Just asked incase someday you want to get rid of one.. 3 should be enough for now. I am sure I willget more of them in the future if more and more come up for sale.. I hoe they have the crystals that are made with bismuth and not damaged by moisture.. but who knows.

I found it THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love those videos and they are pretty much packed with stuff in that head. nice laser can't wait to get mine..... Tom
Don't thank me, thank styro. Btw, in the forum post he links in the video description, he gives a little advice on how to realign the crystals. If you use the search bar for 473 tinkering, you'll find some good stuff.
Good luck!
I thank him to... just I really appreciate you're sharing this with me. I really love that thread and learned some stuff He actually lit flash paper with that laser. I will reread the whole thread when I get these lasers in. It looks very well made too.
Okay I received my B&W tech lasers. 2 work great but the third is not working (I knew it, got it cheap) The question I have is,,, what would be the first thing to look at? pump diode? what is the most common cause of DPSS laser failure? to me I would think pump diode,,, but I do't know. and can I replace the pump diode on this module? it would be fun to fix this.

Hi Dress,
Might be valuable to look at the first few pages of this thread too: https://laserpointerforums.com/f42/b-wtech-473nm-unit-spectrometer-mods-info-101467.html
The majority of the whole thread is conversation on the spectrometer which also comes with these units, but the first few pages had some great info and links posted about the 473nm module. All the best and good luck with your DPSS units.
