C0[sub]2[/sub] lasers own!!

That's 'CO[sub]2[/sub]'. It is the letter 'O' not the number '0'. Geez...

Your experience with lasers doesn't seem to extend to proper research and aptitude.

Where does it get the c02 from?

OH!!! Are there any other laser tubes for sale that work like a c02 laser?

Right... i can't find any places where i can get these laser tubes. Which ones are more powerful? They don't sell anything but c02 on ebay.

Well, c02 lasers are WAY to expensive. And i can't find an argon over 30mW.

Ok, c02 it is!

I have made a TEA laser before. I am actually pretty experienced with most lasers, but i have questions occasionally.

C02 lasers own!!

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. :


Dude, it's carbon dioxide. CO[sub]2[/sub] The C stands for carbon, the O stands for oxygen. The [sub]2[/sub] means 2 oxygen atoms.The carbon doesn't have a small number so it means 1 carbon atom, so what all of that means is that 1 carbon atom + 2 oxygen atoms form 1 molecule of carbon dioxide (see carbon(1) di-oxide(2) )  : O=C=O (no that is not "equal" it's a double covalent bond )

Yes... I know my periodic table of elements. It was a mistake, i knew the carbon dioxide is 1 unit of carbon and 2 units of oxygen.
