Probably the last Wallbuys 450nm 2W

[norbyx]

Well if you have read the review that DJNY made on this laser you know that it is not 2W. Not even near, but to be honest I didn't expect it to be and for the price I don't think you can get any better than this.

I got the laser from wallbuys.com with a 50% discount, and the cost of it was of about $44 shipped.

Now what decent 450nm can you get for $44? Not many if you ask me. I don't know what diode this laser uses but it is 5.6mm and it is capable of 676mW peak and a steady power over time. It has a very nice looking host and comes with a nice aluminum box.

I was lucky since my laser came with 2 batteries in the box, fortunately there is no problem with that here in Costa Rica.

Conclusion:

You can't go wrong for $44 you get over 0.6W of blue 450nm power in a very good looking host, with 2 batteries and a nice aluminum box. I think it was quite a deal. Now at the original price of almost $88 than it would need to think about it.

Here are some pics:

For $44 you get a 676mW 450nm in a metal box with foam spacing.
For almost $250 , I got a 714mW 450nm from O-like in a paper bag .

What am I doing with my money?

Usually its defined as throwing it out the window... Well look at the bright side, you still have a more powerful laser than I do...

That apparently has melted the len housing .
I am starting to suspect it's actually just a 3 eles lens

Well sadly not everyone can grab the great deals... otherwise they wouldn't be so great of a deal anymore

Quite right, I usually grab bad deals, but every once in a while I get a good one. Too bad that in a bad deal I loose say 100 and in a good one I save 10. So to make it up for all the bad deals I get it would be practically impossible.

The LG Aries 175 I linked earlier in the deals subforum was sold for only $163...

I also received this laser within the past two weeks or so!

It's not too bad, I'll agree to that. It's a pretty solid laser.
