My Arctic Photos + 1080p HD Videos Thread

Arctic Sold!

Hello, you might know me from LaserCommunity.com

Well basically, all I'm going to do is copy and paste that thread to these forums, so that I can share with you all the pictures and videos I've taken of my Arctic!

Will keep this thread updated with new videos and photos, so check the changelog (at the bottom of this post) to see if I added any since last you checked! Times in changelog are Eastern Time

Looks about right.. From that distance it compares with my 700mW 532, and if these are doing 800mW, -- we're spoiled, I think they're fine. The 'training lens', is it just an ND filter? Or how does it appear to be constructed?

+1 rep for the work on the pics and video...

Could you post some closeups of the host, particularly the end/lens assembly and the LED "holes" ?

 

[Gryphon]

Loved the vids, i really liked all the smoke you got to roll off that poor wallet :evil:

 

[Meatball]

So what is your Arctic ACTUALLY metering in at?

 

[jbtm]

Well, from others pictures, it seems you have one of the good lasers, 0.5" at 17ft...Instead of 5 inches at 15ft. Looks good! Cant wait for my G2!

 

[Moptsp]

This makes me want one a tad bit more. If only all were as good as yours. From what I can see, the battery indicator looks drilled out cleaner on yours more so than others also.

Added the video from last night, I forgot to add it. It's of me walking down the beam at night

Will do that

I have no idea, don't have the technology to measure it.

So, why are you selling it now?

 

[Nanolaser]

If i had a laser like that i would not sel it ! Thanks for sharing the nice videos. :yh:

 

[mikeeey]

NICE review!

Swift, might I ask how you're here and not banned from LC? I've never been to LC before but when I have tried to go there it always says I'm banned. I can only assume they've taken IP's from LPF and banned members? I also have videos of DIY and DX lasers on youtube, but this couldn't be a reason to ban someone from LC could it?

 

[realista]

thank you for VIDEOS!!!!

How can they take IPs from LPF when no one on LC has administrative rights on LPF ? I don't see why they would ban members from here anyhow lol, never heard of them banning anyone just because they were part of LPF. They wouldn't ban you for the reason you stated either.


And you're welcome you guys !

 

[ossumguywill]

has ANYONE metered an arctic? I'll look around, but I haven't heard of anyone doing so as of now.

 

[Moptsp]
