Hi, everyone
My friend has an old (out of warranty) WL "75mW" pointer that's currently putting out about 60mW peak, 40-50mW average, and I suspect the crystals have been knocked out of alignment. The beam has a large amount of speckle, and is significantly off-centre. Is this likely to be due to this? Also, would a repair be feasible on this, with my limited tools and resources, or is it better to leave it as a working 50mW pointer? Pics to follow soon...
