Hi

I have been working with a handheld co2 laser of 20 watts and a diode laser of 4 watts. I don't have daily access to a computer so I am asking this here. What are some ways to increase the lasers (co2 and diode) output burning power? I know that more efficient cooling is one way for the co2, better optics perhaps? or combing several diodes through one unit for the diode laser

any feed back would be helpful

Looking back at your previous two posts, and noticed your concern over some laser pointers somebody was shining around. I think you ought to first consider the safety of your eyes and also your skin before even considering working with such lasers, let alone portable variants of them.
