I think what John is trying to do right now is find out if the
XXXmW Lasers he had bought from suppliers are in fact
what the supplier sold him... now that he has an LPM..
That is an internal PA issue... He will need time to work that
out with his suppliers...
To suggest that he makes $20-$30 profit off a $35.00 Laser
is just ludicrous...
Out of that $35.00 Laser he needs to pay for Packaging... Shipping..
Handling... The Laser... his Overhead and then what's left is Profit...
I really don't think his employees or his staff are paid in rice...:undecided:
I feel that John is honest enough to share his findings with us
as he has already shown...
I know that everyone wants every single Laser tested with a
guarantee of power..... FOR $35.00....
It is fair to say that at the present time an advertised <200mW
532nm Laser for $35.00 will NOT have an IR Filter (as shown on
his Laser descriptions) and that total power will probably be 50%
of that <200mW as a norm...
For gods sake it is a $35.00 mW Laser...
If you want a guaranteed 200mW Laser then I suggest you spend
the big $$$... You always... always get what you pay for...IMO
I made an order for 3 different wavelength 200mW Lasers and if
they are only 50% of the "rated" output.. I'll be a happy camper...
because I know I can't get a guaranteed 200mW Laser for $30-$35
shipped to my door in Canada from China...
I think John could perhaps offer Tested Lasers at a premium price
on a Tested Laser Output Page on his site to offset the extra work
to test them individually... Just a suggestion...
