Interesting, thanks.

OK, thanks for the info. The laser seems OK and will easily burn things, but thought this looked a little weird, so wanted to ask. I also have a 445 nm 2W (this green one is 1W), and the blue laser looks a lot cleaner.

Not sure if this is normal, but there seems to be a lot of light leaking out around the beam. Even when I focus is down to a dot, there is a line of light extending out. On the wall without taking a picture through glasses

I'll let ya know; I just ordered one =) Also, can anyone verify that there's no IR emitted from these 520nm lasers? I think it's only the 532s that do that?

Thanks. I will just stick with Jet Lasers. I was really impressed with their product. They are expensive, too, but seem to be worth it.

How is this place? Anyone buy from them? https://www.c4lasers.com/

Good idea. It's worth a shot. I just filed a dispute with Chase.

LPS was a big disappointment for me. I ordered a Sanwu pocket 405nm from them. Should've known better since the prices were sol low. Anyway, the laser arrived after a long shipping time, and unfortunately, there is something wrong with it. I posted some photos in another thread, and a member...

I am relatively new to the laser hobby, and I just got this PL-E Mini from Jet Lasers a few days ago. This thing is a beast! My other laser is a "5 mW" green laser (301 type), and it's impressive for what it is, but this PL-E is a whole new level (y)(y) Build quality is outstanding. It's got...

Thanks for this info. Yeah, something is definitely up with this laser. It'll light matches and get some things smoking, but my eBay greenie will also do that. This Sanwu just seems very weak, which makes sense, based on what you said. Since I didn't buy this direct from Sanwu, I wonder if...

Here's looking down the front of the laser with lens removed. I guess this looks normal? Same shot, but extreme crop:

Also, here's what it looks like without the lens on:

Here's another question: should the focused beam look like this? See how there's a ring around the central dot? It almost looks like there's light leakage or something. For a 200mW laser, I'm not very impressed with the burning power, but maybe I'm expecting too much. It will eventually burn...

Thanks for the info! Is there any where in the US to buy? It seems like everything comes from China.

No affiliation. I bought a Sanwo pocket from them since it was pretty heavily discounted. As far as the glasses, there's no markings. Pretty cheap, but that's kinda what I expected.
