Got my new green module!

[Things]

Well, Dave from LSP is a fucken awesome guy. I got a new green module tested @ 180mw!!!

This thing is a beast. It started to burn my silver coated computer subwoofer box!

This thing has a tiny footprint on the head itself. The PSU is kinda large, but its not very deep, which is good!

I don't have any beam shots as of yet (Camera is totally useless at them without fog), but I can clearly see the dot on the clouds, and mountain behind my house!!

I may get some more pix if the camera decides to play along.

The CNI turned out to be a dud, and is wayy underpowered. Take a look at this pic, and you may see why

Thats the c-mount pump diode. looks nice and toasty!

The CNI is being sent to BlueFusion, he is gonna have a crack at getting it going again, though with this new module i'm not too worried!

And here it is ....

The head is TINY!!!!

BTW, the little silver PSU is just being used as a terminal strip for the mains, I have put a proper plgu on the power supply now ...

how come you decided to go with cni when you are a laser wave distributor?

find a great deal?


the driver is huge! does it have a psu built in?

i just ordered a 100mw green too quite a lot of punch!!

i love green!

 

[Things]

Yes, I got the laser for a "discount". Can't really say much more than that sorry

Yeah the PSU is built into the black box, I just wired a power cord directly into it for now.

I believe the new head is a "lasercentury" (spelling may be wrong).

Is this the LW series? beam shots please, no photo trickery! ;D

 

[Things]

Its one of these http://www.lasercentury.com/product.asp?id=3

My power supply doesnt have a fan, but I just added one cause I could  

I'll try grab some beam shots with this and my open can red tonight. I need my 600mw red module now! This open can is no match for brightness with this guy!  

EDIT: Forgot to mention, one of the mirrors came off on my galvo' No damage done to the mirror or galvo's its just annoying. I need to grab some epoxy and glue it back on, so its only beam shots for now unfortunately  

EDIT: Bah my camera is flat, so now I need to try find the charger. lol what a pain.

Price????mmmmmmm looks very nice

 

[Things]

I dunno what they sell for these days. Lets just say, Dave had one as old stock he needed to get rid of, and wanted to make up for the faulty CNI.

LW series is going for 275 Au$ which is really not too bad

Heres some beam shots. No PS or long exposures, all straight from the camera! No fog either (Couldn't find my fog machine remote lol)

I dont need no fog for beam shots

Will get alot more one my scanner is going again, which may even be tommorow if the mirror can actually hold itself in.

 

[FokoF]

blury.... ... put your drink down! looks great.. nice and powerful!

 

[thesk8nmidget]

yummy! what do you mean by your mirror holding itself in?

i'll race you for some action shots! i should have mine done tonight!

The mirror on my Y galvo came loose from the glue. Its not broken though, which is good. What I meant, is that the leftover glue on the galvo, is enough to hold the mirror in, even while its in action. i am gonna grab some epoxy and glue it back one day, but for home it works OK.
