Agreed. Thats what I was trying to explain (sort of) in another post. A full size projector using direct green diodes wouldn't need that many of them because of greens visibility. Plus they will only end up using green diodes if the powers can be increased thus reducing the number of diodes...

There's much bigger differences than the size. There's power consumption, heat dissipation, power stability, and the "abuse" the laser can take. Drop a DPSS green on concrete and chances are the crystals will either have dislodged or shattered. Drop a 445nm diode laser on concrete chances are...

This is the US customs DWPE (Detain Without Physical Examination) list for laser products. Wicked Laser and Bob Laser are both on the list. Import Alert 95-04

We're talking about actual direct green diodes. Not DPSS greens. Big difference

Keep in mind the $250 price tag for direct greens is the price for single diodes. The companies making these pico projectors will be placing huge orders for diodes. When ordering 10s of thousands of diodes they get the diode price down to between $35 and $90 each. As was said if the price for...

Not true. If the police have probable cause they can search whatever the hell they want without a signed warrant. In the end it is up to a judge to decide wether or not a search is legal.

I already told him all of this. They claimed to have a warrant but never showed him one. He chose to let them in.

You're supposed to be derailing this thread. How dare you post on topic.

Nobody. He's a spammer. Spammers don't have IRL friends or family. If anything he would be found after people couldn't stand the stench of his rotting corpse anymore and called the cops. But even then it wouldn't be because anyone cares about him (nobody cares about spammers) but because the...

Please go kill yourself. Im serious. Go kill yourself. Right now. This instant.

Yup it's in every state. They are allowed to detain you as long as it "reasonably" takes to perform an investigation. Now the word "reasonable" can be pretty much whatever the cops want it to be. EDIT- They didn't have to let you leave they just let you because they probably realized that in...

Heres the thing. There is a big difference between case law and statutory law. On paper everything you said is true but in real time the cops can search your car by BSing and saying that you appeared to be under the influence which would be probable cause for a search. Now when you go to court...

If they had a search warrant they would have showed it to you immediately and you would have had to sign it. You let them violate your rights for no reason.

Yea mine burns fine. What kind of stuff are you trying to burn because 175mW isn't a lot when it comes to trying to burn things. In the end the only way to know if the laser you received is capable of burning is to have it LPM'd

Not true. You could own a 500,000mW hand held pointer if you want but it is illegal to sell them without FDA approval and FDA safety features. Actual possession of one is not illegal. EDIT- sigurthr beat me to it.

I think he means line per inch. Some gratings are measured per inch and some per mm which gets annoying as hell when your looking for them.

This is great! Honestly the prices are so low already that I don't know how much lower they could even go for a group buy so it's no big deal if he doesn't quite get it. $850 for a 1,700-1,800mW 532 with DHL shipping is (excuse my language) fucking awesome. I think I might have to place my order...

Yea I'm not sure what the hell is going on with it

LoL I know, I loaded it in a separate page and saw it.
