1W Blue Laser vs. Thermometer!

[styropyro]

I get a lot of questions on YouTube asking how "hot" a certain laser is. Instead of attempting to explain differing units, I came up with this instead:



That laser in the video is a Pailide build. 1W in a host that small has its problems.

Wow! I didn't think the result would be that instantaneous.

 

[Cam453]

Wow I'm still not clear how hot that laser is. The thermometer stopped working :na:

 

[Foshizzle45]

Wow, that was awesome, I never expected for it to explode. lol but like Cam453 said, we still don't know how hot it was:oke:

We can be for certain on the temp...but at least we know it's at least 130 F.

I sort of want to try this with my 470mw blu-ray.

I like your Videos!

It's crazy!!!

Very sweet video ,,,its the 1st time i seen someone blow up a thermometer

 

[Wolfman29]

So I still wanna figure out how hot this thing is

 

[Guyfromhe]

I wanna know how long it takes to heat up soup!

 

[Wolfman29]

That would be a while, if ever! 1W would take 1100 times as long as a microwave at 1100W... I wonder if the soup would cool faster than the laser could heat it up! Also, remember the laser would mostly pass through the clear stuff that makes up the soup.

I lol'd.

What about a cream soup thats not clear... Maybe we need someone with a 1W laser to do an experiment? Maybe I have an excuse to buy a 1W laser or a 100 Watt laser!

i heard it takes 450 degrees to light wood, so it must get REALLY hot

 

[Helios]

HAHA I can see it already....its a new noob guage for "how to tell if your o-like laser is up to spec" If it is it should be able to:

Smoke black plastic
burn paper
pop balloons
light matches
explode thermometers

I can even hear it already "My laser isnt up to spec. It cant even explode my dads thermometer!"

ROFL

And a new sensation of youtube 445 videos begin and the timeless question replaced by...

But can it explode a thermometer?
