Wow. You have some talent with photography. That's a really nice shot

The lighting in the third picture + the red beam looks fantastic. You have some nice beamshots there

Those beam shoots are incredible. Good job!

Welcome back! I've also just come back to the forums. 7W sounds crazy. Why would you even need that for hobby purposes haha

Hey everyone, my name is Shivang and I live in NW Ohio. I've had some experiences with <5mW lasers a few years ago and I want to reintroduce myself to the world of lasers. I ordered a 100mW 520nm off of blord and waiting for that to come in (glasses already ordered). Glad to be here, you guys...

Kevin replied to me from laserbtb and told me the duty cycle of the pen (#1) is 5s on 1s off. Which, in a way, is nice because I can get quick short bursts, but ehhh that could be annoying. Yeah, the 50mW does sound like a good option for me, especially since it will be less affected by...

Yep, thanks for the reply guys. So this thread is answered with "THAT bad". Going to avoid this company.

I think I'll do that, thanks man, I'm so indecisive. If anybody has other lasers that fit my budget, or any other opinions, please let me know :)

Thanks for the replies guys. #3 will be about 2.5x brighter than #2. That's a big jump... I guess I should just wait until thejoker has #3 in stock again?

I guess this is very hard to just "guess" but HOW low do you think the duty cycle will be? Like, at least 60 seconds on/60 seconds off? Or even shorter than that? #3 has a 60 sec on/off duty cycle. Any idea of how much brighter a 100mW 532nm beam (#3) will be compared to a 50mw 520nm (#2) beam?

My last 2 days have been nothing but looking up lasers, reading reviews, understanding the technology, and I think I'm ready to purchase. Here are the candidates. Can someone help me choose? Excluding the glasses (I've already placed an order), I have a $100 budget (shipping has to be included...

I know lazerer used to be amazing. Max would reply to all emails and always got issues sorted away. But now I've been reading around the forums and it seems like they are going downhill. Just, how far down are they? Are they so bad now that I shouldn't even consider ordering from them? They...

Yeah, just matches/balloons small things like that. But yeah, I feel ya. I just don't want you know 500mw,1w, etc because I can't really toy around with that. (I can't toy around with 150w either, it's still very powerful).

Thank you so much for the information, that really helps. :) Do you have an IDEA or somewhat of an estimate, on which one will burn better? 50mW 520nm or 150mW 532nm DPSS. You said DPSS were very bad at burning, but will it be better than the 50mW because of just obvious power increase?

Yeah, I intend on getting an eagle pair that covers both the green wavelengths (so 520/532/whatever) and IR (808/1064). Also, do you know what it means by "single mode" here? HL 520nm 30mW-150mW I might save up a little more and get the HL520- 150.

So would this work? HL 520nm 30mW-150mW Except for $80 I can only get around a 50W laser if I chose to go the 520nm laser diode route instead of a 150W 532nm DPSS laser. Is it worth going the 520nm and losing 100W of power? Or should I just go for the 150W and deal with the fluctuations in...

I want to buy a green laser. Not toooo powerful, but somewhere around 100-150MW. The two I have my eyes on are the: LP 532nm 150mw from laserbtb: LP 515nm 532nm 1-150 and then the 80-120mw from sci-fi lasers (SF501B 532nm GreenSF): SF501B 532nm Green My question is, I keep reading up on how...

I am not sure. If it does not have an IR filter will it emit IR at both 808nm and 1064nm? or just 1064? The second one doesn't protect against 808nm.

That makes sense, thanks both of you. :) This is almost silly to ask, but which eagle pair do you guys suggest? 1.) These are the cheapest at $42 but in description it says "532nm DPSS green lasers that DO NOT produce significant amounts of unfiltered 1064nm infrared light". So it won't really...

Hey everyone. I might be getting a 400mW green laser soon (or maybe blue, haven't decided). I was researching around this forum and other forums for glasses, and the S1933X keeps coming up (amazon link: Uvex S1933X Skyper Safety Eyewear, Black Frame, SCT-Orange UV Extreme Anti-Fog Lens - Safety...
