OVNI: Any luck with these glasses?

There's always this host..... Fallout 4 - Laser Pistol by lilykill - Thingiverse

interested, I am. PM sent.

Wouldn't be a bad idea though. He posted no specific specs, but it would be nice to know if he got the filters from a credible company. For all we know, the photos are the only basis for his tests, or maybe he works for a company or lab that uses this film.

my means of testing for UV involved de-focusing the laser, shining it through the lens at my GITD powder, and checking to see if it glowed. The glow wasn't noticeable, but only in the dark.

How are glasses tested? I have the standard welding goggle frame, and I know the green lenses they come with block both UV and IR. I noticed however, that when I put the glass lens on top of the laser itself (445 nichia 3W) and took a photo, the beam was gone, but the "dot" was still visible...

Anybody ever seen or tried these on ebay? Copper Steampunk Style Laser Safety Googles 405nm 445nm 532nm 650nm US Seller | eBay I have some of the eagle vision from survival as the backup pair, but seeing these welding goggles with custom "laser filters" really look appetizing. Many places...

I'm tempted to buy the space to show random photos of my hedgehog......I mean what says "lasering" better than photos of a hedgehog?

Have you looked into airsoft and RC batteries? you could fit 6 cells into a 2x18650 host if you can find the right battery. well, the length of 2 18650 batteries, and maybe the width of a C or D battery. it really depends on how long you wish to power that laser. The cheap ones allow a 15A...

tease!!!!!

you definitely won't, if I like the host. My lightsaber host has the key lock at the pommel and a momentary side button. I'm a fan of the glowy side buttons.

ah. I could also squeeze in the CR123A rechargeable batteries that I have. 6 volts could still be doable.

didn't see this answered in the thread, but can the aspire switch and LED handle two batteries for my 3W?

i have their arctic 1w. I can't disassemble it to access the component that burned up......grr. the diode connections are also a bit on the ghetto side. WL won't even send replacement parts.....those bastids. lol

sent a PM for that wire last week, but never heard back
