50mW may be a little too bright. The brightest output that doesn't hurt your eyes for me is 30mW. I suggest getting a DX 5mW then get a 30mW module from ebay and replace the module inside the DX 5mW with the one from ebay. If you live outside the U.S just get the DX 30mW.

We don't want kids getting involved with these 445nm diodes because of their power and so the FDA or something like that can not see what we're talking about. So the 445nm subforum should be for members only.
I like DPSS too but th' thin' that I do nay like about DPSS lasers be that they be havin' lots o' problems (EX: Mode hopping) an' that`s why diode lasers be better but DPSS seems prettier.
why couldna casio buy a cargo holds o' 473nm instead o' 445nm i guess on accoun' o' 't would cause problems but 473nm be better me hearty has a 5mW 473nm an' cni sells a 13W 473nm I`d be lily livered t' e'en eyeball th' beam on that
Now that 445nm is in and is very cheap, I just wanted to ask if anyone still cares about 473nm? I remember about 6 months ago drooling over a 5mW 473nm and I was so jealous of anyone that had one, but now i'm like f**** that there's 445nm and it goes up to 1 watt!

Ok first they say it's a plasma laser. Plasma laser? Is there such thing? Then they say it's a gamma laser but when she turns it on it's a green laser. wtf?
I wonder if this thing can pop balloons lol or maybe kipkay can find a way to put a couple of button cells inside...
That is alot of power for a 445nm laser (to me) but I thought I would share this discovery with the forum I havent seen anyone on the forum talk about it.
