    Lazerer RIFLE V2 1.2W (12% overspec)

    Mine arrived a few days ago, but part of the order is still in-transit (i'll put together a review of the 405 RIFLE once the rest arrives). My 445 1.3W certified right at 1300mW, but I've yet to test it on my meter. I wil llet you know when I do.

    Lazerer RIFLE V2 1.2W (12% overspec)

    Cool review - I'm tempted! +1 OK, dangit -- I was more than tempted ... I ordered one. I also ordered a 405 .5W, and I'll review it when it arrives :)

    IQS #80 Pen - $18

    My first 2 IQS lasers - a ~80mW and a ~100mW - do not pop balloons unaided. With a jeweler's loope or the 20mm focal length objective from a telescope, they will light matches and pop balloons. My #120 pen (tested at ~160mW) will pop balloons on fresh batteries at close range.

    IQS #80 Pen - $18

    Thank you both! I just lightened the blue up a little -- is it better? Do you have a recommended "bright blue"? I would not like to make things hard to read ever.

    IQS #80 Pen - $18

    Since it is not focusable, I never attempted to burn anything with it -- it is focused for long distance (i.e., out to infinity), not for close-up (burning). I just tried popping a black balloon with mine, and it would not, as I expect. My 200mW and 300mW green from IQS, when focused, burn...

    IQS #80 Pen - $18

    I need to get an IR filter to test with. On other's tests, I have seen max of ~ 18% IR. On my #300 from IQS (tested at 400mW), when I remove the focusing assembly, the power went up to 500+mW, which led me to believe that either there is an IR filter on it, or the focusing array has a...

    [Edit - this was in reply to the "I don't know why" from the previous page -- I somehow got fooled into thinking I was at the end -- dangit I'm still too green!] Neither me -- I've been "waiting" since he first started talking about it -- by my count, a bit over 5 months now -- and am still...

    CREE host for cheap?

    For those who have bought form LaserQuickShip / ItemQuick Ship, they just posed a $9 flashlight host that looks like it might make a good host, including adjustable focus setup. I have not seen one in person to know how well they would work for sure, but have seen other talking about CREE-type...

    IQS (itemquick ship) Laser Round-up

    How did you disassemble yours? I think I may hae to do the same to mine -- it is exiting at ~10-15deg angle, and while not mode-hopping, it is not reaching its full power. I want to test without the focusing assembly, but don't want to break it ...

    IQS (itemquick ship) Laser Round-up

    Really sorry to hear that rhd ... I have 6 of his lasers (all green), and have had this happen to none of them. I have between 15 and 30 minutes of "on-time" on each of them, in 30sec increments. If you have a LPM, can you tell us what power the laser is giving when it is red-dot but no...
