Thank you. There have been a few changes in the last 12 years :giggle:
Going to start with some low power diodes I think. Will have to purchase new eye protection as well. Lots to learn.
I have the 50mW Green laser unit and I like it. Don't know the actual power until I get my LPM-1 meter.
Without smoke the beams are just visible on mine but I would think I would need smoke or the 260mW model without it. Smoke is a lasers shows best friend :)
The spread of the beams are quite...
Although I later purchased a Lanling laser show, I first decided to make a spiro device.
All three fan/mirrors are independently controlled using a front bay standard computer fan controller. I put in the cheapest PSU I could find. It's like a 380 watt supply but is really only suppling...
Just one more thing to add. I looked at Astronomy magazine today(checking out refractors) and the back section is filled with ads for green laser pointers. If I remember correctly Wicked has at least a half-page ad but there were many other sellers I've never heard of.
I want an inexpensive beam expander/collimator, something like 10x.
My 20 year old binoculars can even do 3x, so I was thinking of using a refracting telescope instead.
A laser beam expander is based on an Galilean telescope so it should be fairly simple. I've tried the one from Information...

Hmmm....PINK laser?
Use a 405nm laser and a 675nm laser.
Combine with a dichro. and ta da! PINK .
Your results may vary.

I was searching for a hidden gem amongst all the laser riffraff on eBay and found this.
I of course being the smart ass ... err I mean smart buttocks that I am had to embellish it just a bit with my own humor.
Here's hoping all future scams will be so easy to detect.

I've seen posts on how the human eye shifts its sensitivity to the blue end of the color spectrum at night. While 555nm is the "holy grail" wavelength, many of us use lasers at night for better visibility.
Anyone know the exact wavelength that the eye acquires best when dark adapted or have a...
I have the EnVee 80mW and it seems fine but no way to know its true output until my meter arrives. I have two different IR filters on the way as well. One of those is a BG-39 Schott Glass filter with a plotted transmission curve and chart for all the wavelengths.
I would probably go for the...
So I'm very close to buying one of these. It's 50mW green only, but has lot's of patterns and is one of the less expensive scanners with DMX if I should ever use it. The slightly cheaper 40mW scanner information says 50 patterns and 200 effects while the L105G lists 100 patterns and 300 effects...
Re: Looking for a quality IR filter for LPM-1 mete
Thanks for the replies everyone. It seems the IR is not as diffused as I thought and I'm going to get an IR filter.
I'd like to take you up on your 10x10mm IR filter Pseudo. Even if it doesn't come with transmittance figures at 532nm it's...
