If it has a couple wires, Try it.. Nothing to loose ! HM

Many years ago at LPM, 100 mW Reds were becoming available. All we had was a LED and viol meter. Not calibrated but gave some indication of power. You might try a small diode cooling module. Paint one side flat black. HM

Big Pockets...............

There are two crystal phases. 808 nM to 1064 nM doubled to 532 nM.

And don't ever touch the high impedance foils on the laser tube. They will arc before you contact them !!!

Point it at a small, say, 40W light bulb and watch the filament burn out! BTW, my wife wasn't impressed.... HM

I have only heard of them. Now I see one ! Thanks --- HM

What do we do with new technology of this power ????? WOMD :-( HM

I don't know how many SSY-1 heads there are out there anymore but parts are rare - -especially flash tubes. I am trying to find a source but I need to know if there is interest in some. I have no price yet so your reply is non committal !!!! HM (mike)

It has been a long time on this SSY-1 project. I had it working in that small space and then broke the flash tube moving the heavy anode wire. I am working with a company which may be able to provide me with a new tube(s) ? That SSY is a great little laser and there are no flash tubes...

I have a FAP800-40 but I keep it limited to 10 watts for testing. Getting a lens set for producing a tight dot is troubling but I'm getting better !! HM

ME109 --- I'm currently working on the same project with an FAP800. Nasty wide beam..... I'm have some luck getting it kind of under control but that damn 19 dots sometimes won't converge at even 10'. Keep trying ! HM

It glows yellow with a 405 nM but no Geiger counter clicks. HM

You need a Ur marble?

They make good room hearers in the winter ! HM

I hadn't run my LASOS for two years...... Last night, I let the cathode heat for about 8 minutes and she fired right up. Old hot cathode tubes need to heat up before you slip 'em the juice ! HM

My CO2 hand held is only 10 Watts ... It eats 18650 cells fast. HM

I know this thread is old but long ago, i helped a guy on here who said he got his breath to lase. Then, I was using a mix of 10% CO2, 5.6% N2 and 84.4% He. I think I found that in Scientific American back then. HM

Thanks for your help. I ordered one rather than try to build one !!! I may try removing the ball holder but I'll try the adapter first.

The G ball is still affixed. I didn't know about de-canning it What are the options? Mike
