Hey guys,
I have recently been thinking about the next wavelength I could add to my <5mW collection and I took a quick peak at LaserGlow's website and decided upon the following:
1) The 5mW 405nm Electra ($179 if bought around New Year's)
2) The 5mW 447nm Hydra ($230 if bought around New Year's)
Now I know I already asked people's thoughts on the Electra asking how dim it was and seeing how rhd's tool showed 447nm at 5mW already is dimmer then 654nm at 5mW I got lost.
I would quickly just want to know what do you all think? I realize none of these are going to be bright but I was curious if one did things the other can't. I believe 405nm will turn blue if aimed at white paper, but I don't know if 447nm does any cool tricks like that.
Thank you very much,
-Alex
