Yup, the RPL-300 I bought just to sell is now up for sale 
Here's what you get:
- RPL-300
- 2x batts
- charger
- WL LaserShades (safety! this is a serious laser!)
- case
- little screwdriver to adjust the power, since it is an adjustable RPL model
Here's the pic of it all:
Performance? Well, I have a power meter, so you get a graph Here is a graph of the lasers output with a fresh charge on one of the batts it comes with:
Quickly reaches around 290mW and as it warms up slowly climbs to peak at around 325mW. Average sits around 310-320mW.
Other performance notes:
RPLs automatically switch themselves off when they heat up, so that is their duty cycle. This laser has a very variable duty cycle. Stays on for about a minute in a warm room being held by a warm hand. Stays on nearly indefinitely outside on a cool night, so it depends on the ambient temperature.
Also, worth noting that the divergence is a little wider than a new RPL. Not by much, my estimations of this laser are 1.5-2mRad.
Cosmetically the laser is in good (not excellent) condition. No real scratches or anything, it just has an 'old' kind of feel to it. But you can ascertain that from the pics!
Also, you can see just here past the shutter cap that the paint has started to weather down a bit. Not very noticable, but it's something for the buyer to consider. Also, the flash on my camera has over exaggerated the marks on the front of the laser. Really they are barely visible except under direct light at close range:
Obligatory beam pic!
Worth noting that pic was taken directly under a fluorescent light. The real beam is much more visible, my camera doesn't like beam pics
Price? AUD $800 to start.
Since a lot of interest has been shown in this laser, I'll be taking the highest reasonable offer from AUD$800. I say reasonable, because I'll feel guilty selling this laser for $2000+ or something crazy If you're offering around the $1000 mark I'll say sold, but let's see what happens.
btw, AUD$800 ~= USD$760. Go to Google for a more accurate currency conversion
