Hello! I have been lurking the site for a month or two and finally decided to join. I live here in utah and I'm 30 years old. I've always loved small electronics since i was little and got into hobby grade RC cars and trucks. Today I still drive several RC cars and trucks(Gas and electric) as a hobby, and fly RC planes and Quadcopters. I would like to think I am proficient in Soldering and low voltage electronics.
Anyway I stumbled upon the site a few months ago looking for some christmas gifts for my brothers. I did some shopping around for some cheap laser pointers for gifts and ended up settling on some very cheap ones from Banggood and Gearbest. I got 3 sets of 3 colors (green, red , violet) for each of my brothers.
So now I've got the itch so to speak. lol
Also Looking for some beginner lasers as of right now.. I have been looking at the Sanwu site. they have some Pointers that are fairly cheap and was guessing those would be good starter lasers. Link.
I was looking at the 3 laser set, 100mW each. Would this be a good choice??? I have seen many 303 lasers on ebay and such, but am skeptical of quality and power.
Long term I would really like to get involved in the hobby and hopefully build some high powered stuff. Like I said i am confident in my soldering skills, even on a magnifying glass level.
This post is getting rather long, but I am excited to be a member. And thank you all for the Information I've already learned !
