500mW+ Focusable Green Laser (Pointer/Lab Module)

It's sky not soky lol. Jetlasers or skylasers are both good options.

Still don't know who to buy from

It would make sense to me to just get with JETLASERS China.

Shipping would be local and so cheaper..

I think you should forget the idea of converting a lab into a portable.
I get the feeling you want a laser than can run non-stop- which lab laser can do but not very likely as a portable. With shipping battery and charger you may find a JETLASER that makes more than 300mW- which is very close in brightness to a 500mW- but I would highly suggest using a duty/ rest cycle for the health of the laser-- To be on the safe side around 5 min duty and the same as rest- if you are in a cold time of the year you could use it longer or if the temperature is high then maybe a short time would be wise.
Hope this has be of help to you.

but what about CNI tho?
How does CNI stack up against Jet Laser?

You should talk to Laser Pointers - View Profile: Thejoker301
and look at SFPL-400 532nm Green.
Here is a test of the laser http://laserpointerforums.com/f45/r...00-550mw-532nm-green-627mw-re-test-82182.html

They are very good priced compared to power, but divergence isn´t the greatest with these.

I know his supplier, ordered lasers before from him.

Speaking of divergence.
What's a good divergence for a laser?
Cos so far what I've seen on 500mW+ lasers , the divergence just ranges from 1.5mrad to 2.5.
Is that good ..or
