[BobMc]

Hello, my sypder 3 no longer is working, was wondering if anybody new a place that could repair it?

 

[Razako]

Can you explain the problem in more detail?

 

[Razako]

Yeah, a good start would be listing your country so you know which members are nearby.

Let me guess, it's no longer working. :crackup:

Sorry but I couldn't resist, we get this all the time, most Chinese lasers are made with non standard parts and epoxied together such that they are not easily fixable. Hopefully someone knowledgable about that laser will comment here, but not too many here own WL lasers as they do not have a good reputation here.

I live near Los Angeles Ca. I bought it off Ebay a short time ago.(can't return). The laser L.E.D. lights still work so part of it still working, there's just no laser coming out the end. Was hoping to get to get it fixed? Was curious if anybody new a place that repaired them? But if there epoxied together that would make them real tough to take apart. If can't get repaired could anybody recommend a comparable laser that would be a little more dependable? Thanks, I appreciate whatever suggestions you might have.

well i can build you a laser.

Alien laser and ABarnete as well.

Sanwu and jet laser are more expensive but good).

Thanks, I'm looking at getting a set, blue and green, you mentioned you could build me one (or two) would like to talk to you about building a set?

 

[BobMc]

Went to Sanwu and Jet Blue web site, would you know if they will ship their high powered lasers to the U.S.?

If you get a 445nm diode, get the beamexpander, you won't be sorry

 

[BobMc]

Ok, sounds good, but was thinking of the 520nm 1000mw? And you are sure they ship to the U.S., it's a wee bit of money to lose if customs wont let it through?

 

[Razako]

That's an awesome laser. I have one and wrote a review on them. It won't get caught by customs.

Great choice! I'm doing a 520nm build soon

 

[BobMc]

I read somewhere that there's a gentlemen in Ca. that builds lasers,would anybody know this person?

 

[BobMc]

sure i'll send you a pm.

Tried to reply to your pm, but couldn't figure out how. ( new to site) anyways was thinking about a blue and green laser, blue maybe changeable from 1, 2 and 3 watts. green maybe 1 watt ? very dependable!
