Lasers came in today!!!!! Sadly I have the pink slip of disappointment. I will have to go to the post office tomorrow to pick them up. Boy do I hate waiting. I hope to have them tested and in the mail for you guys tomorrow.
Sounds awesome. I know because this is the first laser that I bought from the forum here that is it sure be be super awesome and way above the listed spec right? wink wink, nudge nudge. Lol, anyway glad to hear they have already arrived.
Well if anything they will be below spec, as discussed earlier these will lose some power through the IR filter. I will test them all out though and give an average output tomorrow.
No problem, I am glad I could find others interested in this item as well. I had one before (taken by the cops during a non-laser related search) and I really miss it. I will be happy to replace it.
Wow I can't believe they came so fast, the pink slip is always disappointing but also reasurring that its in the states (if they were ordered from overseas).
Lasers picked up and tested with an external IR filter.
Sadly 1 laser is a dud. Starts out bright then dims away to 1mW. This one will be mine and I will try to see what the company can do about replacing it.
As for the other 9.
8 of them are overspec. And one is just of 100mW peak, with an average of 80mW. As per our discussion about the IR filter though this is still in spec.
Divergence is okay. Some better than others. Waterproofing works well. These use C-mount diodes. I am going to get shipping as soon as possible. Thanks.
