    Lots of ebay sales of lasers... should I worry?

    Re: Lots of ebay sales of lasers... should I worry I 2nd the motion.  ;) Read Dave's post again. I 3rd the motion.   It's good to know the risks, but the choice, is yours.  Will it happen?  Who really knows?  I have no idea.  And what fish do the FDA have to fry anyway?  Who knows...

    Two 200mw red  aixiz in one housing

    Re: Two 200mw red  aixiz in one housing It won't work that way AT ALL.  The way the diodes are designed and the way the optics are design will make two low-powered funky uncollimated blobs of light.  Do some more research, there was someone who posted in a few different threads the right way to...

    I'll be there.... Bring your back-up. ;D [smiley=evil.gif]

    what did I do wrong?

    Check out everyone's encouragement. But, by the sounds of it you may have already crossed over to the dark side, the side with NO LASERS. That's cool, but perhaps you should just GTFO! ;D I don't mean to sound cruel, but if it helps you move on, then accept my words above. But in my heart I...

    place for flamewars?

    It's so funny the things people say when talking to someone thousands of miles away compared to when in person because you could reach over and deck the person... I suppose respect is more emanate... *sighs... awe.. Thank god the internetz wasn't around as it is today when I was a kid, I just...

    What happened to Coherent ? (Razako)

    Or maybe he's the one doing all the hacking. :P

    New stuff...

    You ass hole, now you've gone and pushed me into NEEDING a high powered IR laser. Don't forget the safety goggles! But seriously, I've been thinking about building a nice IR laser for a while, and I know it can't be that hard! I believe the 1.5W IR C mounts are around $50 IRRC but I could be...

    rep points  must read.

    Now is this really that difficult? The whole thing is a joke, and the reps, everybody's entitled to rep anybody any way they please for what every they please, and it's not the end of the world if someone neg reps you. Gosh. ;D Niko's right, we all come here for fun, not stress. Leave stress...

    i hate this "holiday"!!!!!

    I to love debate.  :D MKL day doesn't necessarily bother me either, but what does irritate me a bit is how he is worshiped in the black community.  I mean, there have been several people who have shown the same honor, and died fighting for their beliefs and cause just the same as MLK has, but...

    what did I do wrong?

    No, get a new diode. Even if you successfully reconnected the pins, there's a chance the diode could be blown because of the capacitor in the driver. Just give it some time, you know, it's like a video game. If you can't beat the level and it pisses you off so bad you turn off the system...

    i hate this "holiday"!!!!!

    One of my neighbors was instructed by the police to remove his skull and cross bone flag from his house because it degraded the neighborhood.   I watched it from my front yard.   I agree with accepting the world for what it is, that's key in finding balance.  And like you said, that doesn't...

    Don't give up man. You owe it to the Laser Gods. You will be rewarded if you continue... [smiley=engel017.gif]

    what did I do wrong?

    Hey, calm down. I know the feeling of disappointment is very discouraging and frustrating and it basically sucks to throw away money, I've destroyed more then you know, to the point where I became basically numb to it. Don't let it get the best of you, life will have much more effective trials...

    What is the specs for IR diode out of the PHR-803T

    Re: What is the specs for IR diode out of the PHR- Being at 5-10mW, it's not dangerous at all, but I wouldn't recomend staring into the beam.  And it's not like 100mW of ir would be that dangerous either as long as you're responsible and don't stare into the invisible beam or stare at the...

    Physics Project

    I'm not sure using lasers as your physics project is a good idea.  yeah, they're cool and they use physics, but they are dangerous and you don't want to risk everyone with eye damage, meaning that any laser over 5mW (as a general rule of thumb) should not be used without the proper laser's...

    Laser security system?

    No.  Those are most likely 5-10mW used for line generating so you can easily see where the cut will end up.

    Laser security system?

    Awe Frothy, you had to spoil all the fun. ;D yeah, lasers are stupid in that case, nothing like a good o' cheap motion detector and camera surveillance. But as far as the possibility of that existing, isn't too far off. Will it ever be used, most likely not.

    Laser security system?

    ;D Perhaps with future blu-rays, but will we see that tech? I sure hope so! [smiley=evil.gif] My 6x can burn the heck out you in a couple seconds at 40' away. That was a funny clip by the way, I wish we had his view though. ;D
