Now let me start by saying that I'm not sure if this would be a good host for a laser or not. I'm thinking it might be a bit too expensive to make a good host.. but I thought I would share anyway, see what you guys think: Apollo AP-1 Tactical Flashlight by Cybernetic Research Labs ? Kickstarter

I haven't been around here for a while.. but I thought some of you guys might be interested in how my laser glove project is progressing. I finally got a decent camera and put together some footage that goes over the laser gloves. Here is a video: For more info, visit my site: Trinary Products.

Would it be possible to take one laser at about 30mw and split it evenly into 5 fiber coupling lines? Has anyone here tried to do this?

So here is the scenario: I can get a 650nm diode for much less than a 635nm. Even at double the power the 650 is still 40% cheaper than the 635. So I'm wondering if there's much difference. Which one would you go with?

Omg omg omg, i roxzor!!!!

Some of you probably recall my laser glove project that I started a few months ago. Well I finally have a set of green laser gloves that is good enough to sell, and I've listed them on etsy! Take a look. BTW, for anyone reading this thread later: this was originally a link to my etsy listing...

Quote from supplier: I particularly like the note of joviality in the message. I have never seen Carrie laugh before. This Chinese new year must be quite entertaining. Practically anyone who orders lasers can expect extra delays this time of year. haha :san:

I'm trying to figure out why our eyes work the way they do in respect to color. What mechanism makes us see green so brightly? I have heard quite a few smart people with something to say about it, but a lot of what I have heard is contradictory. I was looking at this site recently, which has...

I am looking at a fiber coupled laser module and I'm having a really hard time finding detailed information that I can understand on just what a fiber coupled laser is. The impression I am getting is that the diode is on one side of a fiber optic cable and the optics are on the other side. I am...

Hello everyone. My Chinese supplier has just asked me if I wanted to add a UV filter to my laser in order to make them less likely to fail. I've tried to think of a reason, but try as I might I can't see how a UV filter would help. So my question is this: Can UV light damage a laser diode? Is...

I work with smaller diodes at lower power. My Chinese supplier has just told me that he has just gotten the technology to make me a 470nm at 10mw that is just larger than a AA battery. It's a bit spendy at the moment, but i'm hoping the price will drop soon. I am wondering if anyone knows what...

Hi, not sure where to post this, but I wanted to share my new toy with you guys :) 5 x 5mw green diodes! Edit to add the video below to the first post: What do you guys think?

Hi, new to this forum. I've been messing around with cheap commercial lasers for a while now and it has occurred to me that it would be really nice to be able to verify what frequency a laser is actually outputting at. For instance, I have a cheap red laser pointer here and I would like to...
