Red laser goggles?

[MARK1992]

The immense power of my Dilda has kind of scared me into investing in a pair of red laser goggles.

From what i gathered, Dragon Lasers is probably a decent choice. But they do have 2 models, slightly different ranges

590 nm to 650 nm

or

600 nm to 700 nm

Also i'm considering these

CLICKY
because, well they look good

Anyone here can give me advice on these or even give other recommendations?

Many thanks!

the dilda is one the 650nm range, but it this also means that some of the power is not exactly 650 but 653 or 647, so you need the ones that protect this extra range, go for the second ones

the shipping from DragonLasers (to US anyway) is really expensive. In my opinion, it's a better deal just to get the OEM certified goggles, and their shipping is extremely fast!

So if your buying those Dragon Lasers goggles, it comes out to be $48 shipped from China. Or you can go with the OEM certified goggles for $56.60, shipped from US (mine only took 2 days).

The last link is a good deal, $30 shipped is one of the lowest prices I've seen for red laser goggles. I might pick some up and test them when I get my LPM.

true, diodes do have a slight variation in wavelength (reds, and more with blu-ray). but the filters dont suddenly drop at 651nm, they have a more-or-less steep decrease.. the steeper the better, for visibility. but expect that (for normal glasses) +-10nm wont reduce the filtering much.
test them, anyway! with the laser you actually use. if its a cheap non-certified one, shine the laser through a corner of it, to check for degration. for certified ones, be sure to check the graph of filtering. no graph? then its not exactly trustworthy, if they call it certified.. i would be careful then!
