    Fluorescent glow dye for green and violet lasers

    Re: Fluorescent glow dye for green and violet lase Hey Glowdye, those seem really good dyes. Do you have any more colours available + chemical names please. Do you have similar ranges and prices to this website: http://www.scuddlebutt3.co.uk/Dyes.htm I use that company for bits of lab kit...

    100W Green Laser - $84 @ DX! Lol :P

    @ Laserrod - I'd be really interested if these labbies will be 'TTL' able, as I'd want to stick them in a scanner that I *might* make in the future! Let me know how that pans out! Dan :-)

    I got to see a 8,000W laser in action - Whooo! :D

    Re: I got to see a 8,000W laser in action - Whooo! Well... There you go! That shows how much I know!

    Scanning Basics + Terminology etc.

    Andy... Go for it! If you do enough parties - you may get your money back, or enough to build another!   ;D But seriously, thanks for all your help - and to see what is achiveable is inspiring. One last question, you stated the green/red mix should be 3:1, so why are you using 2:1? Should it...

    I got to see a 8,000W laser in action - Whooo! :D

    Well... I went to Liverpool University Open day last Thursday, and they gave us a tour around the Engineering department, and we happened to pass through the laser dept. :D :D :D The guys there put on the usual balloon in a balloon tricks etc, but used a 10W laser to pop it!?!?! Then they...

    Scanning Basics + Terminology etc.

    I'm really impressed with your DT-40 videos, the dolphin and the '3D' stuff is phenominal!!! I guess this is one of those projects I'll keep at the back of my mind, should I have some spare cash. I wouldn't want to buy one, as I would have no use for it. I'd build one, just for building ones...

    Scanning Basics + Terminology etc.

    Wow! That much! Well, if there are good bits of kit, I guess they are worth it! I REALLY want an animated scanner, I'm not arsed about beams, just the animated pics! so I'll keep at this 'project' for about a year, as I don't have that kind of cash to throw into it all at once. Should I steer...

    Scanning Basics + Terminology etc.

    Ahh!!! You've updated it! Fantastic! I read it a few weeks back, and it was good then, now it's even better + much more clear. Just out of interest, how much were you DT-40's?

    Scanning Basics + Terminology etc.

    Hi! I have a few questions about scanning and various other laser show related questions! 1.) What IS TTL? From what I've picked up, it can be used to turn the laser off on and off really quickly. Is this part of a feature of the laser or the driver? i.e. if I bought a cheapo DX labby laser...

    100mW Red For £35?!

    Eh....?? Don't you mean the other way around? If I were to use the 35mW new DX labby, would 100mW of Red do? Also, if I were to use the 100mW green DX labby, how much red should I typically use? and where can I get red labby's that powerful? and cheap! Also, if I were to throw some blue in...

    GB laser barrels

    Re: GB feeler laser barrels @Kenom & Blue: I'm not too good with electronics, and I don't mean to poke my nose in with the circuit, but could you make the circuit to have BOTH resistors soldered in by default, and add a small DIP/DIL switch to select between the two 'modes'? i.e. the switch...

    100W Green Laser - $84 @ DX! Lol :P

    Yeah - I was joking! But I'm still REALLY interested in it! I think I'll wait for a few to feed through to place before I order. Mainly for 2 reasons, 1.) I can't afford it, and 2.) on the PCB, there is a socket for "RED" which *may* mean that you can connect 2 lasers together? Saying that...

    100W Green Laser - $84 @ DX! Lol :P

    Lol! http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10096 Not a bad price for a 100W green laser, genuine New Wish too! Saying that though, I'd pay £42 for a 100mW one (which I'm sure they mean!) I'm probably going to get one of these lab styles ones + a red one to make YELLOW!!! :-) Dan :-)

    how powerful would it have to be to..

    Sorry, I didn't phrase that well.... What I mean to say was mW for mW red looks tons less bright (the beam anyway) than green. So if you had a 30mW Green and a 30mW red: The green beam would be visible, even in daylight; whereas with the red beam, it would be invisible in daylight, hard to see...

    how powerful would it have to be to..

    I don't mean to be rude, but apart from assembling a circuit, having an electrical engineer won't help with the actual laser. Unless you REALLY know what you are doing, building a green from scratch it out. It requires a very carful alignment of special crystals and whatnot to covert the light...

    100mw red $37.54 and 35mw green $59.99 dx modules

    Re: 100mw red $37.54 and 35mw green $59.99 dx modu Aye.... I've just seen these too! Nice price! Obviously 2 of the wires are power, but what are the other 2 for? Could it be TTL? I don't know what that is, but most big modules seem to have that now! AFAIK, its some control thing.... :-/ (I'd...

    DX New Item: 70mW Red Laser Circuit Board $17!

    Hi all, I'm sure some have you have already seen this, but there is a new laser product from DX. It's a circuit board and a 70mW Red laser module, just add power! I don't think it's any use for a torch mod, but may be useful for a lab laser to someone?!? (I noticed yellow.sir.name posted in...

    DX 30mW Order - Delays - Now Fixed!!! :-D

    Yeah, the delivery for other items I've got from DX doesn't worry me, I just order a wait. But with my 1st green laser, things were different! I never did get the 'gift' she promised. I'm not going to hold it against them, I paid for a laser, and I got a laser, a good deal if you ask me! ;)

    Christmas Wish List !

    Forget the laser, imagine the eBay insertion fee for that!!! You could buy a small town with that kind of money!  ;D
