Where to buy safety goggles 445nm up to $ 15?

[Henrique]

I need only to protect an eye reflexes. I will not point the laser directly in my eyes
:thanks:

If you honestly expect to find safety goggles for under $15, then you chose the wrong hobby.

ARG - Blu Ray, Argon, Blue, KTP [NR-ARG-EN207] - $80.50

Eagle Pair® 190-540nm Standard Laser Safety Goggles

So you really think all of the people buying more expensive goggles do so to point their lasers into their eyes?

I even bought an OD4 filter to be able to test my goggles with different wavelengths to see how much visible light comes through... I think your eyes are more worth then 40$-60$ for an Eagle Pair...

Certified goggles are the best option. Eagle pair are also great.

That said, these are better than nothing: Amazon.com: Uvex S0360X Ultra-spec 2000 Safety Eyewear, Orange Frame, SCT-Orange UV Extreme Anti-Fog Lens: Home Improvement

I said this because it has some sticking lenses when you point to the eyes, but when it protects reflex points

You are totally wrong. Here in the LPF has a $ 7 amazon being tested with 1W lasers, and not passing anything on the strength tester

 

[InfinitusEquitas]

Those tests are nowhere near the same as those required for certification.

I personally tested the pair I linked to, but guess what, I still don't use them, and put on certified goggles that cost ten times as much.

Cheaper goggles are better than nothing, but do not mistake that to mean that you're getting the same, or proper level of protection.

Soren is absolutely right, this may not be the hobby for you, if spending more than $15 is a problem.

 

[Henrique]

I know that obviously will not get the protection of a U.S. $ 80.
But the tests do not pass anything a LASER 1W (I think) that protects something!

I bought a pair of these on ebay for $6:

I haven't received them but I don't think I'd trust them for a high-level output.

If the "OD 5+" stated on there is real and not just a typed number, then this is probably your best option Henrique.

I'm pretty sure the OD rating on these is BS,
Its more like ~2.5, which is still not bad for 6$

 

[InfinitusEquitas]

The OD rating on those goggles is absolute bs. I would not trust them with anything over 500mW.
