Best 473nm Buy?

[hwang21]

How about from CNI without a group buy?

 

[IsaacT]

5/10mW CNI PGL-III-C is 270
20/30mW is 375
50mW is 450

 

[hwang21]

$450 for a 50mW 473nm CNI? I guess that's not too terribly overpriced...

473's from Optotronics start at 500 dollars

RPLB-10-Laser US $519.00
RPLB-30-Laser US $998.00
RPLB-15-Laser US $629.00
RPLB-20-Laser US $748.00
RPLB-25-Laser US $898.00
RPLB-30-Laser US $998.00

RPLB-80-Laser :tinfoil:


Wanted the laser the laser for every price.
Beam quality is so much better than with my former Aquarius-50.

Guess no chance of finding one under 100€ for the next time being?

Nope.

I was able to get my PL473nm 30mw from Offroads 2nd GB for 395 dollars. I saw the price was the same in the third one that just ended. Laserbtb sells it on their website for 518.10
My laser LPM'ed at stayed at approx 47mw and peaked at 51mw. It is one of my favorite lasers

 

[hwang21]

Nice :beer: it really makes you step back and see just how cheap JL's 473nm's are

 

[DJNY]

Yeah there are definitely cheaper alternatives than going with the RPL-B from Optotronics
But the host and divergence are just unique, even more with mirror polish on it

 

[hwang21]

Point taken I wish I could scrape up enough money for a LG or Opto before I get too impatient

 

[DJNY]

Don´t rush when buying an exclusive laser.

I might sell my RPL-B later this month, including two Melles Griot beam expanders.
