    Cheap safety glasses

    Is it just me or is there some sort of resistance to people adding their own IR filter to their greens? Its very easy to slap a IR filter on them. Yet I don't hear enough people mention that they do it. They wear laser goggles but don't bother with IR filters? I mean I know the IR beam usually...

    Cheap safety glasses

    Unless you have a LPM or get a member to LPM them first I wouldn't recommend these now. They need to be established as consistent with others getting the same result. Really no un-certified goggles should truly be trusted unless your pair has been tested. This would also apply to eagle pair...

    Cheap safety glasses

    1,238mW of 445nm & you got nothing on the LPM, Nice. Thank you for sharing this. :beer: Hopefully others will try these as will (LPMing them to be sure). Just want to mention again that the reading for your 532nm lasers may very likely be IR. It could be blocking (nearly) all 532nm. :san: Link...

    combine beams? Your ideas?

    Yes the power is combined but there are losses from the optics, more so if they aren't AR coated. Knife edging or a PBS works for the same wavelength. PBS can do two beams only (oppositely polarised), knife edging is unlimited but the beams get thicker with each you add. Combining colors is way...

    HELP - noob trying to repair laser pen

    If you need AAAAs, 9volt alkalines have 6 batteries inside that should fit. They are 3.5mm shorter. Same voltage & lot cheaper then AAAAs.

    1W 808nm for night vision

    Great video Fiddy! Thanks for posting it. I must have forgot to comment when I first saw this thread. :p What do you use to drive your IR laser diodes? I know people use flashlight CC linear drivers for 445nm but it feels risky to me since I don't know how resilient my IR diodes are...

    B&W Tek BWB-10-OEM - 473nm 10mW

    You know what else? I can't be sure thats the OC! Others have identified it as such but on cheap greens at least the OC isn't separate & is just done with coatings on the crystals.

    B&W Tek BWB-10-OEM - 473nm 10mW

    What aluminum is missing? Care to take a pic perhaps? :D

    B&W Tek BWB-10-OEM - 473nm 10mW

    Opps, There are no output optics on the BWB-10-OEM at all. Forgot to remove them from the image. Just a IR filter & optical feedback. Here are examples of Crystals & OCs with different coatings.

    B&W Tek BWB-10-OEM - 473nm 10mW

    Took the opportunity to hack up an image. :san: That 1064 should be 946... Coatings: AR=anti-reflective, HT=high transmission, HR=high reflective. OC=output coupler, TEC=thermoelectric cooler/peltier. Please ignore the green color of the resulting beam. :p ~edit~ There are no output optics on...

    B&W Tek BWB-10-OEM - 473nm 10mW

    The coatings on the crystals will only allow 473. The IR diode is 808 which is converted to 946 by Nd:YAG. The DPSS Primer...

    Cheap safety glasses

    Personally I wouldn't place these SCT-orange glasses much below eagle pair (as long as I've tested them well myself). I mean to me the bottom line is eagle pair aren't certified like OEM. They are chinese made & while they may be meant for laser use by whoever manufactures them I'm sure they are...

    Cheap safety glasses

    Disappointing that your original long post was lost. If your 532nm isn't IR filtered (most inexpensive ones aren't) you will likely read some IR on the LPM. If your interested, heres a good small IR filter & some other larger ones. You wouldn't have a 445nm laser by chance? :D

    If you find that short of a grand, please do let us know.

    SCT-orange is the only one that would cover the range he mentioned.
