What is this? I mean, it is a DNA sequencer....any relation to lasers?

There's a JDSU multi-line argon laser head and matched PSU inside, the PSU is 220v, there are also some cool optics and stuff. Two friends of mine have both gotten two of these and all four have been >120mW average on all lines. Bryce007 sold his, from the same type of sequencer to pontiacg5, it did/does ~120mW all lines too. These are a great deal, the head alone is ~$12,000 new I believe.

It is worth a few hours drive time. You will need to bring a truck and some strong friends. IIRC, the whole unit weighs in at ~300 pounds!

If my searching is right, these are the threads on the one bryce007 had:

Multiline Argon for $100 - Phoenix AZ
FS: JDSU Uniphase Multiline argon with PSU and controller.

Looks like the completed laser sold for $300; though given the fact it sold in one minute makes me think he could have pushed it for a bit more.

Not quite worth 14 hours in a car for me, but does look like a pretty good deal.

Another deal I can't have.

This one has been on a diet it seems.

Pallet shipping weight is approximately 198 lbs

If that was obvious, I apologize, I'm still learnin' and I probably will be for the rest of my life

I think that the "obvious" part was that "I" posted it on a laser forum The answer to the question "Any relation to lasers?" is a bit obvious.

Now maybe the question "What laser is hidden inside" would have been OK

Also, simply searching "DNA sequencer" in the forum would have returned you several threads about these ( I and some others have posted when one of these become available) including this one

NEVER stop learning

Very good point. I guess it was quite obvious it had to do with lasers. I'll make sure and use google/LPF search first here on out.
