500mW 808nm Laser vs. Electrical Tape

[EricJ2190]

Here is a video I made of a >500mW near-IR laser from psuedonomen137 smoking and cutting electrical tape.

So for the 808nm... did you just take the crystal off a greenie?

Nice video.

No, I bought it from psuedo.

Greenie is ~532 so the IR would pretty obviously be 1064nm had he done that...

green lasers do 808nm -> 1064nm -> 532nm so yes, it is possible to take the MCA off a greenie and get an 808nm laser
