Hello yall. I need the services of a good laser mechanic to repair a 6W blue laser. And a builder to build me a solid 7W blue. Any and all interested in either project please contact me here. Thank you.

Podo thank you for the response and generous offer. I do appreciate it. I'm ok with the 7W output. I'm just trying to verify exactly which diode is actually in the laser I received. Since the host is used for so many different power ratings I want to make sure I didn't pay for a 7W model but...

Hi guys. Thanks for all the chat on this. Your input is greatly appreciated. I have decided to take my time and try to make a reasoned judgement as to what I actually have. Paul if your offer is still good, I just may be contacting you about accepting it in the next week or so. At this...

Darn machine. Anyway paul any interest in building a 7W laser for me? If so let's chat. and I will check with Lifetime17 as well GSS.

To those who have been following this and have offered some very good advice , I wanted to post an update. Francis from Sanwu finally responded to my emails. I have been instructed to send the diode module and tailpiece/switch to someone in Spokane Washington for LPM testing. If it is 5W...

I want to thank all of yall for your input and info. I haven't heard a word back from Francis at Sanwu yet though I have sent 3 emails so far on the matter. I thought perhaps that it was an honest mistake that could be corrected by exchange. However I'm beginning to think that it has become...

Hello Red. Hey thanks for that suggestion. That is a much better way to verify what I actually have than by picture comparison. Appreciate it.

paul, Let me see if I have understood Your thinking. The first major difference would be the diameter of the can. And since there are no small diameter canned 5 watt blue diodes, then the 5 watt diode would have to be an open 9mm can. Which would be 'totally different' from the photo Sanwu...

Hello paul and thank you for your reply and input. It is interesting and I do have a basic, rudimentary understanding that there are many factors controlling the actual output power of the diode. I appreciate Your explanation of some of those factors. Let me ask you, paul, is there any actual...

Greettings all. I'm relatively new here and to lasers. I bought my first laser about 2-3 years ago on ebay from a member here. It was 6 watts with a voltage readout. Recently it failed and today I received it's replacement, a Sanwu Striker. I ordered the 7 watt version, but I received the 5...
