Ken,
in the 60's, electronic-equipment's displays were only available in green, in the late 70's & early 80's they tried an ugly orange-red, in the 80's, back to green and finally, the 90's saw the blue LED come of age
I've got to have blue...
;D
However, I'm quite aware that it's
not your fault that the distributor changed specs on you. So I am willing to foot the bill ($10, was it?) - but someone needs to assure me that this ah, "isolator" is not going to be the weak link in the chain...
last thing I need is a dead Kenometer just because Isolators are fickle (and I just had to insist on blue... :
)

I don't care if it's
hot pink as long as the kenometer works and can measure laser output power I'm happy. With such demands you should get a professional LPM.
What's a couple thousand when you can have a blue LCD display? I agree, If the screen is not LCD it's just not worth it. Kenom better work on an LCD display before rangedunits changes his mind again and buys this instead for 2K
Kenom's overpriced competitor[/quote]
Naaa IF your going to drop a few grand and get a professional meter, get this one instead;

and don't forget the sensor too;

Short of going that route, I think you'll be very happy with Ken's build; I don't think there's another hobbyist LPM on the "market" that can touch it. :
