    LPF History 107 – Final Exam

    I went Tuesday to CVS and got my Covid shot. I got the J&J one shot. Does your doc recommend getting vaccinated? I am happy I finally got it done and won't have to go back for the second shot. However it's likely everyone will need a booster shot later. And yes I know about the blood clots the 8...

    LPF History 107 – Final Exam

    Good stuff though. At least I know exactly what I have now. :) I am not into burning things anymore but IMO the beam is awesome. And very visible in a lit room.

    That's it! Thank you. Is that GB thread still up? I can't find it. EDIT: I found the thread. Thanks!

    LPF History 107 – Final Exam

    I am 66 and a few years ago my eye developed a macular hole. Without getting into all the misery details and the surgery required to repair it, it healed on it's own. Really a miracle because it's very rare for a macular hole to heal without intervention. I was left with a transparent floater...

    LPF History 107 – Final Exam

    It still works. I can't remember which group buy I bought it in but for those that remember timelord he got one too and he liked his as well...so that's saying something....or not...lol. I might have bought it from SenKat. The laser is a red 200mw and takes two CR123A cells.

    LPF History 107 – Final Exam

    We had our share of problems with trolls and what not back in the day....lol. I was looking at some of my old posts and was like OMG...what a mess it was at times. But the majority of time it was fun. As far as coming back I don't think I can offer much. I have not kept up with the hobby and...

    LPF History 107 – Final Exam

    Hey there! Glad to see you are still around and doing ok. I visit the forum from time to time and do also play with my toys. It hard to believe how many years have gone by since I joined this forum. I remember when we were harvesting diodes from DVD players. In fact I still have an open can...

    Awesome build jayrob. I have been busy too so I don't post much. I have always admired your builds but I think this is one of your best...if not the best. Keep it going!

    Basic Electronics Questions. AMC7135

    I edited my previous post. My bad but still when I started with the chip, and building lasers for that matter I knew nothing about them. I preferred to learn through trial and error. I gained much experience that way as well as reading this forum and using Google. Of course I asked questions if...

    Basic Electronics Questions. AMC7135

    I liked this driver so much I started a thread on it years ago. Maybe there will be some info in it that will be helpful. http://laserpointerforums.com/f42/my-analysis-amc7135-driver-26408.html Those were the days when we were buying DVD drives and harvesting diodes from them...lol

    First Laser

    No one was implying you are stupid, The advice given to you is rock solid good advice and is given out frequently. Especially considering no one knows if you know the dangers. Why couldn't you reply back with something like I understand the dangers. Thanks for the advice. I always commend...

    Pocket Scope from Jyetech - mini-review of the DIY kit (and some mod)

    Very Nice. I am really impressed with the choice you made to power the scope with Lipo's and the way you built the charger next to them. Nothing like having an all in one solution.

    Ughhh Stupid friend

    Sorry to read about your friend but what exactly happened? Was he wearing the goggles when this happened and somehow the beam entered in and reflected, or was he fooling around. Did the beam penetrate the sclera(white part of the eye)? Do you know if he will be ok?

    Got it today! :D (New style 200mW)

    Did you get the Sport Elite Goggles? They block too much. The laser shades are perfect. BTW lemonwonder:...it doesn't matter if you are pointing the laser at dark things. If you are burning things up close, eye protection is a must. You were not clear on that and since one of the main reason...

    200mw Red Laser BeamQ

    When anyone makes claims like "The best in the world! The cheapest in the world!" it raises a red flag. Neither of those statements are true and they are very misleading. I think you will get a ton of satisfaction building your own. You can do it for much less and have a 300mw to 400mw laser...
