You'll need to adjust the actual power going to the diode to properly decrease it, a simple optic that absorbs most of the lasers power would probably have heat issues, im not really an optics expert myself and the only ways i've seen it done is via different power modes. Maybe there is a semi...

Welcome to the forums!

Doing a cleanup of my laser/electronics area of destruction and i snapped a pic of a heavy pile of old DVD drives who's diodes have since now been sacrificed :can: Left out a few drives before i took the picture but by the end the box was a little more than 3/4 full Oh and if only they still...

Re: LaserLands 445/450nm 5mw Ebay Order Either way if it isnt 445/450 you've got a free laser pointer, description clearly states the wavelength as 445. Not nearly as unclear as some things you see on alibaba and aliexpress for example: Laser Diode 445nm Green Nichaia 405nm 532 660 Mitsubishi...

Re: ebay r-lsales dishonest, sent bad Li-ion batteries back due to being completely d In all of my experiences with ebay/paypal my Dialog with customer support had always been "Hi how can we help you" me: "I am a selle-" ebay:"Sorry but you;ve lost your money and theres nothing we are going to...

Welcome Back! Great too see another Aussie around !

Thanks for sending me the Full size version of the image i requested, looks absolutely amazing as a background image!

They may cost a fair bit more but DHL has been wonderful (Apart from a delivery guy walking into my house to toss a package down the hallway but hey...) Not too relevant but i reliably get packages delivered from China to Australia in 3 days, no more no less.

Hey gabe, what comes after the number 997?

Re: LaserComponents Australia (532nm Module Giveaway!) !Bump!

Hate too toot my own trumpet but is it a 1mW laser you are looking for or above 1mW? If so what i believe you would want is a APC (Automatic Power Control) laser basically a laser which senses the light output and uses that to somewhat regulate the output rather than spinning a trim pot and...

I bulk bought a bunch of the bmk laser pointers and they are all over 1mW, some of them even came labeled as 5mW and a few even had a 1mW sticker covering a 5mW sticker

Sure will, i remember when i started and the dollar was at 0.76'ish and i was like damn this sucks, and then it dropped to 0.69 and i was back wishing, 76 is fine, 76 is fine!

Sadly not yet, im still too decide which ones to source etc.. and anything that i do get will have to have an added cost because it will need to be shipped by satchel/parcel.

As Pi R said, 200-300mW of 520nm will be more than satisfying visually, hell my 100mW 532nm is still amazing to look at. Anyway enjoy the 200mW's of 520nm wish i had one on its way too :)

So if you looked back a few years when they first initiated the ban on lasers over 1mW there are plenty of posts all over the internet of people having lasers confiscated and the likes. However noticeably eBay Australia has exploded with overspec laser pointers and theres been a lack of threads...

Yes, as it its cheaper to make something that spits out power between 10-80mW then it is to make something that is 1mW, that being said it also makes that laser Illegal in Australia.

Welcome, shame WL's poor service put you off the hobby for so long.

Welcome!
