Laser_Ben... don't you have a 60W 532nm laser?
Those kinds of powers are only obtainable from a lamp-pumped q-switched system. If yo pulse at 25 kHz, let's say, then the effect will be an unbroken beam to the eye. The beam would have to be moving extremely fast for you to notice the pulsed nature of the beam. The 325W output is the average output, each pulse is many hundreds of kilowatts in that Mamba. And yes, even looking at the diffuse spot at close range on either of these systems is very dangerous and can cause damage, to say nothing of a direct hit.
To do outdoor beam shows requires a lot of power, and if you really want to take 30,000-150,000 people's breath away, a Laserscope (or clone) is the way to go. I would think that the Mamba would be overkill even then. I imagine it is intended for industrial use.
Really? Wow.. that's a serious DPSS right there.. I stand corrected.The Mamba is a diode pumped system
