 3 weeks now, but they're getting a bit smaller now, but only a tiny little bit! If it's...

I see, I see, well; Laserglow and Optotronics are both trusted companies afaik. Don't underestimate a 1W laser, I once caught a stray reflection of a 200mW, which is NOTHING compared to 1W, and really, I hate those pesky blind spots . Keep the duty cycle in mind! And indeed, storing them in a...

I suggest you buy it from Rayfoss or O-Like, or any other cheap company out there who's lasers are reliable and up-to-spec. How long it lasts all depends on how much you use it, how careful you are with it, etc. Also, 1W is hell a lot of power to start with as your first laser, personally I...
