FOR SALE 532nm GOGGLES (SOLD)

Re: FOR SALE 532nm GOGGLES

@ mfo, isn't that the purpose of goggles, to avoid eye contact from accidental reflections ? I think the ONLY glasses that will allow a direct hit would be opaque. Like you've said, use common sense, & you'll be OK !!!! PS, They told me an O.D. Rating of >3, IDK ? How long ago did YOU ask ? Maybe they've improved them ?!?!?!?........ROB BTW, THESE HAVE BEEN SOLD!!!!

OD2 will protect you from a hit up to 500mW as long as your blink reflex works in the right amount of time. A direct hit of 500mW through OD 2 goggles will mean 5mW into your eye.

You are referring to these, right?

I emailed them about two weeks ago I would say? I wonder why the inconsistency from wicked lasers...

In theory, yes you're 100% correct. However these goggles aren't certified so who's to say how accurate that number really is?

Yep they look just like those. Wish I'd saved that Email. Maybe whomever hit the wrong key, IDK. Evidently, O.D. 2 or 3 will do the job OK so long as you use your head!!! rob

Exactly. Even if I had OD 10 goggles, I'd still be super careful. You only get one pair of eyes.

pheonix- I'm disappointed now. You offered them to me first then do this? Come on this isnt cool.

I just feel a little let down- I even was going to take the laser too.

Re: FOR SALE 532nm GOGGLES

SMIDSY, I sent you a PM when I got the goggles, & got NO REPLY from you. I even waited & then dropped the price. STILL NO RESPONSE from you. I'm sorry SMIDSY, but you can't hold ME responsible if you don't read your PM's & follow THREADS, can you ?
Again, I'm sorry, SMIDSY....................rob

Re: FOR SALE 532nm GOGGLES

OK we've talked it over- something is wrong with my PMs- didnt get them- and didnt spot this thread.

No worried either way- I just didn't see a PM or spot this thread hence my reaction

No hard feelings mate!
