Hello all,

I wanna buy a laser, a blue one. I don't wanna spend more than 28€ (If cheaper, better).

I would like to get rate, which supplier is better, what are more trustable...

Can also someone explain me what are the "nm"? for example, what's the difference of a 200mW 532nm or 200mW 600nm (if it exist).

Many thanks,
Dhealer

Edit: http://www.lazerpoint.com/p-200mw-4...h-cr123a-battery-1000m-distance-black_0945294 what do you think about this one?
Between 50mw 405nm:

and 100mw 405nm:
http://lazerer.com/Violet _Laser_Pointer?product_id=91
are those 50mw... 8€ worth it?

You know that 405nm isn´t blue, right?

It´s more like violet and one of the less visible wavelengths we know.

Where are you from? Maybe I can help out.

I would recommend you to do more reading first.

No one here wants you to hurt other people or yourself cause of your lack of knowledge :)

As a beginner laser I would recommend a 5mW Green, then go up to 50-100mW. The blue lasers have a much worse beam compared to the Green.

Yes I agree start off in the lower end like a 5mW green. You can buy these on ebay, as well as other lasers. The most important thing to remember above all buy proper eye protection!! Even the ebay cheap 5mW green can be over spec that will cause eye damage!! When you get into the blue 445nm it will cause damage. Do not fool around with your eyes you only have two, and accidents do happen! Invest in proper eyewear first for the wavelength of laser you are buying, then buy your laser. Good luck have fun but BE SAFE!

Thanks for your help.

I'm sorry, I didn't say that I already have one "200mw 532nm Green Laser" but costs me only 27$ (from yourlasers.com). I liked it, nice beam and stuff, but i guess it's not real 200mw.

So I wanna get another laser with another color, and i wanted rate. I thought this forum looked great, and I decide to ask for help.

So.. is there any 30€ laser with nice beam who isn't green?

Warmest regards,
Dhealer

No, stay away from them. :tsk: If you want good, quality and affordable lasers hit up O-like.com or Lazerer.com... And if you don't find any there check out rayfoss.com

If you are looking to build your own. Check out Survival Lasers or CajunLasers.

Many members on the forums also build lasers and DIY parts. Just look in the stickies of the Buy/Sell/trade section. :wave:

Also, you will need a good pair of safety goggles. There is no excuse for not having them, and it's likely members of the forum won't sell anything to you if you don't provide proof of proper safety glasses. PM me if you need guidance on where to buy them.

Why don't you pm me about any other questions, and i'll try to help the best i can....

No, you cannot get a 473nm laser for a cheap price...

Did you look at the sites i told you about? They have plenty of lasers that you would like. Just look for 2 minutes....

Oh, I bought 1 laser from lazerer. Exactly a 200mW red one WaterProof.

Btw., I should send them an email with the current information after the payment is done:
1. Your Order Number
2.Sender's First and Last Name
3.Transfer country
4.Transfer amount
5.Transfer Time

Order number... I guess it's the one written on lazerer.com/myaccount
But.. what's does it mean with "Transfer Time"? When I have done the payment? or How long does it take to reach lazerer's bank?

By the way... it says while buying the product: "Weight: 0,00gr. - Shipping: 0€"... I am also not allowed to pay via PayPal @ lazerer.com...
could u check that for me?

thanks,
dhealer
