From reading this forum five years back there was a lot of posts on how direct green diodes were developed for use in laser video projectors.
I have google and almost every top end laser projector on the market still uses blue diodes along with color changing phosphors to get red and green...
I have a guides-man 1.3W 445nm. The hosts has a crappy push button toggle switch that sticks and will not go down all the way when the batteries are in.
I can never be sure what state the switch is in when I put in the batteries in so I have to have glasses on. (Always a good precaution...
I have two green pointers which are under 30mw and 20mw 405nm.
After I view a laser spots on the wall, I sometimes get twitching in my forehead and eyes become overly sensitive . It happens immediately when I turn on my 20mw 405nm which I have had on a total of 10 seconds since I got it...
I got an IR filte from Lazerlands
I got a 30mw green pen from Lazerlands. The pen was kind of a CheapO so I was worried about the IR. I ordered some IR filters off of ebay that arrived in about 15 days. They are tiny, not much bigger than the opening on the Laser so mounting it was kind of a...
I have ordered a 30mw 685nm diode off ebay. I am looking for an easy way to make it into a laser. Is there a cheap 650nm laser where I can just swap the 650 with the 685 diode easily? I'm a am new to this and I'd rather not build a whole laser one piece at a time.
Hi this is my first post but I have been lurking for a while now.
I am thinking of getting this laser.

Does anyone have it and know if it works. I have heard that the 450 diodes are unstable...
