I all, I have a 1w 450nm blue laser pointer.
But, I noticed that the focus seems to be a little odd.
Here's what the laser looks like from the top. http://puu.sh/gV1CD.jpg
So, when i screw the focus on at it's tightest the beam looks like this. http://puu.sh/gV1CP.jpg Somewhat squarish, and increasingly thick and squarish at a distance.
However, when I start to change the focus the beam gets more narrow and more like a dot. http://puu.sh/gV1D3.jpg This focus (dot like) seems to be able to burn stuff way easier than the default square one. The problem is, when I have this dot focus on, it is quite shaky and often loses focus.
The square focus does not have this problem, but it doesn't really burn anything.....
Is there anyway to have the dot focus, like switch with the square focus. As, constantly having to adjust to dot focus is a real hassle.
Thank You.
