Modwerx optic/mirror mount & mirror review. New items just added this month.
Modwerx Shop
The store site is very professional and easy to use/navigate. Questions sent get quick replies. :thanks:
As you go to the Home page the first thing you will see is a paragraph about laser safety and a link to read more about this extremely important info. This is something that every seller of related items should always do.
Miniature laser optic/mirror mount.
(description from Modwerx store) "This is a small space saving optics mount that will mount with 1x M4 screw through the bottom. The center of the mounting plate is 3/4" and will match perfectly with our lab style heatsinks. Precision adjustments are made by turning the 2x 6-40 screws to get the desired beam position."---$22.99
Note from reviewer---Heatsink in photo at the store site is not included, it is being shown only for reference.
The heatsink can be purchased at Modwerx.- The centers of both match up.
MODWERX Mount-----
total height: 1 1/8"
height to center of mount area: 3/4"
width: 3/4"
depth(including thumb screws): 7/8"
Model: M0046 --Shipping Weight: 0.0625lbs --45 Units in Stock
This product was added to thier catalog on Saturday 09 April, 2011.
15mm diameter first/front surface mirror
(copied from site)
"Specially coated mirrors attain maximum reflection of the most popular visible laser diode wavelengths. Optimized at 45°, these mirrors achieve..greater than 95% reflectance from 600 to 675nm versus only 85-90% for standard first surface mirrors. This reduced loss becomes particularly significant in multiple reflection systems.
$18.99"
This mirror is highest quality, new, and if loss is important(as when your laser must be reflected several times) then this type of front surface mirror needs to be used.
Overall I found this mount and mirror to be very well made and is easy to adjust. And the screws and threads are very smooth and the knurled knobs are very nice- easy to make fine adjustments- a must for all applications. It is the perfect size to do its job while having a very small footprint.
total for both items $41.98 shipping costs are:

Loss test using red lab laser(655nm IIRC)- direct readings(Kenometer) of 81, and 82mWs and reflected off Modwerx FS Mirror 77, 78 and 79 mWs. see photos of actual testing -- So not much loss. Reflection angle was approx 20 degrees.
Second test was done at approx 45 degrees and had similar results 85 vs 82 mWs.
Further tests will be done with other nm lasers and with other FS Mirrors.I will add a link to that test here when it is posted.
Pics coming here asap- I must go to another PC to add them.
Much Thanks to Modwerx for allowing me a sample to do this review.:thanks: I plan to buy at least one or two for my new projector projects.
