Measure mW without a meter?

[lasersbee]

That's cool, I'd have to go back and dig it up; bought it, tried it; dumped it into the useless pile somewhere.

Hey would that be transferable? as I won't mind giving it to someone that can use it, so could they then trade it in?

I've got too many meters now I'm no longer using.

BTW... I just had a thought.... Rather than have them collect dust........

For all those many meters you're no longer using... why don't you sell or give them away
to the many LPF members that would really appreciate a Laser Power Meter even if you think
they are no longer good enough since you got your LabMax.
I'm sure they are good enough for the laser hobbyist on LPF... What do you think....

OK then, anybody want to pay the shipping on this and what ever else may/may not be required?
I would guess since I really have no other info on this, you'll have to pay shipping to Canada and maybe return shipping back to the States?  IF anybody wants to do this, the unit is yours Gratis; you pay whatever shipping/terms he wants, when the replacement unit arrives back to me, provided your located in the CON USA, I'll ship it back out to you un-opened; Gratis.  PM if interested.

Since you don't seem to understand the principle of FREE replacement I'll clarify.

The customer pays to send the product back to us....
and we pay for the New Replacement product Plus the Shipping Costs
back to the customer..

If you have any other concers you can ask them on the forum or even PM me.

Actually I already sold 1 of them that was less than 6 months old to a member on here for cheap.

I've got a 2nd one pending for a steal of a deal.

The other 2 I'm still debating on, as I really don't actively use them anymore; but then again they aren't costing me a dime with them sitting on the shelf. Those ones though have found some usefulness for comparisons for some members and outside for total portability; otherwise they are sitting safely in storage containers to keep them like new.

When I had them listed in my SIG, I did get several requests for them, and moved on some of them.
I'm never really big on selling stuff off though, usually it just hangs around somewhere in the house.

That's great electron... at least someone got a good deal from you on a no longer needed LPM...
Yeah... I treat all my LPMs with respect as well... and are stored properly when not in use.

hey i have one of thse  

So how does it perform for you.. compared to putting a wet finger into the wind?? ;D

I know you have a nice kenometer on the way that will be much more accurate...
but how was the performance of the LPM Module you got from us up to now..

How would you rate it as an inexpensive alternative first LPM for the hobbyist who has
nothing to test his lasers with ???

seems to work fine on my x100 shows 125mw nova showed 121-126
and my infinity 95 shows 80 mw wich sounds about right as wickeds stuff is overated just add a 10 dollar dmm and your set



note: it doesnt cover the 405 nm Range  but i dont think its supposed to right ??

also you kinda have to aim it at angles sometimes its a little picky

You are correct... the 120mW Laser Power Meter is no good at 405nm b/c the 405nm lasers
seem to heat up the sensor and change its characteristics... but we've found that it's quite close
for Green, Red and IR Lasers under 120mW.
