I need to know their burning capabilities, cost effectiveness and also a quick view on the RAYFOSS situation in terms of Customer service and delivery to UK.

I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU ALL, for helping me in advance. Think this forum thing isgonna be awsome :bowdown:

Go laserbtb website. They make the laser in the first link you posted. They have much more selection and you can trust any laser from them will be quality and overspec.

Yes but laserbtb tend to be pretty expensive compared to rayfoss I've got a budget of about 70$ Bout £40. So any thoughts?

Well 150mw of 405 is not going to be bright at all. Burning will also be limited. Match lighting, tape cutting etc. the beam will very slightly visible at night. As far as which one, the first one would be my choice without question.

So if If I wanted a CHEAP laser solely for burning, do you have any recommendations? Sorry I'm a noob to this wonderful hobby, Links would be much appreciated thanks.

1w 445nm blue laser for around $100. That's as good and as cheap as it gets. But that's not including batteries, charger, shipping, and safety glasses. But this thing will burn anything combustible. Matches and balloons will be a joke. Bt this laser is to be taken seriously .

Of course! I regard SAFTEY as my number one priority. Thanks for all the help btw. This is why I love this forum! I shall be 'repping' you. Or something like that

Did you check the link I gave you??? Blord is one of our best builders. I have one of his masterpieces and you would be very smart to get one of his 445nm

I did I'm looking into it. Just Goddard wait for my pay cheque now :/

 

[Tmack]

Trust me it will be worth it. If you just buy one now out of impulse , you will buy junk that will break and not to mention be weak!!! This is 1000mw and will make that 405 look like a key chain.

Cigarette from 10 feet, light a match from the wood end. Etc.

But glasses are NEEDED!!!!
