40watt green - laserscope

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.
20W would still be way WAY beyond any greenie any of us have owned ::) We should get that guy to join here ;D
 
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!)?

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


I've heard of 532nm in excess of 90W used in laser projection and I'm sure there's been much more than that. The laserscope ktp has been adapted for lasershow purposes in the past, but its quite difficult. You need BIG mirrors - so therefore, slow projection - good for a beam show perhaps, but not projection. The beam specs of a laserscope ktp really are far from lasershow quality.
 
u dont realy need big mirrors

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

Yep, but that would only end up sending the divergence skyrocketing. Might as well just wave around a bright green flashlight at that point ;)

yea but i did not mean telescope in the normal sence of the word ;) else it would be a 40 watt green torch ;)
there are special lens assemblies to bring the beam size down for the laserscope for some reason there refered to as telescopes no idea why

I have seen what a 25w, 1064nm YAG-laser can do. It set a white paper on fire in seconds while scanning large letters!

With many many watts of green does it really matter if the specs are bad? I expect them to be bad the whole way, but does it really matter with that much beam?
Wouldn't expect anything but a beamshow though, just set things on fire otherwise.

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. :P

how did you get this?
You already posted a similar question that was answered
Nobody has one yet. This is just info.

So assuming that you don't mean the same thing, how did who get what? :-?

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. :D 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!" :D The possibilities are endless.You can even make a more efficient laser popcorn machine than the 3x16x diode one :D
I wonder what is the yag being pumped with though :-/

ever heard of "moon-vertising"?

LOL, if someone pointed this at a police chopper, the SWAT team would be at their house in no time ;D ;D ;D

ahhh, imagine... popping the balloons in your neighbors birthday party from a mile or so away...
 
Yea but if you pointed this ata police hellicopter you might actually have a good chance of bringing it down ::)
