    Hey, I just got a note from IQS stating that an LPF member sent them an email stating that they had reported them to eBay and the FDA. They stated that they bought and forwarded one unopened to a specific person at the FDA. They go on to say that "these are illegal for a reason, and people...

    IQS (itemquick ship) Laser Round-up

    Update on my OP: I just re-tested and got a peak of 198 (!) mW on the #150 3998 host. It settled down to ~ 185mW, but WOW! I really need to make those jigs to hold the lasers steady, and I really need something like a Kenometer Pro to log to my PC ...

    IQS (itemquick ship) Laser Round-up

    Bummer. IQS will definitely take care of you! What batteries did you put in them first? I have heard that some of the Lithium (Energizer Ultimates maybe?) fry pens ... Let us know what you hear. Make sure you email him to let him know the return USPS tracking #, and remind him when thety...

    ARCTIC HOST feeler! interested? READ

    My "1" will depend on final price & timing. I think I can manage it, as long as the due-date does not hit at a bad time ... jakeGT: if the above forces you to drop me, so be it. I would like to stay tentative though...

    Someone tried and it failed instantly. I'll look for the post and link it Enigma: you beat me to it! Your edit is spot-on too. The stock battery does not bring it to peak, but a charged Tenergy 900mAh makes one of mine hit 130+mW!

    IQS (itemquick ship) Laser Round-up

    I thought I'd read on another of the IQS threads that someone had talked him into shipping to Canada, that there was an additional charge, but it was not a lot and the shipment did actually arrive OK ... Did I mis-read that? Have you emailed him using the email sampson provided?

    IQS (itemquick ship) Laser Round-up

    Hey -- I just saw this on IQS shop: 3in1 #100 Green Laser Pointer W LED Light Star SlowBurn. I asked IQS, and he says it will be around 100mW, and will actually burn (not sure how much/how far yet). Anyone interested in multi-function hosts like this?

    Blue Light Hazard Questions

    Is it true that the green-leeching can affect your color percpetion for a long time (like 6 months)? MikeMSD: look at some color charts / wheels, and tell us if you note any difference in colors ... blues being washed our or pale, greens looking different ,etc. Like the others said, I sure...

    ATTENTION!! Everybody needs to read this and take action NOW(New Bill/USA)

    Re: ATTENTION!! Everybody needs to read this and take action NOW This would seem to be a good idea (to codify a Code of Conduct and get everyone to voluntarily sign / agree to it. We'd need someone who was truly respected in the Laser Hobby to author it. We also, sad to say, need an...

    IQS (itemquick ship) Laser Round-up

    The outdoor pic (first beam show above) was a standard setup snap, so that is what the #100-2 (~120-136mW) looks like on normal exposure outdoors, at night, with a flash distracting you :) I was trying to figure out how to take a normal-time picture with no flash, but the smarter-than-me camera...

    IQS (itemquick ship) Laser Round-up

    I'm so ignorant of photographic terms, I'm not sure how to answer. The camera was on full-auto, then I manually turned off the flash and set the ISO to 800. The F stop generally showed 5, and the speed was 1/3sec (which I thought meant 1/3rd of a sec, but I counted to 3 each time I clicked...

    CHECK STATUS OF YOUR VISION: Quick retina test.

    +1 for the tests :thanks: BTW, try being -14.75 sph, 3.75 cyl in one eye, -15.25 sph, 2.25 the other. The mental picture from one eye is so much "bigger" than the other, there is no way to see stereo no matter how hard the eye doctor tries.:cryyy:
