Headed for 2K online?

[ElektroFreak]

2 000 is not much, i saw forums with 200 000 people online.

For a laser forum, 2,000+ is pretty sweet.. We're easily the largest laser-related forum around.

Well, at least it isn't just continuing to climb. That may mean that the counter wasn't screwy.

It appears to have peaked this morning above 3900. Now it is back "down" to ~3700.

Peace,
dave

LOL! Those were the days when I could have the latest post in every board!

EDIT: 2702 now, now are we going for 3K??

That was when everybody had their "SenKat" or "GB" diodes, remember when we couldn't push those much past 200mA without early death? I remember when Kenom posted that he got 250mW out of one and everybody was amazed . I think all we talked about then was how good Nova Lasers were and how bad NewWish lasers were. I also remember the first 5mW blu-ray build by Daedal...this hobby has changed a lot since this forum has grown.

As well as people bought whole PS3's and ripped them for the diodes! LOL!

I bought my first SenKat diode in 2007, blew it up like 5 seconds after receiving it!

If you all haven't heard yesterday's record topped at 3975. It was because of Pseudolobster posting FireMyLaser's homemade laser spiro video. It was featured on hackaday.com. I read that there were 2000 people in the multimedia section alone! Way to go!

Thanks. I edited it too. For some reason I thought it was someone else before I posted in these threads.

You know, I actually came here to ask if the DX 30 was a good deal. Back then there was only ONE thread about it and nothing else... <--- One of the reasons the FAQ was made
