    DX 200mw ordered after FDA Warning?

    Hey Dave, Tnx. for the info. Thinking a few steps ahead, I would think they wouldn't want to push it too much, as all a manufacturer would need to do (to make an otherwise high power laser the FDA does NOT really want Joe Public owning), is make a few safety modifications, and its legal to...

    DX 200mw ordered after FDA Warning?

    I did not know that. Thought it was just illegal to use them in public w/ out a variance, and perfectly legal to own/use indoors. Of course, would be illegal to shine into the sky even from your own private property (without variance). Oh, and its a scare tactic – I guarantee that 110%. Some...

    200mW Red Pen Style from DX - Detailed Review

    I ordered a dilda. When it arrives, I hope it gives me as much *pleasure* as it has (apparently) given all of yous. Already have the rechargable CR2's LiIon and charger, so once it arrives, I'll be able to go str8 to town (no screwing around).

    Camping with my PRL-225

    FYI: I found long ago, the fish love to go for the red lasers, (636, 650, even 780 early ones). I thinks its their sensors are tuned more towards head/infrred, and they see the red as warm pray. Also, red is the commonest color in ocean fish for some reason.

    Returning to Deal Extreme>Advice

    I'm not surprised, that, (to many), in China, "the truth" is only what you can prove, and "a lie" isn’t being dishonest, if you can't prove it's a lie. Sort of like that Seinfeld episode with Elaine and that jacket she stole, where she was like..."But they don't know I stole it, so its not...

    Returning to Deal Extreme>Advice

    I'm ordering a few replacements greenies (and new ones) from DX, and (unless I'm really lucky), expect I will have to return at least one item or so. How are they on that, in your experience? From past experience, once I initiate an RMA, they never answered, so I was left hanging, as to what to...

    DX 532nm 200mw superstar dead

    I’m really sad [ch61516] She really was my superstar. Consistent 180mw of 532nm, with great visual stability, and consistently over 165mw (even at 5 min). Then last night she seems dimmer. I change batteries, and this doesn’t help. Then this AM, even dimmer, and now, completely dead. Now, I’m...

    Xerex broken

    still no luck...they sent me a non functioning one :(

    Xerex broken

    Still just the pale (1/20th mW) 532. Doesn't make much sense, as it has operated easily within the temperature ranges it is now failing. Does anyone have any more practicle clues? Tried triggering it rapidly over a minute or so, and that did nothing. Don't think the pump could be gone, as I see...

    Why are Yellow lasers so extremely under powered??

    Re: Why are Yellow lasers so extremely under power DX thought I was possibly going to buy tons of 200mw gerrnies, so they sent me a very nice one. It stabilises aorund 165 after its been on quite some time. 20-30mW 808. very stable, super bright. I'd bet this one happens to be a 30%'er, based...

    Xerex broken

    Tnx 4oh the reply. As to the more *likely* scenario, I didn't know it was possible for a diode (pump) to go from fried state, to working again?!? So alignment is then changing slightly, between the (apparent) working states of the unit, and the non working states? Its just weird.

    Xerex broken

    Sawt al Hurriyah, I'm beginning to wonder weather small fluctuations in  humidity could influence things here.  The only reason I wonder, is I (partially) feel, I have somewhat accounted for the other, more obvious variables.  Something causing an enhanced performance of the 808 diode is where...

    Xerex broken

    Styro, Deffinately 'preeciate the suggestion. Had already taken the liberty of using one dead (or almost), otherwise 1.2v NiMH AAA slug, and a 4.2V LiIon AAA battery (as the standard 1.2's got eaten so quickly). Wish it was that simple.

    Xerex broken

    So I'm stuck with a non-working Xerex 593.5nm.  Symptoms are, instead of the golden, sodium like dot, just a small amount (perhaps 1/18th of a mw) of what actually appears to be 532.  It has worked, and I did read about temperature being a factor, but accounting for temperature and potential...

    Y not have a pointer composed of 5mW 532&100mW650

    405nm in solid state, RGB laser show engine?

    So, some think it wouldn't be worth it, but others (including myself), think it could add nice "pop", or sheen, and certainly couldn't hurt. *Especially* when the projection reflects off fluorescent surfaces. I'm wondering weather (even without fluorescence), the otherwise not very noticeable...

    Y not have a pointer composed of 5mW 532&100mW650

    Re: Y not have a pointer composed of 5mW 532&100mW I think the consensus is that Bionic-Badger took it in stride (was just asking, no biggie). But pseudolobster is truly a nut job whacko...the kind of person you worry about stalking you because you looked at them the wrong way. You never know...
