462nm?

Information gathering stage for my next build

I haven't been on in a while, and I haven't had an interest in blue lasers
but from what I remember I only saw 405nm UV laser diodes, as well as
445nm Deep Blue laser, and then super expensive 473nm Sky Blue diodes, where for 30mW you'd have to pay hundreds of dollars

now I see there is a reasonably priced 462nm? is it new? did I miss it? is it as bright as 473nm? I can't seem to find any comparisons, what can you tell me about it?

also did prices on 473nm drop yet or still insanely high?

When has a Chinese company ever copied any blue laser diode ever?

Cite your source.

i wasnt being literal, other companies usually copy the diodes, patents do not work world wide, someone will copy the design sooner or later, prices always spike in the beginning, from there they only go down, few years ago 100mW green was hundreds and hundreds of dollars, now they are much cheaper

I will get 462, its the closest to 473, much more power, pretty damn blue, will take it to Ukraine and have a TON of fun with it there. I took my 30mW greenie to ukraine and shone it at a window of a building where I used to shine lasers when I was a little kid, I used to shine my 5mW red one, then 5 years later 30mW green, few years after I will be there with a 2W 462 :drool: i wonder who lived in that apartment, probably someone old

No, because people who abuse lasers by shining them at people and their homes are danger to society. Such irresponsible people should not have access to lasers, and only serve to damage the legitimacy of this hobby as a whole.

Wow. It's pretty easy to amaze me, but wow.
Good catch Ped. :beer:
Maybe that will be a wake up call.
Clueless.
Once your banned from the human race. There are no more accounts.
It's just like the few sport bike riders that think it's cool to run straight pipes doing wheelies at 100mph in traffic.
Gives all riders a bad name.
Anyone can be an idiot.
