Wait, I have NOT put ANY effort into the gofundme- it was just to familiarize myself with it.
There are at least a dozen companies making claims about "brightest" and "longest lasting" backed by zero evidence.
The ideal pigment size is 50nm, and it may very well be that there are only a handful...
Wow, you guys blow me away with your knowledge. Never imagined it would scale that fast with wavelength. So 405nm should work fine, this is one of those mini crossbow novelties. I would like to add it and make glow ammo as well as an aiming point. They don't shoot more than 25 M so I am hoping...
I can get pointers that work perfectly well on the auction site for $5. They usually measure pretty close to 5mw.
I haven't ever taken apart a pointer so not sure if it's possible to just gut one and still get it to focus.
Hi all,
Anyone ever see a really small blue, purple, or (visible) uv pointer or anything with an easy switch?
Project in the works to mount one on a mini crossbow that I'm making ultra gliw in the dark ammo for.
Power is not an issue, just something that I can mount to serve as a combination...
It saves 5 minutes because it charges way faster than anything else. I AM on the hunt for a good blacklight to plug in- I ordered some T8 fluorescent bulbs and am going to compare to LED of similar wattage, but I think that the flourescent is going to win.
Do we talk about fluorescents and LED's...
I understand where you are coming from.. I am a responsible adult that respects a understands most of the science and safety.
The point of charging with a laser is the difference of being able to save 5 minutes per bead which adds up to hours and days even of what I am able to produce in my...
Is there any particular style to look for? I see many that look similar- the design with the black body and keys for example.
I ordered a $5 blue laser and was not impressed, does not look to even be 5mW
Been a long time guys! Hope everyone is doing well. Last time I visited the forums green lasers were about $300. Just curious, does everyone see the front page of the forums as a stretched out column on the right hand side? Looked in account preferences and couldn't find a way to adjust.
My...
Hey! lol I haven't been here in ages! Not sure if you are still active but I have some new projects so I will be around for a while. Likewise to your user name!
Apologies for not getting that review done... it's deer season where I live and I need to fill the freezer... our family only eats wild game, no store raised meat so I need to get a bunch in there while the gettins' good. On a related note, I've been carrying a low power green laser to mess with...
I can see it about 3-4 X as bright as my high quality 5mW I bought for about $200-300 10 years ago if that helps. It;s a very thin beam but I can't imagine you would even want anything much brighter, you could never look at the dot on a wall 10 or 20 feet away with this thing, even a decently...
I'm sorry I will try and get a review done with pics! I can't tell the power but it pops baloons easy, came quick, and seems sturdy... runs on aa batteries, came with a kaleidoscope attachment, very cool and I have no reason to doubty them that they picked a 206mW one out for me... go for it. I...
Evening all, I am not bringing up this topic to be a troll or stir up a hornet's nest but I'm wondering if there have been any reliable posts here documenting bodily injury due to a laser. I did a search both here and on Google and the only thing I came up with was a banned member with a troll...
I tried to light a fuse with it but no dice... so perhaps it is a bit less than I thought. By painting clouds I guess you mean looking at the dot on them? I've heard rumors you can actually punch a hole in a low cloud with a powerful enough laser...
I put the glasses on when looking at the dot...
Mine is AWESOME... they claim it is 206mW hand picked for me... I believe it... they were honest and straightforward about everything else, it arrived in about a week, and they even threw in a few extras. Cool folks, great laser!
I found Rayfoss through the "Buying your first green laser pointer" sticky here and I have to say I am very impressed with what they sent!!!
I got their 150mW LED/pointer combo shipped for about $65. They hand picked one they say is 206mW and I'm inclined to believe it, this is REALLY bright...
I don't know what to search for in the forums, so forgive me if this has been addressed. I'm looking for something that is prebuilt that does laser effects- preferably something in 3d that you can use with fog. I'm wondering what this is called and if there are prebuilt units that can be...
