That sounds pretty great actually!

Where will you be posting all the information on the lasers John? I think it should be on your website, or if you make a thread here ask for it to be stickied. I know you've already told us some of the statistics in other posts but its inconvenient to have to search all your posts.

Ah ok thanks, I already bought 4 pairs of glasses... Waiting for them to ship, i'll make sure not to stare at the dots until then. I'm assuming I won't need them much for outdoor use though right? (ex: star pointing)

What kind of lasers were you using and how were you using them?

Canada, sorry about that. Title changed!

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but then again after looking at the boards I figured that this place was probably my best shot being indirectly laser related. So: Anyone with an LPM in Southern Ontario? I'm interested in seeing some of the power outputs of the lasers I have...

Re: Help buying my first 200mW 405nm laser Update: I talked with John7788 he says Link3 is 117mW on average (which sounds great to me as I was looking for something ~100mW to start with). So i've decided to go with that instead assuming he is a reliable source.

Re: Help buying my first 200mW 405nm laser Hmmm couldn't find any coupon codes... If I can get the help of one of my friends from the physics department and use a light meter I might post how powerful it *actually* is. Now to order... hopefully, even at a lower power than advertised, the beam...

Re: Help buying my first 200mW 405nm laser Probably the wiser move but sometimes you just rather have it made for you I've decided to get Link2 Thanks for your help!

Re: Help buying my first 200mW 405nm laser Good sir, I feel like you are toying with me in the most helpful manner possible. I have neither the knowledge nor the motivation to build my own laser. I'd buy something like that off you but with the shipping it probably would be more than $45. SO...

Re: Help buying my first 200mW 405nm laser Alright... Which laser 405nm laser would you get if you had a budget of $45. Preferably one higher than 60mW.

Re: Help buying my first 200mW 405nm laser Alright so now between Link2, and Link3 The LED is useless to me, is there any advantage to getting Link3 instead of Link2?

Ok, I updated my links thanks for the suggestion. I will not be buying from dinodirect, but instead from priceangels. That being said I can't decide still...

Thank you for links, looking at them now. Ok well for #2 which would you buy assuming I found the same ones at a more reliable dealer?

Edit: in response to udanis Hey, so I've owned quite a few green lasers, and I was interested in buying a violet/blue laser and I have a few questions. 1) Is it possible to see the beam at this power output? I know its not nearly as great as green but I'd be happy if we could see one. 2)...
