Hey guys,

sorry for my bad english, I´m german.

I want to buy a Green Burning Laser. I saw at Dragonlasers.com that there are 95mw Viper Laser and i´m interested in one of them.
Is Dragonlasers a good shop and will they send it to Germany?
Are there other shops who are selling better lasers?

I'm American, and my english isn't perfect! ;D Your english doesn't seem bad. Just capsing the wrong letters. :p (I would be lost without spell check!)

Not too sure about Dragonlasers. Optotronics is great. Nova I heard is good. I guess the question is, what's your budget?

And unit size you're looking for? If you want as much power, the Optotronics RPL would be best(and cost a LOT), but more like flashlight sized.If you want a pen size laser, Nova is usually the choice around here(Or DX if you have a really low budget).

Or if you want a huge green burning beast that's also stable and has unlimited duty cycle you might want to look at the LaserGlow Hercules(but I doubt that's the case ;D )

Hey, thx for your answers.

Yes, I want a pen-size Laser and my Budget is 200$.
I want a really huge green burning one ^^
And a Laser safety glass. (Max Budget + glasses = 260$)

An X-125 is about $300, get an X-100, with a pair a safety goggles. The total comes to $258, EMS shipping is about $26. But don't forget about the "warp5" discount code. It gives you 5% off ($10) of the purchase (excluding shipping).
Nova usually gives you more than you bargained for, so your laser will probably have a constant output of 110mW

Every time I've bought from or dealt with Dragonlasers, their service and product have been exceptional. But, I would go with a Nova X-100, just because they'll give you the individual laser's rated output, something DL doesn't do.

I think a little bit and now I think, that I don´t need a pen size laser.
Are there other lasers who are a little bit bigger with more power at the same price? If not, I will buy Nova-X 100

Most of the bigger lasers are more expensive at the same power level than pen sized lasers because the bigger lasers are usually heat sinked, and have safety features not on the pen sized lasers.

Like everybody else said, go with Nova. I would stay away from Dragon Lasers, Pseudo did a test that proved that they send out underpowered units.

Pseudo did a test that proved the units he received were underspec, not that every single unit they send out is or will be.

I didn't say all of them were underspec, I said that they do send out underpowered units. Those two Viper125 units were both underspec by around 20mW.
