FEELER: Direct Green 50mw 515nm laser diodes

[AnthoT]

I wonder if a 505nm low-ball would be more expensive or less O__O .

i would think less... only because these are suppose to be for green applications so a cyan would not be suitable

It's ahead of 488nm, however I'm still waiting for <$120 if I do buy

hopefully theill be at that price in the next 3 years

More expenses :/

Shipping is 120$ for them to me so that's an extra 6$ per person if we hit 20, oh and if anyone's interested at 10 of them for 485$ or who wants 25mw version for 4400$ :crackup:

So I asked wether they have low wavelengh ones at discount so I'm
Waiting
I think if we hit 30 it will be around 220-290 i have to ask

Also, I just got a reply about lower wavelengh ones, they don't have any, they are all 515nm and 300$ is the best price, he said its usually 1200$ but he's giving us a deal, so if we hit 20 this can happen, or 10 but at a price of 485$ so let's aim for 20 :beer:

This is likely the only chance at this price for a long time...


I just got a very very sad email,

Anthony,

Apparently delivery*is*going to be an issue. We have 120 of the 510nm laser and over 100 are dedicated to orders.*Due to the high demand for this laser and a Laser Focus Webinar we are sponsoring today we expect a high demand for this laser.*The manufacturer is not going to have their next run available until August.

Best regards,

Sorry guys...

Can't we claim that last 20 in stock? I mean you did find them before the little web show they have

Damn! 300$! I don't have so many to spend

I can't... Because note he said above 100 have been claimed & the rest is just going to others... I'm sorry everyone, hopefully in the fall they go down in price at least other than that I'm sorry, these are hard to track down I'll keep looking :beer:

If you find 488nm diodes I'm in at any price!

Any price you say
Thorlabs.com - LP488-SF20 488 nm, 20 mW, B Pin Code, SM Fiber-Pigtailed Laser Diode, FC/PC

:crackup:

 

[Blord]

I think he means any price between $50,00 and $50,01

 

[AnthoT]

Yea eytyxhs you can get a super deal on a 25mw 515nm diode, it's 4400$!! guess what the deal is, it's pressed in a module

 

[eytyxhs]

I think he means any price between $50,00 and $50,01

Naaahh, between 50$ -50,02$

 

[AnthoT]

I emailed the manufacturer to say if they had ANY left for them to give them too us hopefully there's a few

 

[Super Critical]

Are these 510nm or 515nm?

 

[Elektrotechniker]

$300 you say? that's still pretty high and unreal. I wouldn't put my hands on those pins to solder any wire for what they are worth...

Me neither... :shhh:

Well this can't happen at the moment anyway but I'll try again in August, these are 515nm according to the supplier,

They are expensive but lots of people are interested in them, I myself wouldn't even buy one, I'd just organize a GB for those who want, anyways I'll come back to this thread in August with more info :beer:

 

[eytyxhs]

I hope to be <100$! :beer:
