Just a heads up if you are experiencing shipping delays. I made purchases from two companies in late November (11/20). I bought a couple of Wii controllers from DealExtreme that just arrived 2/4 and then the following day I received two laser pens I ordered from Focalprice. I have purchased...

Just tried this experiment with an IR filter. yxLiJDsDsjk There is a 18% reduction (131mW) on a Arctic G2. Should I assume 18% non IR power loss at different frequencies (532nm)? I got 43mW out of a green pointer. With filter it measures 29mW. 18% = 7.74 round to 8mW for glass loss. That...

I saw the original post for the Alpha just a few hours after it came up. I emailed them and got a prompt, friendly response from Brad (Spyrorocks) about stock and availability. I ordered and they shipped it the next day. :gj:

a-RVzJUNdwk Interesting suggestion for modding the Arctic with a remote switch or external power supply. Details from this website. He measured the current draw at 530mA....

I am putting together a list of do's and don'ts for Arctic owners who don't have time to pour through the forums (of which some useful threads have been deleted). Please don't make this a "I hate Wicked Lasers and Arctics" discussion. There are plenty of those around. My wish is to help the...

Greetings all My name is Dave and I'm in the Gainesville area. I'm a retired auto mechanic with cameras and computers as interests (and now lasers). Been lurking ever since the Artic surfaced at Slickdeals and have read this forum extensively. I'll try to avoid the noob mistakes. I have...
