    laser expected to blow up

    Hehehehe. I agree. Like you said, I'm sure the < means more like an actual of 450ma for the model we are speaking of and probably around an actual of 400ma for the unit advertised as "<450ma." Now these are just my estimations so if they don't seem right feel free to discredit them lol. But...

    laser expected to blow up

    Hey guys. Just ordered a high powered red to add to the collection. Decided on the 200mw waterproof red FWT from rayfoss as shown in my signature. Love the host and the 18650 battery, as these were some of the deciding factors. The website says input current is <550ma. Now, on the forums it...

    laser dazzlers

    The more I look at it and read about it I want one for my rifle lol. Honestly its crazy to think about the laser technology that's probably used by the military that we don't even know about yet. And maybe never will.

    laser dazzlers

    Interesting. That sure would look nice on my bushmaster :cool:Not sure I quite understand the whole idea though. I mean, a strobe at close range, i.e. a couple feet away, won't make me or anyone I know vomit. Nor seize. Seizure disorders and epilepsy are a completely different subject...

    laser dazzlers

    I see. Well I definitely don't want or need one but I was just wondering what would cause the vomiting and the inability to fight after being "dazzled."

    Thank you!! I was going for something professional looking yet rugged/militaristic looking. :yh:

    laser dazzlers

    Hey guys. So I have read about the military utilizing high powered lasers as dazzlers against the enemy in the overseas combat zones. It was stated that at a distance, lasers have been used to "dazzle" the enemy and avoid an all out engagement or firefight. Other things stated was that enemy...

    where can i get a good case for my lasers?

    Sorry for the delayed response. But as previously stated, Pelican cases are the best I've seen for laser storing applications. Plick and Pluck foam is amazing for customizing the spaces to place various sized hosts. The cases are watertight, shockproof, and pressure equalizing. I purchased...

    Just used my 1.6W 445nm for self-defense.

    Just a delayed comment about all the above mentioned "harming or blinding the suspect." 8 feet was the distance right pianoman?? It takes most people less than 1.5 seconds to charge you from a distance of exactly 21 feet with an edged weapon, making this a justification for deadly force. So...

    Spartan has arrived!!!

    Very good point. I never even thought about it like that. $90.00 for customs is ridiculous, not to mention having two lasers for the price of one. The modes of the arctic are another thing I don't understand with that unit. The pulse mode is so weird and in my opinion, kind of pointless. I...

    Spartan has arrived!!!

    Eudaimonium, thanks for the reply!!! I thought I was all alone for a while haha. You are right...I really need to get some pictures in there. I just had to quickly post something about the unit because I was so excited about it! Your reviews are awesome. And...seeing your arctic review just...

    Spartan has arrived!!!

    What's up guys. I finally received my Spartan 1W 447nm and I am so pleased with it I just want to tell you about it. Keep in my mind, this is not my attempt at a formal review...just a little a show and tell. I ordered the unit on 11/16/2010 and it was dispatched to my location on...

    strange beam characteristics

    I forgot to mention. The dim beam appears less bright than a 75 mw pointer on a side by side comparison under the same conditions.

    strange beam characteristics

    I just need some responses and thoughts on beam brightness. The situation involves two exact same pen style pointers, from the same company, both rated at 150 mw. The first pointer dims noticeably after multiple on/off activations and the beam brightness subsequently holds at that dim level...

    Daguin, Its ok. You are right, there was a lot of that in the post but I really didn't know how else to describe it. I am new here and not that experienced so if I don't go about asking the questions properly I apologize. But since you read my post, I have to ask...do you have insight on the...

    assistance needed

    Recently, I posted an honest inquiry about a serious question I have relating to pen pointers sold online. Danguin has deleted my thread without confirming the integrity of my post. Because I have respect for this forum and its users, I will not disclose the subject matter of my previous post...

    Crooked and uneven beams??? Help

    Thanks Things and Wannaburn. I mean the beams aren't terrible, but there is a definite angle. O well. I guess maybe its luck of the draw whether or not the person who assembles the laser centers the lense. Also, another quick question. Pertaining to pen pointers...is it normal after a...

    Crooked and uneven beams??? Help

    Hi all. I wanted to ask this question for a while now and get a response from the experienced crowd. I have noticed that most if not all of the lasers I have owned have what I call a "crooked beam." When coming out of the host at the aperature, the beam appears a couple degress of...
