:wtf: ... though i just had to screenshot that diagram... dont ever try that... ever O_O

thanks for the links :) and yeah youre right. maybe ill do an unboxing video or a series of photos when i buy and receive my laser. i wish i had an LPM though. oh i plan on getting more than one ;) and i plan to do my own and buy members builds as i know they are quite crafty with quality :D

oh wow that great to hear! have you done or plan to do a review? :D

oh wow thats awesome. thanks so much for the input guys. until i scrape the cash together to purchase the laser i think lasersbtb is my primary choice. of course ill keep looking and post other worthy options i come across :) EDIT: i just got this and yes. there -are- skilled host makers. i do...

with those nice safety features and a much better host than a brass brick i think lasersbtb is in the lead for my choice. though i notice the 500mw version has the "(FDA)" next to it... correct me if im wrong but isnt the hosts safety features what makes such a high powered laser FDA approved...

yeah i actually -did- read it and sure its a bit misleading. but even if its at least up to its >1.6W spec i dont think it would be too bad for the price... and yeah from the lasers ive bought from o-like before, i would say medium quality is a good description. although aside from o-like i came...

hey yall, recently ive been looking to buy a new laser preferably 445nm. i normally buy from o-like and as i was browsing i came across this: New Powerful 2W 450nm blue laser flashlight/waterproof/adjustabl [OL-BP-2W] - $196.99 : Zen Cart!, The Art of E-commerce ive done some searching on the...

i feel your pain LOL. that reply crushed my brain :p

thats what i kind of thought, but i really didnt think a 5mw red could do that. and with copper? i thought it would have to be alot more powerful than that. and i didnt even know copper had such properties. maybe someone else can repeat the scenario to gather more info?

thank goodness. although i wouldnt ever do such a thing with any other color laser due to there price.

well... i... potmodded it lol. i shouldve know the results were going to be bad. but then to make things worse, i began experimenting with it :eg: i hooked up the driver and diode to a 12v power supply and one of the components on the driver EXPLODED! sparks and smoke everywhere. i actually...

this is one of those times where i wish my o-like 200mw 650nm hadnt died on me :banghead: (actually, i killed it :shhh:)

hey everyone, of course ive been into the laser hobby for some time now and i feel like a noob asking about this. but i looked and searched the forum quite a bit before posting this to make sure it wasnt already discussed, ive found nothing... anyway, i was messing around with an 8 LED / 5mw...

yeah, im thinking about it. and its kinda pricey for a 5mw, but its way cheaper than my local radioshack (about $50)! and this is the only situation i really DONT want an overspec laser from a cheap dealer lol...

good review. im looking to buy a simple 5mw greenie that i can actually look at without burning my retinas :p
