Hi Guys...and Gal if one or two happen to be around.

I have to confess, whenever I send out one of the higher powered RPLs, I still get almost as excited about them getting it as the customer is (just ask Greg). Just like a 16 year old kid getting their drivers license...or maybe +40 year old getting their lasing license so to speak.

Do you think this is weird or what?

I just take great pride in my RPL lasers and it's really satisfying hearing great comments from the customers about how amazed they are and how much more powerful they are than anything else they've ever seen; it's a great feeling!

Greg, I would have sent you and RPL-325 o one of the few RPL-350's I've got, but I didn't think it would safe for you.... Just think, if you made these comments about an RPL-260, the 325 or 350 might have made you pass out or get chest pains.....just kidding.

Enjoy doing the review, but try to keep from putting melt holes into everything in the house like I have...unless of course you do it in the name of science and show us the pix.

Nah, it isn't weird at all. Where is your company located ?
 
I'm so buying a 350. This is by far one of the most exciting lasers I've ever stumbled across.
 
More new pics...

The HIGH quality aperture shutter

The nice lense beneath the removeable aperture shutter ( so you can clean it )

Why the RPL has such a good beam diamter, look how big the aperture is! It's TINY.

Man..that picture of "The tailcap ( inside )"...it looks like that part is built like a tank...lol. For lack of better words...
One day I will have an RPL.. :)
 
Hi Aseras,
Thanks for posting our pictures.
I got up this morning and saw this thread at the top and I thought SenKat has posted his review...

Jack
 
Awww...I thought SenKat posted his review as well...

Those are really nice pics.

Now If I can just find that "Spare" 2 grand I had stashed away in my "Laser Fund" ... ::)
 
All - I appreciate the patience with which you have exhibited regarding my review of this phenominal laser ! "LIFE" happens though, and it has prevented me from participating much on the forum, as well as getting the review posted....expect it a little bit later on today, followed by a tearful goodbye as that beast is sent back to heavenly Colorado, Back to Jack ! It is SUCH a nice laser....Dang - Jack, I WILL be bbuying one of these for certain !

Greg
 
Please allow me to drool.

MMMMMM...RPL...RARLGRLGLGRAR <insert homer drooling noise here>

Definitely not an ordinary CNI pointer.  I need a better job so I can get one of these.  ;D
