20W would still be way WAY beyond any greenie any of us have owned : We should get that guy to join here ;DBlueFusion said:Nobody has one yet. This is just info.
And yes, the flashlamp and rod are refrigerated with the same system as in a fridge, using proper freon coolant and all I think.
But hey at that power would it even matter if it was pulsed? I'd just run it 50% power CW rather than 100% pulsed.
BlueFusion said:Wow. Just imagine, if you had a few grand to invest, you could rig up a 20k scanner system with some big mirrors and make a SICK beamshow. You could probably see it from space!!1
Definitely from miles away. I've heard of 20 watts in some big shows but never 40.
I'm sure you could make the money back with a beam show like no other. Literally.
Come to think of it, there are some second hand on ebay that SUGGEST conversion for laser shows. And $6000 seems to be the cheapest they get.
So when I've saved up for a good few years I have the option of getting a second hand car or the most powerful laser scanner in the country if not the world.
Hmm... No contest there. And I'm not kidding either. I would get the laser... and a cheaper car to shift the thing around in XD

there are telescopes u can put on the laserscope to bring the beam width down

I have seen what a 25w, 1064nm YAG-laser can do. It set a white paper on fire in seconds while scanning large letters!Schrecken_Licht said:It's a wonder it didn't burn a hole in his wall! At that power it shouldn't matter if the surface is white or not.

Just look at 2:10 when he says "BAM!" and then at 2:13 when he turns it back down again right before the camera adjusts the brightness to really see the difference between 1-2W and >35W.Schrecken_Licht said:It's a wonder it didn't burn a hole in his wall! At that power it shouldn't matter if the surface is white or not. However, it's odd that you don't see a solid beam until the pliers start smoking.....even my modest 95mw greenie has a visible beam in a lit room at night. Obviously the laser is putting out close to 40 watts but it seems like it should be brighter...like so bright all the camera could record is an overwhelming green glow everywhere that washes everything out.
Anyone ever see a green laser in this power range in person up close? Does it look like this or is it much brighter (if you dared look around without goggles!)?
You already posted a similar question that was answeredglona said:how did you get this?

Switch said:No doubt it would be very visible on the clouds.LOL, I think you would need to get some sort of permission to fire that thing up. You could do a hell of an advertisement for someone, just write on the clouds "Come here for whatever" LOL ;D I wonder if you could get a guiness entry for the most powerfull scanner... Or it would be cool to put that in your yard , hooked to a computer and motion detectors.And when a burglar gets caught by the motion sensors a recording would say "Halt! You have been targeted by the most powerful lazor alarm system, surrender or be burnt!" The possibilities are endless.You can even make a more efficient laser popcorn machine than the 3x16x diode one
I wonder what is the yag being pumped with though :-/
Switch said:Yea but if you pointed this ata police hellicopter you might actually have a good chance of bringing it down :
