No, but I will probably order some of the ones mentioned in this thread.
The reason I want the oems, is I'm going to be up close and personal with class IV's in my projector. I have already lost the sight in one eye (not laser related) so cannot put a value on the vision in the other. Spending a coupla hundred on good quality laser glasses for that work, makes sense to me.
I somehow doubt cheapies will handle 2 watts+ at 532,445 and 637 all at once.
For pointers (of which I have none at the moment), the ones in this thread seem fine to me, and when I get the urge, i tend to burn from a distance anyway. (5ft-40ft - yes I burned a hole in a leaf with my 445 up the top of a tree. We saw the reflection in the canopy then saw the beam pass right through. Focusing is critical!). I did cheat here. I used a tripod to hold the laser
I wont have such luxury with the projector, but I will have 2 other aces: good goggles, and the ability to crank the lasers down to low power during alignment
