I would tend to agree with this logic; rarely does a company design their own website, especially when it's a company that has nothing to do with web services. Is it wrong? Yeah, but we don't know the whole story, for all we know that's a photo that laservision used, and that O-like paid for...

I have the "10mW" pointer from )-like, and it usually puts out around 18mW. Personally, I prefer the focusable for violets, especially if you want to play with fluorescent materials; it's lots of fun to defocus the beam just to cover more area. Don't worry about O-like's reputation, they have...

You need goggles that are red in color. If you plan on getting more powerful lasers in the future (like 100mW+) and have the spare cash, I would DEFINITELY recommend buying certified laser protection goggles. You can search the forums for sellers, or buy from somewhere like here. If you don't...

Re: Another review of the cheap focalprice goggles! (LPM Image Heavy) @randomlugia - That's a good idea, I will try something like that in the next few dats and edit in any significant changes. @KLLrB - Thanks! I try my best to provide relevant information with the equipment I'm lucky to have :)

Re: Another review of the cheap focalprice goggles! (LPM Image Heavy) [Somewhat off-topic] Oh I know all about the long waits haha. I placed my original focalprice order on 2/6/10, and it didn't ship until 2/24/10 because apparently the 8gb usb drive I ordered, and ALL other 8gb ones were out...

Unfortunately if it's less than 50mW there's no great way to tell without an LPM or a laser of known power to compare it to. You could send it to a member with an LPM if you really do want to know, or if someone lives close enough you could probably drive and have them compare it. If you're...

^ Yeah you make a good point, it seems unnecessary to take too much effort for accuracy considering this is just a hobby haha. A calibration party sounds like a barrel of laughs to me too ;) Too bad a lot of us are scattered throughout this planet; someone develop teleportation NOW! hehe

Re: Another review of the cheap focalprice goggles! (LPM Image Heavy) Thanks for the kind words guys! @Superman, yeah I got all 3 in the same envelope with the usb flash drive I ordered, sorry to hear yours were destroyed during transit :/

^ I would definitely agree with this, our retinas aren't adept at sensing 405nm light, so the image is blurry. Our brains don't like this and tell the eyes to focus and "clear up" the image, causing your irises to dilate and contract, which, like any other muscle, makes them sore. And as long...

For anyone wondering, when talking about my new toy with a friend, he mentioned that he has (what he thought) was an LPM that his dad gave him since he didn't need it anymore (his dad works with general computer hardware, so I guess he uses it with CD/DVD players?). He showed it to me and it...

*Updated 4/10/10* Scroll down for results of the new green laser as well as IR-filtered data. Intro As the title suggests, this is another review of the $8 anti-green focalprice goggles as seen here. I believe they are also the same model that LaserLands is selling here and that O-like is...

jayrob, I received the kit today and plan on soldering a by-pass tomorrow and everything should be good to go after that! (I think?) This is really one sweet little host. One question though: I read that you just cut off the red wire from the board, and is that all that I need to do after I...

WOW, all of that from one laser shop? That's amazing, I wish we had laser shops like that in the US :( For anyone wondering, the handhelds (including the claimed 1W green) start on page 92. Although I'm pretty sure the "GLP-III-405" and some of the 808nm lasers are falsely listed as DPSS systems.

I think his review thread indicates it averages 111.9mW with a 150mW peak...http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/2850/20100318222036.jpg Also I don't think it's exactly spamming, jeffrey just needs to learn a some forum rules and etiquette, which should just come with time.

Most of the ones I own, the 1000mAh OEM LaCrosse-branded ones that came with my charger stay above 1.4V for a good 30 minutes of use in my O-like green ~86mW of power output on the fully charged batteries. The standard 850mAh energizers and 750mAh LSD yuasa enitimes I own aren't quite as good...

As I suspected, thanks for the clarification and information. Yes, I noticed this too, before I take any readings I let the meter "warm-up" and make sure the ambient reading isn't fluctuating before I zero it out and actual measure the laser's power. Thanks for the tip! I might try to fashion...

Yeah, I figured that being so old they would almost certainly be beyond professional calibration, but I thought I'd just confirm to be sure. Got the attachments btw, thanks! hahaha I know that the vast amount of information on LPF keeps me from "going postal"...I consider being a laser...

Yeah I even noticed this after a few hours of using my 365 + 360001, when the resolution is set to 200mW even sticking my finger about a half a meter in front of the aperture raises the reading by about a mW! That may not seem like much but I think it speaks a lot to the sensitivity and...

Thanks for all the replies guys! Sent a couple PMs... Also if anyone was wondering, Scientech responded and they DO NOT offer calibration services for such an old meter/head.

While it's true that alkaline and lithiums have more consistent and higher starting voltage, NiMH rechargeables take a WHILE to drop down to 1.2V. Most of my AAAs and AAs come out of the charger at 1.45V and I'll generally charge them back up when they start to near the 1.2V mark.
