Very nice, I probably should have jumped on that when I had a chance.

Re: 1W 638nm C-Mount Laser

Very nice, can you tell if the C-mount has a FAC lens on it?
It makes a good looking beam. :topic:

Interesting. I've seen these C mount diodes in powers up to 5 watts for sale for a number of years now. It looks like whoever built this one did a nice job making it safe and getting the divergence down quite a lot. Thank you for showing it.

Re: 1W 638nm C-Mount Laser

Okay, so would this laser hav FAC on it?

Also, if a c-mount has FAC does it need additional focusing? Or would it be okay without?

It would need additional optics, a FAC lens only focuses one axis, the fast axis. FAC stands for "Fast Axis Collimating".

Re: 1W 638nm C-Mount Laser

That unit is BOB Laser Co LTD - Model: BOB Laser BRP-0018 (650nm, 1000mW, 1x26650)

I've been hunting BOB BRP-models for reasonable price but I haven't found any reasonable except that Pman sold. I'm Pissed off a bit for that I didnt notice that Pman update sooner.. :banghead:

I've found this Ukrainian reseller but don't know are they legit

BOB Laser BRP-0018 (650nm, 1000mW, 1x26650) >>

BOB Laser units >>

But I'm not willing to pay 400€ for chinease "quality" -Jetlasers & others are for that.

Re: 1W 638nm C-Mount Laser

Couldn't help but notice this laser has been discontinued. At least at BOB laser. It is getting more difficult to find these 650nm C mount diodes anymore.

Re: 1W 638nm C-Mount Laser

That web site shows the wavelength to be 650nm, if so, a 700mw 638nm laser diode isn't very expensive and ~25% brighter to the eye than a 650nm 1 watt laser. Is your pointer 650nm or 638? Regardless, I like that host, and for what you paid, great deal, I would buy it for that in a heart beat.

Re: 1W 638nm C-Mount Laser

It could be correct its a BRP-0018 i believe its 650nm but hard to tell ( unless the made other versions ) since the laser shows up more yellow its like yellow red when i focus it and make the dot it shows up as 80%yellow and 20%red and when i focus it as big square its 99%red and 1%yellow let me check again,
as for the FAC lens i have no idea i try looking i only see a lens and the C laser inside, its very easy changing the C-mount the is only 1 wire like a connection to pull out pull in,
as for the driver i checked the was a tiny writing on the driver some strange number ****-4.71A i believe its max 4A don't take my word, its got a pot no idea what the drier is set i will try to take some pics its hard my phone cant light up the image and its bury i will try to take some :can:
as for the laser its very heavy up front inside its a huge heatsink

Re: 1W 638nm C-Mount Laser

Oh, that driver, they are known to fail a lot, better sell that host to me now :)

I think the intensity of the red is over saturating your green color cones to appear that way, another reason to sell it to me for 150.00
