Another review of the Spyder Arctic G2 445nm Blue Laser (this one to be destroyed!)

[Tech_Junkie]

wicked is known by removing all 'fails' about their products and leaving just the 'wins'. Thats what I'm talking about..

I just explained it to you. That is exactly what happened here. WL didnt want videos of a failed popcorn stunt on the web. Thats why they asked him to remove the videos.

Get it now? :yh:

 

[Leodahsan]

Oh well, get it.
It will not be easy to remove their videos/fails from the internetz. The OP didn't remove the fail popcorn pic, and your sig: "32 reasons not to buy a WL arctic". :beer:
I just questioned the reviewer reasons to remove the videos, because steve don't look like a boss or something like that. I would not remove, fails are fails. understand? :beer:

 

[Tech_Junkie]

Steve is the owner of WL, and just as you said, they delete any negatives. He has lied to so many people here, I'm amazed they dont ban him.

My "32 Reasons" has gotten almost 11,000 views. I'm surprised Steve hasnt offered me a bribe to stop ragging on his lame company. I must have lost him thousands by now. :eg:

 

[Leodahsan]

Id take the bribe and order an spartan. :crackup:
oh and keep updating the thread.

oh well, maybe the OP was bribed to removed the videos then? :yabbem:

 

[Tech_Junkie]

He got the laser for free. :shhh:

I don't think a company should be allowed to censor the content of a review.
Thumbs down.

Thumbs down.

I agree, Even if it's a free Unit, a Review is meant to have all the things you tested and can't be "censored"

 

[Leodahsan]

I'm not a english speaker, so that was hard to me to write here.

Thanks RA_pierce. Thats what I mean't.

 

[Tech_Junkie]

Its not a review, its an ad. Reviews have facts, not edited content, nor misleading information.

LED is turning into this guy. LOL

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

He got Reincarnated into a apparition doing Laser Sell Ads NOOOOOOO:crackup:


EDIT: Question.. in this sentence

The lenses, windows, and holographic optics you'll receive when you order the "Expanded Lens Set" are now labelled as to their function.
From left to right in this photograph:

Is that correct to call them holographic optics?

They are holographic optics; I simply do not know what else to call them. :-/

It's beginning to feel as though I've worn out my welcome on this BBS...perhaps I should just quietly vanish (and remove this website from the "Tab Favourites" in my browser) after tomorrow morning's update to the OP with a second long-term test chart.

I mean...cummon...Tech_Junkie comparing me with that dead snake oil salesman is not a very nice thing to do -- not to ANYBODY.

{yes, I'm rather pissed off!!!}

 

[The_LED_Museum]

Its not a review, its an ad. Reviews have facts, not edited content, nor misleading information.

What do you consider "misleading information" anyway?

I have edited content on some of my other evaluations as well -- but in those cases, it was threats of legal action, not because a president of a compay asked me. But no information I publish or post in ***ANY*** of my evaluations contains any knowingly-misleading content.

 

[danefex]

I have such a hard time reading how LEDs reviews are worded out, so detailed yet so ridiculous.... sorry

 

[scopeguy20]

Popcorn vid w/b a waste of time and boring, TJ I feel there is good info. here and I have always felt this way about the LED Museum write-ups! Please don't spoil a good resource. T/Y! -Glenn

 

[Tech_Junkie]

(est. ~1.0 watt!!!) at maximum power.

^^ This is misleading. By all our est the the Arctic is ~700-800mW.

If you want to review high powered lasers than get a meter. Any info obtained is almost useless without a power reading to compare too. They dont cost that much anymore. Even if you couldnt afford it, make the effort to send it to someone who does have a meter.

Please don't mistake the personal opinion of one member for that of the whole community.
Just put him on your ignore list.

I for one find invaluable information inside your reviews.
Where else do we get to see spectrographic analysis on a regular basis?

So LED's power meter only works for low powered lasers, so what?

(est. ~1.0 watt!!!) at maximum power.

(est. ~1.0 watt!!!)

est.!!

Any info obtained is almost useless without a power reading to compare too.

There are lots of things to be said about a laser besides it's power....
