From some other threads mentioned here on LPF I understand that CNI produces a 1.1 Watt 532 nm handheld laser. I wrote to them inquiring about such a laser and seeking confirmation of availability. I received a response from Ava ZHENG (though no confirmation) to which I responded but now I...

Share link: http://d.ro/laserbolt atEIQeytY9Q There was a big thunderstorm that blew through the other day with rather intense downpours and so I decided to record some video of one of my pocket 1 Watt blue laser beams in the rain. By chance I happened to capture the beam smack in the middle...

DIY Gin and Tonic Laser - How to Make a Laser Out of Gin and Tonic - Popular Mechanics Gave me a good chuckle. The article describes a pumping setup that relies upon a 20W CO2 laser to make G&T lase. Under the conditions described they managed to get, "0.00001 watts of coherent gin laser light"...

For some season's greetings I made the following video showing some 1 Watt blue laser beams in the falling snow plus a 150 mW Greenie. LUGck9mNMDA The Full HD version and sharing link can be had here: http://d.ro/lasersnow/ Cheers! -Scott

Came across this video today: MovvftU5rFo Full size version: YouTube - Make: Projects - Laser Projection Microscope I am duly impressed. So simple but amazing results! -Scott

After having read this thread about popping popcorn with lasers I decided to track down what that was about. I had never watched the 80s film "Real Genius" before and so I was not familiar with the laser popping popcorn scene. Nor was I aware that the Mythbusters had confirmed that it was...

One of my YouTube videos was getting visits from a video entitled, "REAL Iron Man Laser Glove" and so I went and watched and was duly impressed. Here it is: PCnDsR5kLOQ I then found it covered over on HackedGadgets.com...

With the help of a friend I got some cool beam shot video of shining one of my 1 Watt Blue pocket lasers down from the top and 2nd level of the Eiffel Tower as well as a couple of beam shots towards the tower. This was the first time that I have ever attempted something like this and so it was a...

So I saw these two videos on YouTube showing bunnies opening up letters: Video 1: YouTube - MIT Bunny Letter Opener Video 2: YouTube - Bunny letter opener Which made me think, "Hmm, my laser can do that!" So here is the result of that - QRiFvvh6PI0 HD version and Twitter/Facebook/Etc. share...

So after my 'Laser Triple Play' video I decided to deepen the 'balloons inside of a balloon' motif and made the following video featuring 5 balloons. I was a bit disappointed by the Triple Play video as it did not come across as 'lasery' enough. I made an effort to draw out the laser aspect of...

Greetings fellow laser enthusiasts! An old Leadlight 105 of mine has recently gone to laser heaven in the form of a dying 808 nm pump diode. As far as I can tell nothing else is wrong with it and so I want to tap into the existing crystals and brass module by replacing the diode and circuitry...

Some folks were finding one of my YouTube videos from this styropyro video below and so I watched it and found it quite cool: zihZiGUKUS8 Nicely done styropyro! -Scott

Thought this would be fun to add to the collection of photos here. Back when the PS3 revolution took hold I whipped me up a simple project box host that looked like this: It was soooo extremely cool to finally have another color to add to my collection of handheld lasers! Good...

t9EErFAGoYw HD version: http://d.ro/laserpop I shot this video awhile ago trying to just do a plain jane standard balloon popping video with some friends but in the process I caught an interesting effect. The red balloon was fairly translucent and so the intact beam could effectively pass...

To demonstrate the burning ability of my recently acquired/assembled 12X Blu ray laser I decided to make the following video: fJ77l23xwak Full HD version and Twitter/Facebook/Etc. share link here: http://d.ro/laserwrite To make it a bit more interesting than your average burn demo video I...

Having watched a couple of videos (Jayrob's phaser vid comes to mind) showing lasers igniting flash paper as well as previously reading about popping a darker balloon inside a transparent balloon I decided to do a bit of a mash-up. J3xosVS4NOk Full HD version and Twitter/Facebook/Etc. share...

Greetings, I am looking for a Pioneer BDR-205 sled or diode. This is also sold as a Plextor PX-B940SA. Please send me a p.m. Thanks! -Scott

Wondering if a Laser-induced fluorescence laser exists? It'd work a bit like the frequency doubling DPSS lasers except that coherent fluorescent light would be emitted. 405 nm lasers seem like they'd be the perfect candidate to cause a crystalline substance to fluoresce and have the...
