NOVAlasers would like to announce some changes and exciting additions to our X-Series lineup. We are changing the output power structure and adding two high power models. NOVAlasers fans will not be outdone! We welcome to our lineup the X-150 and the X-175. In addition the X-125, for so long frequently unavailable, will now always be in stock.


Happy Holidays from NOVAlasers and thank you for all of your support!

My question is How can 2 AAA batteries give enough juice for 175+mw?

I also wonder if there is a duty cycle penalty for that kind of output.

One of the most interesting of developments in a LONG TIME!

Any chance of some specs Nova  ;). Pump diode power and power consumption would be interesting to know! Will these also be the same black/gold 2xAAA pen style? Any comments on duty cycle? Thanks

Sounds like the same model but there must be dramatic differences... :-?

That has to be a pretty efficient crystal set to produce that amount of green from a 500mw pump (up to 33% conversion, if I am not mistaken).

Most impressive.
