I can see the beam of my PHR in dark areas (closed garage, night outside) but the strangest thing is...even if it's focused, it still spreads out into a cone, and it isn't a biolet beam, it's more of a whitish beam like from a flashlight. I pointed it to the sky last night, and my face lit on like a kid on Christmas, it was the coolest thing =DDD 'Happy 5th birthday again'.

the 405nm wavelength plays tricks on your eyes being so close to UV so it affects people differently.

stuart :)

I'm not going to sell out anytime soon :P And I'll keep restocking when I get low.
 
Re: New Stock of Overspec 5mW Green

Lol exactly what I wanted to hear... Got it today but no idea exact measurement of output but it works and is straight! I don't mind the crookedness of the first one either but it keeps cutting off then on on me... I'll have to try a new set of batteries or something... Great lasers for the price!!!
 
Re: New Stock of Overspec 5mW Green

I just got my >44 mw greenie! Very Very solidly built! I can imagine this is how an opotronics laser is built. I dont doubt this is any less than 50mw!
 
Re: New Stock of Overspec 5mW Green

How much would shipping to Ireland cost? And is there any chance you might do the >44mw for extra charge offer for me? I know you probably dont wanna continue that, but I've been thinking of getting a 50mw from rayfoss and some of the members here advised that I consider your overspec lasers first. They seem like a good deal I must say.

Well actually my LPM just broke so until I get a chance to fix it up I won't even be able to do that!

Sorry :/

ok i see!!! im about to buy a laserbee soon.....as you know i do sell 5mw greens too( none internet) i really want them to know true power output on lasers
 
Re: New Stock of Overspec 5mW Green

Hey swimminsurfer256,

I just got my 2 lasers from you!!!!

really fast shipping, and I am having a blast with them,

I don't even have to use a meter on them and I can tell they are definately
over 5mW.

Thanks! :yh:

By the way, do these greens have a duty cycle?
I ask this because one of them works great, no problems with it.
And the other one I used for about a minute then it started to dim,
and the beam started to surge and dim over and over, until now
barely any light comes out of it.
I put in "just slightly" used AAAs in it and other than that, I treated it with care.

help...?

Thanks for all your help!
 
Re: New Stock of Overspec 5mW Green

I'm ordering a 100mw from Rayfoss, but I expect that I will be back here in 2 or 3 weeks to order one from you swimsurfer256. How much would the shipping be to ireland? €3 for international shipping right?

I'm pretty sure there's no duty cycle for these ones. The power isn't really something to brag about :P to make the laser live long I wouldn't keep it on for more than a minute or two at a time. Just get in the good habit!

He said they dont, but to be careful. Not sure what that means for your situation to be honest! If I was to guess I'd say they should have a duty cycle because they are, after all, overspec, way overspec as some people have said. If they are classed as 5mw then 30+ mw would probably require care to be taken. Thats just my opinion though, I'd probably be more careful than is necessary too. I dont really know though, I havent even got my first laser yet. Well, he did say he was pretty sure they had no duty cycle so just have to see what he says.
