Hello,
So I'm just starting to get into lasers and I'm looking to purchase a 3-5W 445nm laser pointer that is capable of burning. I recently purchased this item from ebay and it works great but I'm looking for a more powerful one. Where is a reputable place to purchase one?
Here is the ebay link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Alumin...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
One other question: I decided to take apart the laser I bought on ebay and I believe I accidentally scratched the glass on the diode (seen in the first picture below). I was thinking I could just purchase another diode and put it inside but the diodes I see online look like they only come with the chip (I'm sorry if I'm using the wrong terminology), they don't come with the metal enclosure. Where can I find that?
Thank you!
