Laser safety glasses don't work?

Jav, not sure how long until I get them. We are stil talking about how many units they are sending me to test. They have 405-532 and then ones to cover the red side. I'm more interested in the red since there is a lack of quality glasses for red but I will test the blue ones too. If they work well you can come get them. Not sure if I'm having to pay for the ones I test but if they are free then ill give you them :beer:

How long until you get them? And what WL does the supplier have? Looking for a set of 3 for me and mine against 445.

Have not found any cheap protection from red that I trust but for 445nm I picked up some UVEX S0360X goggles for under $10 as my back ups/friend protectors. Not a lick of 445 passes thru the two pairs I have. I trust them.

Check out this thread for some test results:

That sounds great! If they work I'd be willing to pay if they charge you. I'm all about supporting lesser know small businesses as long as the quality is up to par.

Read through the whole thread and if the ones Livinloud tests turn out to be crap this looks like a great set! Thanks for the link!

Jav, i have those as backups as well. Test them prior to using them since they are not certified; they can change the formula at anytime and then become useless to lasers

Keep in mind that just because one batch the worker dumped 0.4% of dye into the plastic mix, doesn't mean that next time he might only dump 0.39%, or he might go over and dump 0.45%. Random numbers, but you get the picture.

The true wisdom is what you say, test your own goggles when you get them. Use other members' tests to weigh your risk before buying. If one member reviews goggles that work, they may work for you. If two members review goggles from the same batch, that makes it more likely you'll get an acceptable set too.
