record for most lasers bought in a day

[Jaseth]

Haha John, little dishonest to the wife I see, but I don't blame you

My record is not a number of lasers but an amount of laser related stuff:
532nm 300mW labby with TEC and Analogue/TTL switching - $655
DT-25 scanners - $327
FB3 LA-FREAK DAC package from Pangolin - $500
Heatsinks and fans - $32
Case - $92
Mounts and optics to combine with 650nm for RGY - $140

I also bought another Dilda - $41 and a memory card for the DAC - $13

Total: $1800

Maybe you had to entitle the post "record for most different lasers bought in a day" ?

Mean, otherwise, if i buy one of those bulk 509 pieces 5mW offers in ebay, who beat me, then ? (anyway, who the hell NEED 509 modules in a single time ? LOL )

Shhhhh.... will you guys be quiet :shhh: I'm trying to down load the internet.....:tinfoil:

 

[themandalorian]

You need glasses man..

just got some. 45$ with 5mw green and difractions and the glasses

 

[BrewCityMusic]

Actual "quantity" in one day, 42pcs mixed greenies (cheap stuff, only like $900 or so)

Money spent in one day - $2100 with SHINP when we were putting together our first rack of lasers... Although that was at distributor cost.

Moxt expensive laser, $2200 Hercules (although John, shhhh cuz you know how much I ACTUALLY paid )

Most Labbies bought in one day, 4 (although I did that one twice)

Most $ spent in the BST thread in one day, $440 (6X two-tone Kryton from Dave, 6X Polished Kryton from Jake, and a PHR diode in Aixiz)

Whew, now I'm glad MY "better half" doesn't read the forums, too ...

 

[lazorman]

Of course, pretty much everything pales in comparison with Yobresal's import - IIRC he had over 500 lasers in one shipment...

 

[larrball]

Like John had under his avatar before the new switch over to VB form..
"Help i cant stop buying laser stuff"
I thank that's what it said.--lol

 

[Mohrenberg]

that made my jewels hurt reading that

i called home a little while ago she was like you have 3 big packages here from hong kong
i was like really i thought the pool parts were coming from here in the usa

OMG you lied to your wife!, i'm telling!

did you know thats an automatic ticket to hell?

yea......i'm not even kidding....

SERIOUS BUSINESS!

 

[Mohrenberg]

does it count if you buy all the parts to build lasers?

i use to buy the parts to build 20 at a time, around $700 each time.
i miss it soo much...

My record is like 10 lasers from DX, to sell them on a big party I went. 5mW at 20€ (25$ at that times). Sold them all!
