    Newbie here seeking advice.

    Welcome to the forums! First off what color laser are you considering? $160 for a 40mW of red green or violet seems quite pricey to me... I would suggest looking in the review forum (http://laserpointerforums.com/f52/) and the companies forum (http://laserpointerforums.com/f41/) before you...

    laser and fusion power

    A nice read for sure. I love the potential fusion power production has; and with lasers? All the better ;) But I must admit I am more confident in the feasibility of magnetic confinement fusion systems, such as that being developed at ITER, read: ITER - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Farthest your laser has gone for sure?

    Well space is actually a pretty complete vacuum, and unless you were to shine it though an area with fine, densely packed, debris, you wouldn't see the beam since a laser's beam is just the photons reflecting off of particles they encounter. The DOT however would be able to forever technically...

    I hate that our minds can't possibly comprehend how impossibly small we really are. You've all probably seen this, but I don't think that anyone puts our size in more eloquent terms than the late Carl Sagan: YouTube - Carl Sagan - Pale Blue Dot

    impossible black laser?..

    I think you're thinking of Dark Energy when you say negative energy, because THAT is what is hypothetically accelerating the expansion of the universe. Also I think you may be thinking that photons are a form of matter...this is not the case; photons are strictly energy. Although it is...

    O-Like Company Thread!

    Re: O-Like Shipped my order just in time :D Despite China being westernized at a staggering rate, it's still a very different culture from what we're all used to. From what I understand the New Year is as much about Chinese pride as it is about celebrating the new year, so it makes since that...

    Which O-Likes are best?

    Here's a review of it: http://laserpointerforums.com/f52/o-like-150mw-blurray-pen-45637.html I recently ordered the same laser. While the pictures of the power output are gone, apparently it's right up to spec :) I'm excited when it finally ships lol

    Which O-Likes are best?

    A lot of that depends on your personal preference, I personally love the color of blu-ray; but green is best for sky-pointing or just generally seeing the beam (since our eyes are most sensitive to green wavelengths). For red you can get a lot of bang (power-wise) for your buck from O-like, like...

    He-Ne Project box Pics.

    I always love "High Voltage" warnings, as if a high voltage itself is enough to do harm to people lol In any case that's an awesome retro looking laser, I've always thought that gas laser innards look absolutely badass ;)

    Worst customer service!

    I am currently in the process of returning a 50mW violet laser to warn for a refund...The quality was horrible but they claim they will refund what I paid minus the shipping once they receive it...Hopefully they will follow through. I can vouch for the poor English, my email correspondence with...

    General IR / green laser questions.

    Ok I searched up on the IR thing...and I think it would be extremely hard to be exposed to IR from a green laser without pointing it or reflecting it such that it directly hits one of your eyes... While it's possible I don't think I would be exposed enough, especially since I will mainly be...

    General IR / green laser questions.

    Hi all, I'm going to be buying a few new lasers in the near future, and the two I'm set on so far are the 150mW and 10mW Violet lasers from O-like. I've read good things about them and am looking forward to purchasing them. However I'd also like to add a higher powered green laser to my laser...

    "Noise Halo" on a new 50mW violet laser

    Ok good advice, I think if I return this laser and buu the O-Like 100mW then I will definitely make sure to buy a pair of safety goggles... Now I guess we shall see how good wrnlaser.com's customer support / return policy is sigh...

    "Noise Halo" on a new 50mW violet laser

    Damn...oh well I suppose I can always still return it for the price of the laser at this point and buy from somewhere else... So far I've read good things about O-like; but 100mW, from what i've read, seems to be getting in the range where I'd need to be extremely careful where I point it, no...

    "Noise Halo" on a new 50mW violet laser

    Thanks for the quick reply! Good to know I'm not the only one who experiences the fuzz haha but I must say the color is quite stunning. Another question though: was paying around $150 for a 50mW a rip off? I just realized that o-like.net has a 100mW for less than half the price with an...

    "Noise Halo" on a new 50mW violet laser

    Hi, I recently purchased my first "powerful" laser, a 50mW 405nm laser from warnlaser (UV Lasers/Ultraviolet Lasers (Violet laser ) Laser Pointer- Warnlaser.com) This is the first laser I have owned that is > 5mW in power, so I am not sure if one aspect of its behavior is typical of higher...

    What happened to the x-105?

    Hi, I currently have a wimpy little 5 mW green laser, and I was interested in spending around $200 in the near future on a laser, and from what I've read on these forums, as well as others, nova lasers seems to be the way to go. I also have noticed that people seem to be very happy with the...
