saw it a few weeks ago and it was one of the best films I have seen in years. Definitely one to go see. Alaskan I thought of you while watching it. It was nice to see a non hollywood blockbuster action thriller on the topic of alien contact. I still think we will have confirmed contact in my...
I also own 2 Sanwus and they are very well made. Also very unique non OEM styles to their hosts. I have the 150mW 520 and its a beast. Feels great in the hand and they have a lot of keyless entry options.
Ditto what Sta said. I own a few different lasers from BTB and am always impressed with their quality. Very fair pricing too for what you get. I think had I bought a BTB laser sooner into the hobby I probably would have stuck with them for most of my WL's. Now if they only had rare colors that...
Congrats Bruce. I couldn't be happier with my 589 Spartan as well. That is one laser I will never part with. Mine has almost the exact same power graph as yours. It's peaked in the high 80's before if the battery is super freshly charged. That pic of yours close up of the beam exiting the host...
Sta- Im glad you love it as much as I did. It was a hard laser to part with but it isn't very practical for photography so I would rather have another person enjoy it then it just sit in a case. Enjoy and happy holidays to you all!
Before I took my hiatus from LPF I attempted to buy 2 PGL-C's from Tomfire. One a 589 the other a 593.5. It was a very stressful shit show with $1400 of mine on the line. Thank god I had the sense to insist on paying as goods and services and ponying up the 3% to cover my ass. still don't know...
I forgot to mention that regarding safety I store my lasers without batteries. Unless they have a key lock and saftey shudder then in that case I may keep the battery in them if I am using that laser regularly.
I have had a couple close calls mostly with momentary side buttons and lasers...
Yes the PGL-III-M is the Spartan. The seller who will remain anonymous until he decides to post publicly has a very good working relationship with CNI and lasers. In fact the 589 PGL-C I bought from him was a special order and is actually a 100mW version. As many here know the hundred plus hours...
This is why I don't agree with the "necfo" post thing. Why make duplicate threads when this ones just fine and has tons of good information. Why is duplicate threads on the exact same topic a better thing than revitalizing an old one when the replies are relevant? I do not agree that adding new...
Your PGL-C 589 I assume you're referring to? I finally got my hands on one and a PGL-M 25mW 593.5nm. They just barely cleared customs from Canada. Scheduled to be delivered next Tuesday. The old flashlight declaration trick they are onto.
I got one of the better Spartans from the peaks I see others getting. Mine avg 70-80mW and if I do a few tricks have gotten 107mW but its has to be warmed up just right then I quickly swap out a battery charged to 4.22V and it will hit over 100mW's but 162mW.... something must not be right. Not...
3 weeks every time I ordered from them. Don't worry O-like is legit. They are not the greatest but they have always done good by me. Their 532's are usually over spec too.
Same here. Their site won't work on tablets either I find.
A friend worked for William Henry Knives and they made these $800 cigar boxes. There was a batch with slight imperfections that they we not able to sell at that price they must be flawless so they gave him a couple cases of them. He gave me 8 and they make awesome laser display cases. They have...
Re: FEELER: XPL Lasers (RG:Y, RB:M, high-power 532s, etc)
Well for the 300$ Ill be the guinea pig on the 1.5W 532 nm and put it through some testing. Maybe a could borrow somebodies flir phone camera attachment and get a real thorough review of it. My best 532nm just hits 800mW. Twice that...
Re: FEELER: XPL Lasers (RG:Y, RB:M, high-power 532s, etc)
LPF discount sounds way better. I don't think people realize how much work goes into a GB, metering, bounce shipping ext.
No your'e a shit starting kid who's ignorant babble and lack of knowledge has worn thin. Get ready for -5 as soon as I can neg your ass for all the stupid posts you have left lately.
Go play with your brightest laser in the world that's about a hundred of us all have.
