Hello all.
This is Philip (I'm new here).
I'm 32, I live in Alaska, I'm currently at work in Prudhoe Bay. The internet (here at work) is lousy (to say the least).
I have been having a difficult time trying to find the right thread to ask this in, so I just made this one instead.
I've spent the last few days (attempting) to research blue lasers and trying to decide which one to buy. I am currently stuck between JetLasers PL-E pro 1.7W 462nm or their 2W 445nm.
Here are their respective links:
PL-E pro 1w 2w blue laser 462nm, buy 462nm 2w blue laser pointer, portable 445nm 462nm laser, jetlasers pl-e pro 462nm
500mW PL-E Pro 445nm blue Laser
Anyways, my question that I've been trying to get actual knowledgeable opinions on (because I, obviously, do not know what I'm talking about! lol) is this: Do you guys know if there would be a noticeable difference between these two lasers burning ability if I were to say, pop balloons with them from across the room? This will be my first >5mW laser and I do not want to regret the purchase.
I will say, the 462nm seems to look remarkably cooler than the 445nm. If both lasers I'm inquiring about were the same wattage, it'd be a no brainer for me to choose the 462nm. However, the 445nm having .3 more watts is making me second guess which one would be a better burner.
Please feel free to have a laugh at my expense with regards to my ignorance, just so long as you help me make up my mind! lol
(Both lasers seem to be identical except for the nm and w.)
