Hey Mike, have you measured the current draw from your laser yet? The power supply I tested mine with only provides 29v @ 7 amps... I'm kinda worried, it might be bad for the laser to not have the current it needs. Although it makes a NICE hole through a 2 inch piece of styrofoam VERY fast! :o I was surprised it went all the way through like that, I am useing a metal power supply cover as a beam stop. It really does burn white paper instantly! 8-)

yes Chris I wana make a double barrel ray gun ;D
 
Re: GB LIVE & OPEN for Small RF 5-10W CO2 LASERS!

Disma How ya doin, and congrats on getting your Babys how do you like them? I got my power supply today Ive got it set at 30 volts aprox 10/11 amps and running a 3volt 300ma wallwort to the pmw burns like a banchi :D

also about 30 sec and it drilled over half way through 1/4 inch plywood and didnt get hot this is good no? :)

Will round 2 be lower priced now that we have volume buy??

Be careful where the beam goes when it burns through the target. No crap here. I've been there too often.

Mike I understand couch burner, I have a question when we go to mounting should we isolate every thing metal from the laser and the amp as to keep the laser in tune I guess im saying to keep the swr down thanks lynn
 
Re: GB LIVE & OPEN for Small RF 5-10W CO2 LASERS!

Thats a VERY good question, I was just sitting here thinking about how I was gonna mount it all, I think Ill try a pvc pipe if I cant find anything else suitable. At least its plastic, and might make an interesting looking laser. :D I was also a little worried about stable mounting effecting the alignment of the laser.
 
Re: GB LIVE & OPEN for Small RF 5-10W CO2 LASERS!

According to Chris, Isolation of the heatsinks is needed unless you can tune the "transmitter" to the antenna. I've tuned antennas for years but this is a special case. Even shortening the coax feed can change the tuning.
1/4 wave and 1/2 wave coax lengths cause wierd problems in High Freq circuits. Stray capacity between source and load have to be accounted for. I'm being careful here.
