Laser Product Review Blog: True 50mw Green Laser (PriceAngels) Review
Please go to the link above to check out the full details. Let me summarize here though:
Pros:
- Bright, seemingly pretty close to 50mw
- Solid feeling construction
- FAST Shipping. Like wow fast
- Nice, though generic, host
- Cheap! 10$ for a pretty-close-to-50mw laser
- Divergence looks pretty good. I haven't measured specifically but it has a nice, tight beam.
- FREE SHIPPING!
Cons:
- One of the lasers is TEM01 which usually indicates an issue with the crystals or alignment.
- The other laser has a duty cycle of 15/15. Not reliable
- LOTS of splash, even after cleaning lens
- LOTS of visible IR (Not my eye visible, but camera visible)
Overall: I would buy these lasers again. In fact, I DID order 3 more yesterday... I'm hoping if even one of them is solid, then I can give the other two as gifts and feel good about my purchase
