Going to try a 1W 520 and hopefully not burn down the forest! :)
Seriously though I do these jobs in the winter and it stays pretty wet around here and the laser shouldn't be on long enough to ignite anything (just a quick 1-2 sec max momentary flash).
And if my original plan doesn't work, then...
Thanks Alex,
So in your opinion there would not be a significant difference in visibility between 520nm and 532nm in this application to warrant getting the 532nm?
Thanks for the reply diachi,
Conditions will be daylight hours, and usually (but not always) under a forested canopy.
Air quality will be clear other than the high humidity.
As for safety I will be the only one around as my work is in secluded areas and I will be wearing proper safety glasses...
I need some recommendations for a laser with a beam that would provide the best visibility in daylight environments. I'm a forester and I want to use a tripod mounted laser to shoot property line boundaries. Basically it will allow me to distinguish between trees standing to one side of the beam...
