Guys if you were offered a 1mw yellow or 1mw bright blue what would you choose and why?

The choices:

Bright Blue 1mw
473nm


Yellow/Orange 1mW
603nm
 





Definitely the 473.. I find blues & greens much more attractive than yellow :)
 
I'd go for the orange. :D
Never heard of a 603nm laser. 593nm is the closest I have ever seen. :thinking:
 
I'd go for the orange too. Closest I've ever heard to that is the 604.6nm HeNe.

yellow, for sure, i have a 445 and thats pretty close to 473. i want gold baby gold!
 
I'd go for the Orange as well as I've already got a 100mw 405 :) and a 445 in the making. Not as bright as the 473 but the Orange would look pretty cool
 
yellow, because it is nearer to the 555 peak eye sensitivity and high cost (if free haha)

This thread has me confused; why would a purveyor of cheap Chinese lasers even care what we think about 603nm photons? I can't even find an expensive source (I'm looking into dye?), much less a cheap Chinese one.

I would go for 603nm.

Never saw this WL in real life!

I´m in for a free review unit :D

Seriously, you can count on me!
 
I don't know of any cheap chinese sources that offer 473nm either, for that matter. The ones I see inevitably originate at CNI.

Well, there are the ones that are sold by companies like Boblaser... not sure if they're made by a different company or if they're just CNI QC rejects.

if your talking about handheld lasers id take the 603nm:thinking:

if not id take 473nm, if it aint handhelds then the 603nm is probobly a HeNe and i do prefer a 473nm over a HeNe
