That's what I figured. Thanks for the response, everyone. I guess you could say that Insanity Lasers are pretty insane. :P

There's a company called Insanity Lasers that seems to have recently popped up. I frequently see their ads on Facebook but couldn't find any further information. Their pictures indicate that the lasers use the same host as the "SDLaser 303" ones. But other than that, I'm a little suspicious for...

I don't own a laser from either S-KY or Sci-Fi lasers, but I've heard nothing but positive things about both companies. I'd say each has their advantages; S-KY offers a greater variety of products, but the person who run Sci-Fi lasers is a member of this forum and will likely give you a faster...

The site only says that it is "currently unavailable." Do you have any other information to suggest that it has closed for good?

Some single-mode 405 nm diodes can actually already reach 1 W, although I don't expect them to have extremely long lifespans.

I don't see an option to make a new thread either. They may have set it so that only certain users may start threads.

They should be burning stuff with it instead of doing boring fusion experiments. :P

Re: Sci-fi lasers? Sci-Fi lasers offers two different hosts, the Arcane 2.0 and the SF501B. The latter looks better in my opinion.

According to the post, the OP was seven years old at the time. 7-year-olds don't have the same cognitive ability as adults. Also, some helicopters can fly up to 25,000 feet or more.

...after accidentally shining a laser at a helicopter. Interesting thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/tifu/comments/3c2b9f/tifu_by_spending_the_night_shinning_a_laser

You could ask a trusted forum member from another country to order and forward it for you.

Here's the thread: My Homemade 40W LASER SHOTGUN!!! : videos

It would probably be a good idea to let S-KY know in case they want to take legal action.

S-KY should sue that idiot for tarnishing their business reputation.

As an alternative to goggles, you could consider using some sort of safety screen. One of the chemistry professors put on a demonstration involving a high-powered blue laser during my freshman year of college, and he did not pass out goggles to everyone in the lecture hall.

What a tool. :banghead: Unfortunately, these incidents are nothing new.

There was a transportation fair at work today, and they were using a laser to engrave metal luggage tags at one of the booths. Apologies for the image quality as it's hard to take good pictures with a mobile device. Click for larger versions. This appears to be an RMI laser engraver. The...

Shark With Frickin' Laser Pointer | ThinkGeek

I've heard conflicting information regarding this. Some say it'd be fairly easy for an experienced hobbyist to convert a lab laser to a portable one, but I've also heard others say it's very hard due to the difficulty of realigning the optical components. I guess it all depends on the type of...
