    CNI developments?

    I've heard reports that CNI will stop shipping portable lasers greater than 5 mW as of 2015. However, I couldn't find any secondary sources on this; the CNI website doesn't mention anything about this change, and the only other source comes from an LPF member who says he has been in contact with...

    CNI no longer exporting >5mW?

    The OP in another thread is saying that CNI will still export high-powered lasers to the U.S. as long as they're disassembled. Can anyone confirm this?

    CNI 800mw 532nm portable w/ adjustable focus quote

    So from what I gather, CNI will still ship high-powered lasers to the U.S. as long as they're disassembled. Am I reading this correctly?

    Laser Wiki

    There used to be a laser-related wiki at lasers.wikia.com several years ago, but it's now returning a 404 error, and nobody seems to know what happened to it.

    FLIR just got affordable

    I've always wanted a thermal camera, but they are still so damn expensive. Even though the prices have dropped significantly over the past few years, I still can't come up with a practical reason to justify buying one. For the record, the latest version of the FLIR E4 firmware isn't so easily...

    Wikipedia Page on Wicked Lasers Company

    Yeah, I don't think Wicked Lasers is notable enough for its own Wikipedia article. I made an article on it several years ago, and it was deleted.

    price drop on Hercules and Aries series from Laserglow

    Laserglow's products have always been pretty expensive. Justin says the company targets professional laser users rather than hobbyists, but I wouldn't be surprised if some professional "laserists" have moved to hobbyist-grade lasers due to the prices, especially if they don't need the advanced...

    price drop on Hercules and Aries series from Laserglow

    I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed this, but Laserglow recently dropped the price on its Hercules and Aries series of green lasers. This information probably isn't useful as Laserglow doesn't ship portable lasers to the U.S. anymore, and that S-KY has better prices, but I thought I'd throw...

    Laserbtb PL532-200 review [pic heavy]

    I see. It looks kind of wrinkled, though. From what I've seen in other pictures, the shutters should have a smooth surface.

    can a laser operator be their own LSO?

    I know public laser displays are required to be overseen by a laser safety officer. But I'm wondering: can a licensed laser operator be their own LSO if they have the appropriate training? Or does the LSO have to be a separate person?

    Laserbtb PL532-200 review [pic heavy]

    It looks like there is some material stuck in the aperture. Is it some sort of seal?

    CNI no longer exporting >5mW?

    If that's the case, then does it mean group buys will also become a thing of the past?
