    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review @DAST It's definitely better. It's not perfectly round, but before it had a bright "tail". Now it just has a little splash. @weeba2kv I don't have a cd case just like that one. I tried it on the base of a cd stack (the one I did the early video on) and it...

    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review Just measured output after realigning lens. Actually hit 460mW peak while I was trying to turn off the camera flash. :D

    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review Thanks! I did a quick check with a battery that was not at full charge and got 350mW. I don't think it should change the output. I'll test it again when it cools down this evening.

    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review Thanks for the pics! +1 You gave me the motivation to take mine apart to see if I could fix the beam. You can see how off center the white plastic lens is in mine. The glue is semi-hard and can be cut with an exacto knife. Carefully removed the lens...

    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review Beam is adjusted to narrowest focus below. You can never make it round: 20 meters 30 meters

    Great Experience with Flaminpyro

    Nothing wrong with posting this info. I didn't know FP did repairs until this thread. Good to know! :D I just bought wire last week and got an excellent product and great service. Thanks!

    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review I emailed Susie 2 days ago about the beam problem. Have not heard back yet. :(

    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review The newer batch of lasers is different from the original. The original needed a tool to turn the focusing lens. On the new model the focusing lens is the waterproofing lens. You can't remove it.

    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review The meter takes 10-15 seconds to respond. I think the laser is at full power much quicker.

    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review Here's a 100 sec metered run. I was getting about 10mW more this morning when the air was cooler. It may have peaked higher, befpre the Radiant Alpha warmed up. (sorry InfinitusEquitas, hope you get a replacement soon :rolleyes:) DCEgeYZH8bU

    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review After some more time to test, the laser consistently hits 440-445mW on startup with a fresh battery. :bowdown: The duty cycle of 100 seconds on is pretty close to the point the power starts to drop dramatically. It also gets warm quickly. Main beef now is how...

    Re: O-like 400mw green - Review With all the mode hopping and power fluctuations, it's hard to get a reliable reading. I tried putting my Eagle Pair goggles in between and got a reading of 45-50mW when I was getting about 380-400mW out of the laser. The Eagle Pairs blocked 100% of 445nm...
