Hello, I am new to LPF and I wanted advice.

[stevie]

I just ordered one of the 2w lasers from lucklaser.com. Any opinions/reviews? Please and thank you

Hello stevie, welcome to the forums bud!

Would you have a link to the actual lasers if possible?
Thanks.

Actually I am sorry I do not sir, I just ordered it. But its the one that ones that are advertised by the Security Engineers on top of the fourms. Here is a link. Laser Pointers - Announcements in Forum : Companies

EDIT: Sorry lol, I thought you said picture of the laser. thats the link ^^

I don´t get people asking for advice after ordering a product.

Restraint, patience, guess this words are completely foreign words for some people out there.

Not that you haven´t seen this forum before, otherwise you wouldn´t have ordered the laser through the forum advertisement


Don´t think there are reviews of this specific laser around.

You´re welcome to do a review considering following recommendations:

if you don´t have a Laserpowermeter to confirm lase routput, you can look right into this thread:

Check out the first picture. Isn't that Blaster's profile picture? I wonder if they took it from him.

As to reviews, I haven't seen any on this specific laser.

Thank you all

Exactly, that's something I too will never understand.

I will sometimes go through months of research to make sure that my money cannot possibly be spent on a better alternative of the thing that I want, especially if it's a bit larger investment like in lasers or other luxuries.

And yet I see people saying that they've just ordered something, and are now asking for any information and advices on the product.

Here's my advice: Seek advice BEFORE you make a purchase.

The time you spend on research is also an investment. If you research for 4 hours and end up saving $25, you're working for less than minimum wage.

But you gain a lot of information that will save time, effort, and money in the long run (and on your future purchases). Plus, learning about lasers is closer to enjoyment than a job

I do not think you can compare it like that, it's totally different.

If you research for 4 hours and end up saving $1, it's still worth it, because the only possible alternative is not saving anything at all.

You're not doing the research instead of your job so you're not losing anything in return.

In short, it's one of the best ways you can invest your time in.

Besides, what NO4 said. In the long run, it makes one hell of a difference.
