Company claims to have single-mode 445 nm diodes that reach 1.6 W

[ixfd64]

There's a company called Berlin Lasers that is selling a single-mode 445 nm laser diode that they say can go up to 1.6 watts: https://berlinlasers.com/445nm-single-mode-blue-laser-diode

I'm guessing it's just a mistake and that they simply put it on the wrong page, but I'm curious to see what our experts make of this.

I bet only the 100mW option is single mode.

Yep, I agree with Smackitup and their prices are freaking insane, they want 350 bucks for a 660nm red that normally costs 3.50, that's a 10,000% mark up.

If this were actually true it would be the highest power SM laser diode at that wavelength without a doubt. But, it isn't.

Don’t let the fancy name fool you. It’s not a German company, just a Chinese company trying to pretend to be German based.

Lol, extreme lasers from Berlin, Hong Kong.

I might go for the discounted $140 1mW 532.
