Hi all been too long i still have my 405-445-473-532 i need a yellow any suggestions or deals :can:
Laser glow also won't ship to the US now and CNI said they wont ship to the US even in parts. Damn shame. I think this is why Dragon Lasers has been such arrogant a-holes to deal with regarding 589's. They know they have the US market to themselves. Personally since Adam from DL wont even stand behind his advertised power output for 589's I would never risk my money.
Shoot, sorry Alex you are correct. I was referring to handhelds >5mW.

Well, in theory you could. If you have a relative/contact in say, Canada, you could ship it to them, have them replace the label, pay them for shipping to you, and get all the >5mw lasers you want.Oh haha, gotcha. No problem :beer:
That being said, It sucks we can't get 5mW+ pointers into the US anymore!

On a different note, what I think would be really neat is a pointer/labby combo. Maybe a big heatsink your pointer fits into that extends duty cycle.![]()
Welcome back to LPF!
In terms of yellow not much has changed.
CNI still offers 593.5's up to 20mW and 589's up to 80mW(which a GB just finished on this particular model). If you buy from CNI and you want a 5mW+ version they might not agree to ship, and if they do they will need to ship it in 3 parts to make it past customs.
DragonLasers 589's Spartans are a hit or miss. A lot of members have received good over-spec unit, but 2 have received very poor and well under-spec units so it might a gamble. For $400+ I personally wouldn't take such a risk so if you can look elsewhere.
LaserGlow's Rigel are the same. Except their Rigel-5 has gone up from $400 to $449 so it's not the cheapest option but you shouldn't be anything but pleased with their units!
Pick and choose =)

Okay, it was just an example, although maybe not a very good one. I'm not familiar with laser laws in Canada, but last time I checked (4 years ago) they were less regulated than in the US.If I'm not mistaken Canadians citizens can't purchase >5mw handheld lasers from Laser Glow.

CNI will only ship handhelds >5mW to Canada in parts not complete but won't do the same for the USA.
Probably just higher profile. In other words ship more units than laser glow. CNI is a pretty big company. Everything from 1mW pointers to Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics for astronomy.
Specifically the 556nm or 561nm ones. Not really expecting anything under a few thousand, but I was just interested.since i've been dealing with that company for this group by i'm putting together i have an idea of some prices. Which one?
