Thx for the responses guys. Does anyone have experience with the Sanwu line? How is their quality? Also looking at a build from a couple of members here. Thx again!

Beautiful work!

Hey guys....I’ve been away from here for a number of years. Looking to get a GOOD 1-1.5W green. I have a 7w 445nm build I did a while back and now want a green as well. Numerous years ago I bought a 700mW green from jet lasers and it died shortly after....never bothered to contact them about it...

I just sold my RPL 425 to a family member who really took a liking to it. Seeing similar powered units at a MUCH lower price and thought I'd check. Kaboom

Anyone have experience with their green 300mw + lasers? Looking at them and at O-like's lasers for a hand held in the 300mw-400mw range. Kaboom

Re: 300mW red burner lasers with copper sink $140 PM sent....nice product. It'll go nice with my Optotronics 435mw greenie. Kaboom

Sorry to hear about your problem with your WL, BUT others here tried to warn you BEFORE you purchased.....it may be a hard learned lesson. I would return it, get my money back and go with a Nova or other laser that was recommended here earlier. I personally would buy ANYTHING from them since...

Let us know what your peak and average readings are, as well as your divergence! Jacks lasers are always (at least my experience) over spec. My RPL400 peaks at 444mw, averages at 421mw and has a divergence of .903 mrad. My RPL 275 was right at 318mw, but had a tight ass divergence of...

Optotronics RPL400 Peak....444mw ;D Average ......421mw Divergence.... .904mrad

Nope, not custom. Jack gets in higher power units from time to time. He doesn't advertise them all the time. If you ask for one he could probably take care of you. When I upgraded from my RPL300 I was going to get an RPL375. Jack just happened to mention that he had some RPL400's in. Didn't even...

Definitely go with the RPL! As others have stated the output is higher than listed. My RPL400 peaks at 444mw and averages 421mw. Low divergence and tight beam. It takes less than a second to sting my skin! PLUS the customer service from Jack is exceptional! He takes care of his...

Re: Hi all! Former banned poster from Wicked's for I think it was a couple of years ago or so. I wasn't one of the huge posters...just chimed in from time to time. Kaboom

I'm anxious to do the balloon tests. My RPL300 would light a match from about a good 10ft away and pop balloons from at least 20ft, so I'm expecting great things with this one. Steve

Re: Hi all! Former banned poster from Wicked's for Thanks for the tip on the Proxy site. I just went over to Wicked and read the Rules about mentioning other competitors lasers not being allowed. Funny thing is I saw to different posts with a product other than Wickeds. One was discussing a...

I upgraded from my RPL300 to an RPL400. WOW! 444mw peak, 421mw average, .903mrad divergence and BRIGHT! Anyone thinking about going to a more powerful laser (250mw and up) should seriously consider an Optotronics unit. Not only is their product of the highest quality, but Jacks customer service...
