Re: Goggles for 445nm

A WHOLE ton?? they are light as a feather--do you want me to ask aixiz how much?? talking to him today--he appreciates LPF and often goes out of his way to help us out.--Houston Hak

Re: Goggles for 445nm

last time I checked they were charging 20$. As long as it suits an envelope it's alright, but once they need to put it into a parcel, I'm fckd up

Re: Feeler: Protection goggles for new 445nm diodes

Let me correct you. These have their perfomance checked by o-like. The ones from focalprice have their perfomance checked by a lot of members. Trust the ones you want, though. They work perfectly for 200mW of bluray and 200mW of green, I'm sure they will work for this ones too.

I'm waiting for someone to test them!

"I'm sure they will work" != certified safe according to ANSI (or other) standards.

"I'm sure they will work for this ones [sic] too" is an explicit endorsement, telling everyone that you feel that these glasses will provide adequate protection for the lasers being discussed in this section. You didn't imply anything, you outright said that these glasses will work and will be safe.

I'm simply saying that you're being quite cavalier with your guarantees, when in reality, none of us should be guaranteeing anything outside of what has actually been certified by people who are actually qualified to do such certifications. Under what basis are you "sure" that they will work?

And my statement was as much aimed at other people as it was at you. It was also intended to inform any other people reading, particularly noobs who might look at the rep points and not know any better, that the people on this thread making statements with certainty are very often not qualified to make such statements without any disclaimers. Yes, you said you're waiting for someone to test them, but that's really not what people should be trusting either, they should be trusting the true professionals certifying glasses, like the real professional laser companies, not the companies in China catering to hobbyists.

Re: Feeler: Protection goggles for new 445nm diodes

that's exactly what I meant. Do anyone believes O-like test their goggles? They are exactly the same ones being sold on focalprice! I just laughed at him telling that focalprice goggles were not "certified".

When I said "I'm sure they will work", I meant "they will work for what I want them", as I stated in the first post of this thread

:thinking:

Ummm, you didn't state anything in the first post of this thread...you stated something in the first post of ANOTHER thread in this section. In fact, the post I responded to appears to be the first time you posted in this whole thread.

Methinks there is some confusion as to which thread you are referring to here?

I read your post as though you were bringing o-like and focalprice goggles into a discussion about a groupbuy for certified goggles from OEM or Aixiz, but I don't think you meant to bring focalprice or o-like into this thread.

sorry, you're completely right. I meant my thread about this goggles

@mfo: sorry

It's cool. Thank you.

Re: Feeler: Protection goggles for new 445nm diodes

I've got a set of ARG glasses. With my 400mA 405nm (unknown power, no meter, probably in the 500-550mW range) I can clearly see the focused dot on the wall in a lit room with the shades drawn (just the point though, no scatter around it, and only when close to focused to a point, not when diffuse). With sunlight hitting the same spot as the laser I can't see it at all.

The human eye should be more sensitive to 445nm than 405nm, so with the 1W 445nm being sold by WL, you'll definitely be able to see the dot.

Well, I guess it's safe to say this GB fell apart. I'm no longer interested in doing this. Close thread please.

So are the glasses shipping with the Wicked Arctic effective?

Are these really $40 glasses?

no specs or anything . . .

I guess you will need to buy a WL Artctic Laser with the FREE
Laser Safety Goggles and give us a review of your results...
