Haha, well thats 40 bucks extra to go towards lasers. What colour do you think i should build my next laser (currently building a 405nm) but nothing that is over 500mw because my parents are not ready for that much lasing power i think. I was thinking maybe a 635nm 500mw Mitsubishi diode or a 200mw green. I guess i could get a m140 and set it too about 600-700ma which would put it about 500mw, im just guessing. But i dont really want to buy it when i know i can triple the output and still have a healthy long lasting diode. I want something with a bit of brightness for night time because 100mw of 405nm isnt the best. I am gonna slowly build my parents up to 2W. I just need to show them that they can trust me 100% with lasers. They are like guns, they are only harmful if you use it inappropriately (btw getting a catagory a & b license soon, so yeepee im getting a 308 )
Wait what!?, you can get a category a & b liscence but not a 2W Laser. Its the complete opposite for me, I had wanted to get that for quite some time but decided to get in to lasers for legal reasons lol.
I am going to be building a C6 with this module https://www.fasttech.com/products/1083000 (coupon code BLF)
Check out Blords review http://laserpointerforums.com/f52/mini-review-50mw-green-module-fasttech-80522.html
Then after that one I'm going to do a few different LPC-826 builds to try and get better at soldering
You would want a green laser for sky pointing
