Excuise my laziness for not searching the forum in depth for my question. Who on this forum is good and trustworthy to buy 1w 445nm lasers from? I am not experienced enough to build my own. I saw a nice shiny silver one on youtube that was made by a forum member and I would like to buy one or...

I have one, it is great. The focus ring is not as tight as I would like, but the output is quite good. I don't have a laser meter but I can tell it's quite a bit better than the 200mW red new style laser. The new 300mW red burns faster and I did a test. The 300mW laser will burn through a CD...

Ok, I got my red 300mW laser in from O-Like today...I'll post some images and videos soon. So far I really like it. Todd

It's most likely a square beam, the divergence is probably not all that bad. High power red lasers usually have a square spot instead of a round one. The red laser systems that Jack sells at Optotronics have square beams, I think that is so because of four red diode lasers merged into one beam...

Cool! I have one of those! I took photos for Jack of it for his website. The RPL-425 is a sweet laser, I love mine. Todd

Congrats! As for the pot mod, well don't do it. it is probably at max now and pushint it further will most likely blow the diode. It is already at or near 250mW. Most likely 230~240mW. This will burn plenty without adjusting it. If you don't know much about the milli amp current going to the...

Well i just ordered one as well. I have the new style (dilda asd you call it) 200mW red already and it will be good to see if the extra 50mW +/- will make a difference. I'll let you know what I think when it comes in, approx 14 days. -Todd

FOXNews.com - Deadly 'Star Wars Lightsabers' Are Cheap Online This does not seem right to have a laser rated at <1w and priced at $197.97 on wicked lasers' website. It is their Spyder III Pro arctic series, seen here: Portable Blue Laser from Wicked Lasers - Spyder III Pro Arctic Series If...

Well the red laser is a straight forward diode with the exit window in the shape of a rectangle, this gives the bar shaped spot you are seeing. Other red lasers like O-Like's 200mW new and old style red laser produces a round beam/spot because of the optics used. As for the green, well I can't...

Here is what I use: Nikon D3 and D700. ...Nikon 14-24 F/2.8, the Sigma 50mm f/1.4, the Nikon 85mm f/1.4, & the Nikon 80-200 f/2.8. Also I have 4 SB-900 flashes, 2 SB-800's, 2 SB-600's, 1 SU 800, and lots of studio gear including soft boxes and octodome. Todd. th-photo's Photos- powered by SmugMug

Laser photography is what I like to do. Here are some shots taken in my studio with my Nikon D3.

To be honest dude. my blu-ray is doing the same thing. -Todd

Hey dude, thanks for the comment. That was actually just a quick image, I did not put much effort into it. All I did was smoke up the room a bit using a storm proof match that burns strong for about 10 seconds and releases a lot of smoke. Then I set up my SB 900 flash in a small softbox set at...

Thanks for the comments. I really enjoy photography. -Todd

Just got it in today! Ok so this is my first time owning a blu laser of any kind, it is really cool! It is more like a UV laser (black lite) and is really hard to focus on. Since the human eye does not focus UV light very well, it appears to have a halo around the spot. I think this is caused...

Ok so this is my first time owning a blu laser of any kind, it is really cool! It is more like a UV laser (black lite) and is really hard to focus on. Since the human eye does not focus UV light very well, it appears to have a halo around the spot. I think this is caused by the lens of your eye...

Ok no problem. You truly get what you pay for these days, especially with lasers. I hope you find what you are looking for. -T

Re: make sure that you look at beam divergence! That Rafoss laser that you have linked has a divergence of 1.7mrad, that is horrible. That will look like a flashlight at 100yds. The Optotronics lasers have a 0.8~1.0mrad (RPL series), and a 1.2mrad for the pen style. That is was better than the...

LOL, yeah that is a bad one, I guess i'll fix it. Thanks for the heads up. -Todd

Ok, sure you bet. I guess I'll be the first to do so. I'll have it in about 10 DAYS give or take. Todd
