Thanks Lucidfer, the collection has taken a while to build, but it's been worth it! I have been enjoying this wavelength, it has become one of my favorites. :yh:

We actually made a titanium module which could be installed in the jetlasers ti-b host a few years back, could also be used for a 495nm build ;) .

Yes, I agree, the 495nm wavelength is beautiful for sure, and those Ti-B's were some of the best machined hosts that I've ever come across! :yh:

It's a good looking host and a good looking beam too. :D

You know it's difficult to tell from a photo, but that sure looks like a low wavelength one to me. Not any green in it that I can see. If this is an accurate color, it could be below 488nm.

Funny that you should mention 488nm, Paul; I'm just finishing up my 488nm (487) that I got from you a while back.
I just need to get some more pics and put something together about the build, and I'll post it in a few days; that reminds me, I've got to add that wavelength to my sig.

Cool, Jeff. I just love that color. I had my 477nm and my 488nm builds out last night just to play with. Those are both very light blue in color, but the 488nm one is just before it turns into cyan. Looking forward to you posting about your 488nm one. :yh:

I agree Paul, this whole range of new wavelengths are just spectacular in color, and all of them have their own allure; there's not a bad wavelength in the bunch! :yh:

Yeah, I love all of my recent acquisitions. I thought you were going to add your 488nm to your signature. Maybe you forgot. :D

No, just been outside trying to get some yardwork done before it gets dark and another work week starts. :(

I'll stick it in there now using the 493nm colors, and tweek the colors when I get a chance. :yh:

How hot is it there in Michigan? It is 89* F here, which is very hot for this area. I have noticed it is much hotter most places in the US right now. I have always hated doing yard work in the heat. I would get up early to get it out of the way before noon.

It was actually a beautiful day here today, it got to about 82°, which is a nice change from the unusually hot summer that we've been having so far.
We've already had quite a few more 90 + degree days than we usually have for the entire season.

I hate working out in that miserablely hot weather too, unfortunately that's when I usually get the time to do anything.

This week has been the hottest here so far this year with temperatures in the mid 80s to as high as 90. Tomorrow is supposed to be 90, but I hope they are wrong. I'm glad to have my air conditioner as few people around here have them. It rarely gets very hot here. I have a feeling there are going to be more hot summers than cool ones in the future.
