I am new to this hobby and pretty much know nothing compared to some of the more experienced users on this forum. So any feedback will be greatly appreciated.
I want to replicate Styropyro’s project that he showcased in his video “100% Invisible IR death ray laser!”.
I already purchased 16W fiber optic laser with power supply and I want to use it to build kind of a IR flash light with beam divergence of approximately 5 inches over 100 yards.
My question is: what type/size/shape lenses do I need to buy to build a collimator that would give me desired beam output? Any recommended vendors?
