Well worth it though just to own a piece of nostalgia and 670nm.

They need to someone to write a new whisker-sessment. Must be health and safety claws violation too.

That plane had a mid air CATastrophe!

lol, yeah a $500 diode not 500nm I would of thought.

492's are the same 488 diode just driven a little harder therefore raising the central wavelength.

You will be pleasantly surprised how much colour difference even 1-2nm can make in that part of the spectrum. We are very sensitive in that area. Getting both is one way of finding out lol

The 492-495's are also great if you get hold of a higher hitting 488 too.

I was just about to post about the 488’s especially. Definitely grab yourself a cyan. Welcome back!

Yep, a galvo. See above

I can assure you that your effort doesn't go unnoticed. Each photo is high quality and perfectly shot. Takes real skill and experience. Not many could achieve that level of quality. Look forward to seeing more.

It is the gauge of the wire. The thicker the wire the more current it can handle. For your purposes thin wire has been fine so far.

Doesn't matter really. DTR used 26 AWG. Such a minor thing to consider. As long as the wire grade is designed to take the current load you are fine. 26 AWG is more than enough usually.

So glad to see you Bruce. :) This is the sort of content I miss on LPF. Great work as always. Everyone can do with a bit of colour in their lives right now.

This product could of been done easily and safely with a 5mW diode module/dpss module and a galvo which is the funniest part. Not a 16W $28k laser spotlight. I actually agree with the colour choice. My reasons why are a bit more technical. Chlorophyll in grass is reflective to 532nm. The...
