You're trying to save money on the wrong thing. Get the best eye protection you can. Eyes cannot be replaced. Although I believe that you do not have to pay for your seeing eye dog ;)

Peace,

try dragon lasers or cni they seem to be the best when you look around the forum...

later:tinfoil:

Well, since this laser puts out approx. 50mW of IR, I can't recommend single-wavelength glasses. I made the mistake of burning stuff using a non-IR filtered laser with just 532nm (red-orange) safety glasses, and got a painful lesson about IR coming from a green laser.
I would have recommended these: Protection Glasses for 532nm Green Laser but, they don't protect against IR. So, with a 200mW, you should get these from OEM: ML7 - KTP, YAG, Red/IR Diode Protection ML7 - KTP, YAG, Red/IR Diode Protection [NR-ML7-00FDA] - $149.60
Excellent protection, (OD 4.2+ @ 532nm) and (OD 3.5+ @ 1064nm) and (OD 3.5+ @ 800-810nm), but they are kinda' expensive :cryyy:

Hey Dave, which Model from OEM do YOU use ? rob

I don't recall offhand. I told them what I was going to be doing. They told me what I needed. I bought them. These beautiful, baby blues are too precious to me, to risk. I have one pair for UV-green and another pair for yellow through IR

Peace,
dave
 
KRUTZ talked to a techie at OEM who recommended the ML-7 Model for protection against just about ANY wavelength a laser hobbyist would come across, so I bought the same ones. I don't have to change glasses when I change laser nm's. The ML-7's cover them all to one degree or another. I'm VERY happy with mine. But, yes they ARE pricey. Mine were $156.00 shipped, but worth it IMO. rob
 
I'd be VERY LEERY of buying ANYTHING from BOBLASERS. They don't have a very good REP on this Forum. Their laser-shades might be OK though. rob

Oh I'd definitely not purchase anything else from them. They just gave a really good deal (something like $28 including shipping with DHL) for the glasses and the glasses were really good.

Lasers.... no thanks :)

Hey there! i have also been doing some research on this laser... Im getting this really soon like within the week and it will b my first laser (200 green flx).

Any way i dont really know much but u could also consider these goggles

Laser Glasses - UV to Green Lasers Protection 190-548nm :: Laser Safety :: Dragon Lasers

Its OD4 aswell dont know if it blocks IR...

They do not block IR, and if you burn with these glasses and a 200mW non-IR filtered green, you will not see a bright light, but you will feel pain and a serious headache. :(
I now only recommend the ML-7's from OEM systems. Link
I have used both the Dragon Lasers and the Zone Stealth glasses, but neither protect against IR so they aren't "safe" to use (for burning / or up-close [divergence calcs]) with this laser. :cool:
