Hello guys!
There are loads of different laser lenses that anyone can purchase, each has different characteristics for the output, divergence and etc.
I have heard a reputation and seen that G8 lenses tend to sit far away from the diode to make the laser beam tight (unfocused), and for focusing/burning you turn the lens anti-clockwise which will make it sit even further away from the laser diode.
My question is that is it also the same for G2 and 3E lenses, or do they sit closer to the diode for making the laser dot as small as possible for long distances?
Thanks
