Hi guys, I got a few extras and thought I'd share the deal..
445nm blue wavelength (444nm measured)
500mW max power output
lasing threshold 200mA
slope 1mW/mA typ.
Emission: 10x45 degrees
Comes with chart plot of operation.

Asking $420

got any idea on rough beam specs and lens required?

cheers

Could we see some pictures of them on if your not too busy? If not don't worry.

Is the colour far from 473? Seems like a good deal considering DPSS 80mW blue's are around $500.

in real life, when being scanner 445 does have a 405 uv look to it. but its alot brighter than 405 but not as bright as 473.

445 is win win, good colour, good power and great modulation

These are a perfect blue color, the peak of your eye sensitivity to blue. Also at 500mW they are incredibly bright. Howver, due to recent events this is no longer for sale.
