Laser Meet Toronto area

[JLSE]

I wasnt sure if I could make it, but my wife insisted I make em and she plays with them. Shes just not very fond of anything over 100mW unless its outdoors. Most of my attention has been on the greens, so im hard at work to bring my best units. Im trying for 300mW with my last 1watt diode, but 30% efficiency is probably not gonna happen  Im also bringing a couple of handheld DIY's and my 6x BR, which hopefully will be mounted in a rominsen 30 body. I just have to put dr lavas driver together which is a challenge in its own  ;D

This is sounding better with every post. I'll be there for sure, barring heinous cottage country traffic. ("outta my way fool, or feel the sting of my mighty dilda-lazor!" ;D)

Oh, almost forgot, my camera is flattered you called it an slr! Its actually a panasonic with a lyca lens. I DIY'd some optics for it, and can now get some nice macro with it

I really thought we had a few more laser enthusiasts around southern Ontario. I see Chido now lives in the, um... "Twin cities" ( hehehe). And I guess Montreal is a bit far to drive from, even for laser pwn. We'll take some vids for ya, guys...

Yeah, St. Paul to be exact, far away from Ontario.

Myself and Dimitry are trying to make arrangements to show up with some lasers, cameras and other neat things. I'll contact Rolf (Curiously_coherent) directly to confirm later this weekend, but hopefully we can make it to the meet and then head down to the lakeshore to cause a bit of a scene during the Victoria Day fireworks here in Toronto.

If you see any stories in the paper about a plague of high powered lasers during the fireworks, that's probably just us.

Dang, I could have sworn I read you lived in Ottawa back in the "Lasers in snow" thread... My bad. Still would have been a long drive. My "Twin cities" comment was because I thought you meant Ottawa-Hull... Which really would have been funny. ;D

Happy to report, one of my DIY labby's hit 300mW on 3 aaa batts, IR filtered measured with my lasercheck! Now I am definately exited!

Is there a no wife policy in effect for this meet? She's kinda hinting that she wants to come with.
