Candy for Asherz... My cam is broke so I used an old camcorder (750i), excuse the dirty pics. there is some fog but the cam is not able to focus on the beam properly.

Since I'm on school holidays I'm taking my precious spare time to give my trades feedback. It is not complete as I have dealt with Igor ; maybe next holidays ? Who knows ? After all I said I would make a 6x review for Igor but I still haven't done it (#'_'#) because of school. If you see any...

Good luck man, it must be quite a burden to recover from extensive damages.... good thing your lasers are ok :D

Welcome to the forum :D. Check for mauswiesel posts, he built a working DPSS laser with a 1W c-mount and achieved 1-10mW. Takes a lot of time and courage though good luck ;).

Wrong. I'm 100% french, french citizen lol, but yes, 90% of french hate english :). But when living in Paris, starpointing is impossible due to the incredible amount of pollution. That makes me wonder...

My god that must suck...your friend must feel so ashamed... Ask some members if they can repair lasers although I don't no anyone who would be able to repair DPSS (green, blue and yellow) lasers. Some people would buy broken lasers but not me...

he cried until (who doesn't when breaking a 170 $ diode ?)

Satan, after having argh you beat me A slow with

BR = Blu-Ray. You could use a SF-AW210 at low currents so it can last longer, but I recommend using a relativaly low powered laser diode for safety reasons. (like 15mW-20mW before diffraction gratings) On low powers you can use a heatsink like this, no problem, although the bigger the better.

cereal. I then

Using two lens is useless. Having two lens will reduce the amount of light because a lens doesn't let through 100% of the light. You could use a BR and paint the wall with fluorescent dye if you want a blue star-field projected to the cieling. With proper heatsinking if you need 12 hours of...

No I'm sorry, but I'm aware of your incomparable QC tests. I do have a model like yours which measures the same beam diameter (about 3mm) at aperture I bought from an other laser company which probably made a biaised response. However the sheer power doesn't change on the 150mW model, and can...

Aided = with a magnifying lens Better built = feels good in the hand, looks good, and is made of brass. Opto has more overall power. It has a better overall power but the beam size is bigger, therefore its burning is affected. You can't burn a lot with a 200mW red with a 2mm beam diameter. But...

Optotronics sounds good, although I prefer CNIs (dragons) because they have a thin beam at aperture which enables unaided burning ; although if you don't mind, opto's laser will burn better with a lens. Both can burn skin. Both are good but I prefer CNIs because of the build quality. But if...

I'm from France, but I have to agree, I had a friend who got a laser and I gave him two warnings not to do anything stupid, because that's the first thing that comes to mind to juniors, and he did, HE FIRED THE LASER AT A BUS DRIVER !!! I can't imagine what could have happened ! But I think it...

Banning a guy because he is being childish isn't a good idea. We should make him act like an adult or it's our hobby that's being put into jeopardy. If someone asks : "is it a good idea to shine a laser on a helicopter" you dont ban him, you tell him it is forbidden.

Hey, did they send the module back yet ?
