Nice! I see you have gone for all low power lasers. Until I saw the beam shots with fog I wondered where one of your 532nm went. Must be very low power. Thanks for sharing them.

Gold always looks good but besides the housings, which one is your favorite ?

 

[Ears and Eggs]

I generally like the lower powered ones, then I feel I can do more with them without worrying about one little mistake torching my eyes or setting something on fire. Although I find around 100-200mW is often a sweet spot were it's still very bright but not as insanely dangerous as the multi watt ones.


Defiantly the Sanwu 488 is my favourite, that aqua colour never gets old.


Added a couple extra pictures of the Gold Lyra, a few details on the host didn't really show up on the pictures I posted. I would also recommend the Gold Lyra as a great beginner laser too, low powered but a unique host and classic 532nm wavelength. Too many new members going right for the Sanwu Striker 7W as their first laser these days, this would be a better choice.

And my two favourites with the Uranium and Bromine element cubes.

Ahh.....High Quality Very Nice, I didn't realize it was coated in actual 18K gold.

Yes I also like the Sharp 488's, I drive mine @ 250ma - 350ma for about 120mw - 150mw and I prefer the G8 lens for the best far field beam.

I have 4 of them, 3 are pretty much the same but 1 is a freak light blue, the others are that blue/green....aquamarine/teal kind of color, a chameleon really that changes your perception depending on what other laser beam is next to it, for instance if you look ( at night or in a dark area/backdrop ) at a 532nm and a 445nm then the 445 looks blue, but look at a 488 and a 445 and now the 445 looks more violet, proving once again that our brain plays a big role in our visual perception.

p.s. I have found that just the background when looking at a 488nm beam can change my perception of it's hue.
