589nm (yellow) laser

[Wolfman29]

I think you mentioned "those two guys who got the yellows from CNI, one was 100mW the other was 80mW". That was RHD and I. While I advise buying directly from CNI (that's what I did), take note of what the others have said: you are not guaranteed long life, overpower, or anything when you buy from them. It's a risk, but it's high-paying risk: you get the laser for cheaper and you can come out WAY ahead.

All that said, if you want something in the upper half of the two-digit powers, expect to pay >$500 for your laser, if not more. I know I paid significantly more than that.
