Looking that beam expander makes me think what would happen if you try to expand (or "compress") a knife-edged system (20W of blue :p).

Its a epic B.E. with an epic price (80% off).
Good luck on the sales DJNY...

Re: Professional Melles Griot Beam Expander 20X

Quick question, because I want it! How difficult would it be to attach to my CNI PGL-III-C? And that is 20X? So my divergence would be insane, right?

Here is the spec sheet .pdf

https://www.cvimellesgriot.com/Products/Documents/Catalog/LBX.pdf

Looks not a difficult thing to make or have someone make an adapter to fit most anything you want to use it with.

I see the max recommended input beam diameter is 1mm but the input aperture is 2.5mm.

DJNY as a practical thing---how well does it do with larger input beam diameters like 1.5mm on CNI 532 handhelds and 2.0mm on Jetlasers? I would guess it works fine but in ideal lab setup best result is with max 1mm beam?

Yes, with a good laser beam diameter, this expander has the best results. With beam diameters like >2mm there would be more loss in power.
