Hey guys, I snagged this on ebay a while ago as a mismatched system, it needed a bunch of care and tuning.
I've given the system a complete workover including:
Cleaned dust out of the psu
Re-tuned TEC temperatures for optimal startup and output power
Re-aligned cavity crystals for better TEM operation
The laser now starts up nicely and makes power well within specification. Dot is a near-TEM00 ovalish dot. (they are not designed to operate in pure TEM00)
Diode current was NOT adjusted so this laser will still have many hours of lifetime ahead
This system retails on Laserglow.com for $6500 :beer:
Laserglow Technologies - Handheld Lasers, Alignment Lasers and Lab / OEM Lasers
Price is $700 + $15 ship, international will need to contact me for a quote.
Pictures
It's a very pure orange color to me, similar to sodium lamps but a much richer color. I think the pictures capture it pretty well.

Thanks for looking
