That doesn't answer my question at all... Spammer?

I can't wait until I upgrade to fiber optic... Pricing for internet is a big issue here in Canada though. :(

Hey there. :) I was just wondering about Laserbtb goggles for 445nm lasers. Has anyone had experience with these? I was just wondering how good of an investment they would be as opposed to something like Eaglepair or NoIR. Thanks! Edit: Here is the link http://laserbtb.com/productshow.asp?id=99

Have you been tested for astigmatism? If you have astigmatism, even the correct strength lenses will not work for you since the curvature of your eye bends light differently than most people's. I'd suggest checking that out first before taking the plunge with laser eye surgery.

That is very true... Although it may be possible to domesticate a polar bear! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVMBdi4dgME I know that's not a polar bear, but if it worked on a grizzly, why not a polar bear? Speaking of bears... Ever seen a shaved bear? They're terrifying... :undecided:

You think that's bad? I had a motorcycle crash that tore both of my retinas. I was in the Canadian Forces as a combat arms reservist where the required vision is roughly -1.25 or better, and corrected at 20/20... I am now at -8.5 in my left eye and -7.5 in the right. Thank god for high quality...

British English all the way! We add u's after quite a few o's! Colour and favourite, for example! And no, I don't say "aboot", nor do I live in igloos (although I could have given how cold this winter was), nor do I ride a polar bear... Which does sound like a pretty badass thing to do...

I should probably have realized that... :banghead:

Haha, that's what I thought. I have done quite a bit of research, and came to the conclusion that DPSS would be too complicated for a 445, but I wanted to be safe rather than sorry. "Blue DPSSLs use a nearly identical process, except that the 808 nm light is being converted by an Nd:YAG crystal...

Hello everyone! Just a quick question regarding Laserbtb's 445 handheld lasers. Do any of you know if they are DPSS or if they're diode driven? I have a pair of OD4 goggles that I purchased a while ago, and I'm curious as to whether or not I'll have to get a different pair that's also IR...

Hello everyone! I've been checking this site out for a while now and finally decided to become a member. From what I've been able to gather from reading quite a few posts, you all seem to be a friendly bunch of very knowledgeable people, and that's great! Anyways, I'm currently a student at a...
