*Too many opinions to address.* Rhd, that's actually my logo that you can see in the picture. It says "Trinary Laser Gloves". I'm sorry you don't find it particularly pretty. It's very soft and it makes me smile when I stroke it at night. kiyou, these are actually pretty awesome. I realize...

I'm going to assume that is some sort of analog to digital converter. Have you tried diagnosing your chip? Perhaps replacing it? Have you checked the digital line after the chip?

lol, rhd I have never seen you not be blunt. The price of my laser modules is just not really the kind of argument I want to debate page after page. I spent weeks, day in and day out, comparing prices and emailing every supplier I could find. The supplier I use meets my qualifications at the...

Umm... I know you have gone in detail about eliminating noise, but I have to ask: Have you considered cell phones? The pattern you are describing sounds very much like the pattern of interference caused by cell phones. I have another idea along another track. The photo-multiplyer you are using...

That's obviously a check to see if you have the proper table or bench at your house to do the surgery. ;)

Thank you for your input Kiwat. A price point that cheap would require mass production and throw-away style parts. The fact is I am currently getting an MBA, and I know something about pricing. "Cheap" is a market segment, someone else is currently trying to sell a cheap version and from what...

They should defiantly have a purchase plan that includes renting... how many times in your life do you need laser surgery after all? I couldn't see using this more than 3 or 4 times in a 10 year period. However.. it it had a switch on it and I could turn it into a portable laser etching...

The professional lasik I got was disturbing enough... You lose all ability to focus for like 10 seconds as (you learn later) they cut a slice of your eye. Then there's a noise and you smell burning. On the plus side it's over in 12 minutes. I was hoping this DIY device would allow you to at...

I am not familiar with your ST-Drives. The inverter will most likely create electrical noise along the entire line unless you use a separate power source. Do me a favor and keep track of how much you spend on parts. :)

I am pleased that so many people have decided that they want to build a set of their own. Once I get some free time I plan to create a website where people can post their laser glove designs and how well they turned out, as well as videos of them in use. EDIT: Site here...

That sounds like a good plan Kwiet. Very much like my first set. I think it would give you a nice sense of accomplishment to DIY a set like that. Just a word of advice though: Avoid lithium ion batteries for something like this, they can explode. It sounds like with your budget you would just...

rofl!

That 470nm thread you just linked to turned out to just be the Chinese being sloppy.

If using your laser is a pain in the ass, then you're doing it wrong.

:crackup: Good one hak. From here on they must needs get cheesier. When I hook my projector up to my TV, why can't it change TV channels? 'cause it's a lasier projector.

Hmm.. well I remember them from when I was getting my software degree. The electronic guys would order them, but they had a special catalog. The batteries were real, but they were made out of some material that was extremely dangerous and was forbidden to be shipped via regular mail. Honestly...

I think there are probably cheaper, simpler solutions. If you pay enough you can find non-rechargeable batteries with an absolutely massive energy density. You can get a 9v battery that will power a smoke detector for 15-20 years, for example. If you put a 10 year battery in there, would that...

Thanks ben, I never expected that from you. I've got to go ahead and get this one out of the way: What does daguin do to his wife after a hard day moderating these forums? He laser.

"Don't look directly into the beam" is synonymous with "don't point the laser at your eye".
