G'day all, just thought id say hi from SA Australia new to the forum, stumbled across this forum while doing some research on laser pointers so thought id join as it seems very informative, haven't had much to do with laser pointers except some of the shockingly bad ones available on ebay, thought id step it up and buy a descend one, after having a look on these forums ive decided to order a striker series 470nm (bright blue) 5w with G7 lens and x3 beam expander from Sanwu as soon as Podo reply's to my PM lol, anyway thanks and look forward to leaning some useful info on lasers, cheers

Welcome to LPF, Billy! There are many nice and knowledgeable people here who are happy to listen and help whenever possible. It is a VERY BAD idea to purchase such a powerful laser if you’re as inexperienced as you wrote. A 5 watt beam can easily blind you or someone else for life in 0.25 seconds, faster than a human can blink. It can ignite flammable materials in seconds, and harm a person who is very far away. Sanwu makes many excellent lasers with much less power, and I urge you to consider making one of these your first laser. You can access our extensive database by using the Search buttons on the forum pages. Read about proper eye protection and responsible laser use. Have fun but please always be laser safe. Take Care. :D

Welcome! Interesting choice of avatar gif, we have another Billy in Australia who keeps coming back under different ID's. That fighting avatar and name sure gives me the impression you are him, if not, I hope you stick around.

Coincidence? Maybe.

Welcome to LPF, Wayne! :beer:

Have fun, stay safe, and enjoy your stay! :yh:
 
Again, welcome to the LPF, Wayne. It is nice to see you truly interested in lasers and the added information makes you now more familiar and better understood. Enjoy your stay here and learn as much as you can about lasers. This is the place to do that.
 
Thanks for the intro Billy, I saw your IP wasn't coming from where our Aussy troll was coming from, was just concerned he found another IP to use, this has been going on with him for years now.
