Wicked Lasers old style 150mW Photonic Disruptor.
It 'a long time that I search for it, if one day you want to sell it, please let me know :)

You misunderstand ;)
I don't own it.....yet, but I want one. Not quite ready to start my search though.

Dang I'm a little closer to Yobresal, i've spent around 6k-7k.. Kinda ridiculous when you think about it..

But hey its better than spending all your money on drugs like a lot of people do. We actually have something to show for it. I'm starting to save up for a multi-watt projector, may be a while though those bad boys get expensive quick.

I'm over a few thousand, but if you visit PL'ers, they drop $1000 without blinking an eye. Lots more money circulating on that forum and in the projectors!

There was a thread a couple years ago like this, I thought I had spent a lot on tools (LPM's etc), some of the guys on here have $1000's in tools also.

It's not bad over a lot of years though.

Not easy but not impossible.
I've seen three for sale over the past two years :undecided:
I just really like the host.


I was looking for the Wicked Sonar II FOR YEARS
Wicked Lasers Sonar II Burner Blu-ray Laser Pointer review - Peripheral - Trusted Reviews

Now I got one and gonna put in a 12x or 660nm :)

Wasn't WL selling those for ridiculous prices a couple years ago? Like over a thousand?
Maybe that was a 473nm model? Or were they always 405nm's?
:cool: that you got one! Excellent host.

Fair to say that if most of my friends or family knew how much I actually spent on lasers, they would decide I'm insane.

I generally don't tell them prices, just say it's expensive, but not very, and leave it at that.

I usually lie about prices at first but once they see how amazing it is (if they see how amazing it is lol) I tell them the real price

Yup, I do that too.

In some cases I also lie to jackasses and say a cheaper laser is 2-10x the price, because they seem to stupid to handle lasers:eg:
