Argon Night ---

[Hemlock_Mike]

It's time to fire up those ArIon lasers again............ Don't let them sit idle too long.
Blue is a super color -- enjoy.

Mine struck 5 times before it light up. Power them up.

I've been working on others since I got back. My personal ones haven't been lit since before I went on vacation.

I'm swamped tomorrow. Thursday's the day

Thanks for the reminder.

Peace,

I've had a head sitting here for 3 months, completely unused, with around 10,000 hours on the tube ( in fact it could be 7,000, MFG. in 2003 though ) and god only knows how long it sat before it got to me. I'm really going to need to give you money for that PSU this weekend Dave, can't have this head sitting here any longer. I doubt it'll even start ... may need to give GooeyGus a shout to see if I can borrow his BD-10A Oudin Coil.

488 is just a lovely colour to see

488 is awesome... It's just such a pain to drag out the big laser, even though it is pretty to watch it run.

I just got this little guy to tide me over... solid state 488... freakin' sweet!

It's extra cool 'cause it doesn't get all mad at you when you don't call for a few months..

But it does get mad when the AC isn't on. :thinking:

I usually have one or two around. Working on these is part of my "hobby."

Hey Gooey,

Which version of the Novalux is that? I have worked with 3 different versions and I have not seen that. All of the ones I have seen are totally different designs
