    Gas Lasers? Tell me about them please :)

    I only heard of Gas lasers when joining this forum but don't get them at all. They seem to be 0.5-5mW but cost ridiculous amounts; $100+ for a 1mW laser? What's different about them to normal lasers and why are they so popular? Thanks :)

    50mW Green from MegaLaserUK

    MegaLaserUK - the site with mixed reviews just about everywhere though most are unclear. Hopefully this will be clear :) To get the bad points out of the way: I ordered it on wednesday night, about 9pm BST. I payed with credit card and I immediatly noticed 2 things: the first that it didn't...

    megalaseruk anyone?

    So I still haven't made my decision about which laser to go for :P After deal extreme said products could take up to a month to arrive and took no responsibilities once it left them (customs charges, confiscations, etc) I lost confidence. megalaseruk.com are (obviously) based in the UK and...

    Hi all, I'm thinking of going for the 40mw green laser from optotronics (Optotronics Product Details) and it comes to about $105 with shipping ($27 shipping, would save almost $20 by being in US, but oh well) which is about £60. Seems reasonable but: -Are there any hidden costs? VAT? Import...

    15mW, 35mW or 55mW?

    Hi, I'm aware there are probably many posts about this over the forum, but I have some specific requirements, and being new to lasers I thought I'd ask here. A few years ago I got a red laser (1mW) at a french market, and got really interested in lasers, but (at the time) didn't have the time...
