got one of these, wow. i think the color difference is cool as hell. I never realized how blue my 445nms werent. next to my old 1W 445nm, the 445nm looks purple to me. the color difference, to me, is best noticed in the beam and ambient illumination caused by the laser, rather than the dot. even >4W of 445nm still looks violetish by comparison, so there is no doubt these are higher wavelength. if they really are limited...
I had mine made at a reasonable 1.2A and am getting 1600mW with a g lens, not too shabby. capable of making fire. spikes to 2W when it is first turned on, at least, that's what the LPM says, its one of my brightest units now, due to the WL, even 4.8W of 445nm is just barely brighter
