Chris --- Watch out on high power flash tubes.. Some are high pressure made for CW/water cooled. I got one from Merdith years ago and ended up picking glass shards out of my face--- I'm still ugly! They gave me a refund. The brewster angles work well when aligned. I used a small HeNe and...

Texas Inst. has a line of high current power supplies. Part numbers begin with PTH08***** Might be worth a look. I'm running one at 40 Amps / 2.8V (as I recall) with an input of 14 volts using 20 amp Li Ion cells. Runs cool. HM

TW -- Maybe a PM? HM

Doesn't anyone have a small passive Q switch like used on the SSY-1? That little "pill" works soooo well. HM

I have heard that there are small YAG lasers here. Talk of ~30mm rods. I've never seen a photo. Likely low power! HM

MAN -- I wish I has SS lasers like that. Really unique stuff to have. My Yag lasers are also relatively weak too .... HM

Branson -- I see you have a number of YAG lasers. DO you actually have them AND powered up? MY YAGs can easily output over 20 KW but with an average of about 25 mW.. A bullet outputs its energy is a split second too. Wear eye protection and limit direct skin exposure. HM

Alaskan -- The SSY-1 likely won't fit into a STrek Phaser gun but just barely fit into the bigger "disrupter?"gun. There is still some room for a few more caps! HM

All my flashlights are tail clickey style. It seems the dorcy was also. I also have some bare switches. Wish I could have helped you. HM PS: My "old" flashlights are from the "red diode" era -- MXD, MXDL etc. All have screw in tail caps. I seem to forget how the Dorcy worked. I see what...

I have a few various old flashlights here. I forget how big the clickey was on those. Maybe I have something which will fit. Can you measure or picture? HM

Good luck, Doctor.... Who said that? HM

ru12---- The Phaser is a collectable "toy" which I kinda messed up with a 1.25W blue laser. It still makes that sound as installed. The whole front end is new because I melted the old nozzle. The other one was represented as a Klingon unit and was a POS as I got it. It now has an SSY-1...

Paul -- True -- I haven't decided weather I dislike the climate or COLD here this winter! HM

It's hard to get a picture of a 20nS beam with my camera! I'm working to get the expander to "work" at about 4 to 5 feet. By the way, Just for fun -------------- Good night -- HM

I have the "gun" assembled and now have an expander built for it. As usual for me, I used PVC pipe fittings for the assembly. I got the lenses from Surplus Shed. They are a -17mm PCV and a 53mm PCX which should give me about 3.11 X mag. They are listed as coated but with what ? :whistle: The...

Blarg --- I've read all the reasons you are leaving. I too have been there and I just go away for a while without blasting the forum. HEY -- Give it a few months or a year and come back. You might feel better. HM

I always remember that TZ episode -- TO SERVE MAN --- It's a cook book !!!!!!!!!! HM

pmurxxxx --- You specify power AND wavelengths. Most cheap sellers don't know what nM means and have no way to verify the lie -- oops, I mean offering. Good Luck HM

The "gun" is assembled and outputting photons so I'm working on an expander -- About 3x for short and simple. The bunch of capacitors in there provides 25J at about 1,000 volts but it is relatively high ESR from the Rubycon caps. The above picture is correct except the caps are installed and...

I'm with Alaskan. I've been there, I remain amazed but I don't talk about it much. Why would an advanced civilization contact us? Who is the leader of the world? What's with all the wars? They are as we should be -- Stand back and wait for a leader to arise on the planet and deal with that one...
