Moving to China?

[NRGLite]

Hi everybody,
There is a possibility that I will be moving to China in the near future. Can I take advantage of the lasers eg: overspec, cheap :drool over there? Or will it be even worse 'cause... they're Chinese lasers? :na:

There are some really good Chinese laser companies there like CNI an it is very close to nichia etc.

Care to let us in on why you may move to China? Do you speak Mandarin? or do you think you can learn? If so then it could be a great opportunity. China probably has a great future. They will soon surpass the United States as the dominant force in the world. As for the lasers I am sure you will have no trouble buying and owning lasers there, its bringing them back that could be a problem.

Wow Arg, thanks for the link. Now I want to go to china...

Really cool finds in china! Although I am going to call bs on 8w in something as small as that. If he shot his hands for 2 seconds without getting his hand burned up he has some really tough skin. I got an accidental burn from 1 second of 1.5w

the good thing about Chinese lasers is the regulation there is so loose , you can have a laser that can blow up the moon and the officials won't care.

Just be careful of the lemons.

Thanks for all the amazing replies, guys, I'm really excited now
'Blow up the moon'?! :drool:
and yes, I speak Mandarin quite well. Just see my post in the 'Post a picture of yourself'. I'm Asian!
Alright, CNI, Osram, loose laws, overspec-ness, cheap ness, ... gonna be a fun time.
@PiRSquared: Sorry, reason for going there is private.

You try that and get back to us.

where I live for example.
Hong Kong...

We have lasers and high powered spotlights coming out of every building every night.

You can fall back first onto a street and find fake Rubycon capacitors by the bucket.

Its a place OBSESSED with lasers

 

[NRGLite]

Great, epicham, it's a place flowing with beams and diodes.

 

[BShanahan14rulz]

A veritable land of monochromatic milk and high-power honey.

Hope it works out for you!

laws?
China?
lol?

It probably won't be full of laser crazers, but anyways, it will be greater than over here in legit, law-abiding America :crackup:.

Haha ok. Well, I know that they do get strict on some laws in China, like religion. They find out you are teaching Christianity , they will throw you in jail right away. �� Actually, I heard they just force their prisoners to do free labor for the government. Maybe that's why some things are so cheap to make over there. :thinking: Please correct me if I'm getting my facts mixed up.
