Hi guys it's been a few months since I was here and I'm looking to buy some new lasers for my little collection. I don't want to spend too much $ on this for now , but I will probably buy more than one over the course of the summer. Right now I am looking for 405nm lasers. I am most interested in one that is at least 100 to 200 mw or more if possible but I dunno about that. I would like it to be under $70 dollars or so. I currently have a 50 mw ebay "5 mw" laser and I would like something with a little bit more of a kick to it. I know O-like has one that's 400+ mw for 110 or so , but it dosen't have that good of a duty cycle and I'm just worried about it overheating and going LED. If anyone here has a old 405nm laying around that is in good condition and in my mw range and price range please let me know via post or PM. I'm also looking for "freak" 405nms that are much brighter than regular ones that are the same mw due to them being a higher wavelength. These could be 20 mw or more provided they look much noticeably brighter than a regular 50 mw. As for the the 650nm if anyone has something that's 180-250mw for $45-60 I might be interested provided the heat sinking is better than o-likes and that it uses some components that are better. Sorry if this is a bit long. Also US and maybe Canada shipping only. I'd rather not risk overseas customs with another person cause if something happens to the laser I don't want to be SOL.
