It's $184 there because of all the accessories included. Take them all out and you get the $90 base price. :)

Oh good, im not stupid or crazy! (yeah cause this one event can clear that up) That makes sense. I was just about to ask if he was shipping everything with the accesories becuase that would definitely not help shipping costs XD

I wouldn't keep bothering him regarding a larger discount guys. (Taking into account the 15% discount) <$300 for 1.5W of 532 is amazing! :)

I'm curious to see these things.. Is anyone getting the 2 watt?

Not that I know of. They order the components for the 2 watt on a per-purchase basis.

I think people are more interested in the 1.5 watt because you get much more for your money. Also, the 2 watts are not even built until their bought. Hopefully someone will buy the 2 watt so we can see beamshots :)

Yeah I don't blame people for not wanting to drop that kinda money for few hundred more mw.... But maybe the 2 watt is overspec too and reads like 2.3watts

Even then, it's a 27% increase in power for a ~300% increase in cost.

I wouldn't count on it. Remember, the 1.5W gets very close to 2 watts anyways!

Exactly Sta--very close

Brightness is perception not output power.
Human perception isn't logarithmic. You need 4 times the power to perceive double the brightness under identical atmospheric conditions --There is no beam in a vacuum. Seeing a beam at all depends completely upon atmospheric conditions (the "beam" that you can actually see, in reality, is the part of the light reflected from dust, mist and other particles in the air, not the beam itself).


2000mW will not be much brighter than a 1500Mw of 532 under the same atmospheric conditions. About 15% brighter( √1.33)

Percent brightness increase ≈ √(P2/P1)×100
2000/1500= 1.33 √1.33=1.153 X100 = 115.3% or 15.3% brighter than a 1500mW of 532nm

15% will be a good discount. Anybody planning to bite the bullet and immediately buy the 1.5W when it's available for testing?

I plan on buying a 1.5W whenever they're available and the discount goes live. 1.5W of 532nm is simply unreal for that price.

Cool. Depending upon when it's available, I might wait for some metering and mode checking.
