DX SD Lasers

[siqueirah]

Hey guys,
it seems that DX finally realised that people also like higher quality lasers (I didn't say high quality) and decided to resell the whole SD Laser family.
For those who don't know, the SD Lasers were 2 50mW overspec lasers (SD301/SD302) DX used to sell among with all those crappy lasers. There are a couple of reviews in the forum and I own one. They aren't high quality lasers, but are way better then the other ones. I think they are very similar to what o-like sells.
Now DX has from SD300 to SD305. The hosts look VERY nice and the prices aren't high. If I hadn't already bought my 50mW I'd give a 100mW model a chance.
I want to hear your opinion.

Does anyone have any real experience with these? Something like DealExtreme: $67.80 SD-300 200mW 532nm Green Laser Pen Pointer with Battery Set (1*18650) looks very attractive, but how much power will it actually produce?

I could bite the bullet for that price, but if someone else already did, i'd rather not

I haven't seen any reviews of these yet. I only have experience with the 50mW model, which seems to be arround 80mW.
The host is also great.

SD-300 Host seems awesome, doesn't it?

I just bit the bullet - it's 70$ for a higher quality one. I'll check it out and give a review once it finally comes in

Great. I sincerely don't know what to expect. The 50mw version was very good for the price. It has an enormous quantity of IR, though.

The question is: is it focusable?

Awesome, dude! I was ogling those for a while now, hoping someone
would order a sample...
Which one exactly did you order?
I'll be looking forward for that review.

Estaremos a esperar ansiosamente pelo review. Aposto que o SD-300 foi o escolhido, me parece ser o melhor host.

We'll be anxiously waiting for the review. I bet the SD-300 was the chosen one, it seems to me that it's the best host.

DealExtreme: $67.80 SD-300 200mW 532nm Green Laser Pen Pointer with Battery Set (1*18650)

This is the one I ordered. I don't like the mini flashlight hosts, I prefer the big ones like torches and I already have one similar to this for parts

I will definitely do a review with as much detail as possible with vids and such.

 

[siqueirah]

The host looks very nice. I hope it's also focusable.

I have one of these and its a decent laser, around 100mW real output.

 

[siqueirah]

Where are the people that ordered these lasers?

 

[enigmahack]

I lost the thread lol

So mine starts at over 100mW with very little IR, and then drops to 55mW within 20 seconds if not sooner...

Not worth the price IMO

 

[siqueirah]

Sure it isn't worth the price, what is a shame 'cause it looked promising =(
I'll wait for other reviews

 

[siqueirah]

Hey guys,
It's me again. I've just managed to sell my beloved SDLaser 301 (50mW) so I have the money to go for the "200mW" ones. What do you think? Should I risk? Is there any better laser I can get with U$60 ?

 

[blue bumblebee]

i think you should go get the 200mw one!
just search around for a bunch of reviews and pics of the laser!
very worth it imo
(the only thing lacking is a review with LPM reading)
