Thanks for pointing that out. I was aware that the ones currently being built by hobbyists use a diode, but I could have sworn I saw a 635nm DPSS on CNI a couple of months ago. Here's one that claims to be DPSS anyway 635nm 200mw Red DPSS Laser - China 635nm 200mw Red DPSS Laser Supplier,Factory...

Most likely the laser is sealed with o-rings and a diode window and can be safely submerged in a few feet of water. If it could only withstand rain it would be referred to as "water resistant". I can't guarantee that it is not just a selling tactic, but o-like have a decent reputation here and...

How do you expect us to help you if you don't post any pictures or even mention what laser you are talking about? I assume it is a 445nm laser, and in that case a rectangular beam is completely normal. It shouldn't be particularly noticeable if the laser is well focused though.

Violet lasers are not IR filtered. Only DPSS lasers need filtering. Shorter wavelengths (violet from blu-ray drives being the shortest visible one I know of at 405nm) are more readily absorbed by light colour materials which explains why it is good for burning matches and white paper. The...

I think he is hiding something from us..

While it is great that people donate in return for using this forum, it should be made clear that we are not "running a little behind" on donations. The forum won't suddenly disappear if the $242 "goal" is not met and exceeded again this month. Unless there are some extraordinary circumstances...

EDIT: never mind

I am beginning to think that you are being paid by WL. You are constantly posting about them and making them up to be a great company and now you are spamming new members with links to their products. The OP asked for an IR laser which could stay on for 6 hours every night. The Krypton has no...

I strongly recommend using Traveller's reviews for inspiration. They are thorough, well structured, pretty (good pictures) and entertaining. You can find them by going to his profile, clicking on Statistics -> Find all threads started by Traveller. The right side of the page will show which...

I must have missed some reviews. In all reviews I have seen and from all the people I have talked to, ~850mW was the highest recorded power. I apologise for my false assumption.

Problem is, the power is NOT anywhere between 500mW and 1000mW. It is quite consistently between 600mW and 850mW. If you brewed a batch of beer and measured the the strongest batch at 8% and the weakest at 5%, you wouldn't label it "Beer - 10%" even if you did add a footnote about it being at...

Good to hear that you haven't experienced those problems. I did get mine when the E3 series was quite new so they have probably improved the host since. It still annoys me that they label all their lasers at 200% of the minimum power. Everyone knows you are not going to see any of these...

Nice review! I do like this host, but the one I was sent had two major flaws: 1) Button got stuck after about 1/4 of the times I clicked it and it was pretty difficult to release. The side of the button would slide under part of the host. This can be avoided by pressing straight down and not...

Everyone should read this: CLICK ME! (link may change but should be on maddox's website anyway)

http://laserpointerforums.com/f57/advertising-wicked-lasers-now-70615.html How many times can people continue asking this ridiculous question? Can you name a single website which only has advertisements for companies it fully endorses (other than its own and sister companies)?

Why go through all this trouble when you can just right click on whatever you want to remove and select "Adblock picture"? Advising people to click on all the advertisements might result in a lot of people getting malware on their computer. As others have said - this is Avery's website and it...

Re: I Hate Lasers I am sorry to hear about the clash with your financial situation. I would contact the police, explain the situation and ask if they can go over the video for you. If they refuse to do this, explain that you are a minor and will not be able to pay for some time. It is quite...

Re: I Hate Lasers "I was barely passed the edge of the 15 sign going 30." If I understand that correctly, you were still going 100% over the limit when entering the school zone. I don't know how you would ever be able to prove that he measured your speed just before and not in the actual zone...
