Decided to try my hand at building a kit. I ordered mine from Survival Lasers.
Bought my Eagle Pairs from Gary and found him pleasant to do business with.
Ordered a M-140 diode from DTR. Arrived in a couple days. Decided to spend the small amount extra for the stainless steel host. The kit itself was all top drawer, including the G2 lens that had his beautiful blue anodized lens adjuster
Instructions were excellent as were the photos that guided me step by step, which were perfect for someone who was new at assembling his first laser.
Followed the step by step instructions. Soldered the driver to the diode, screwed it all together. I was rewarded with a beautiful laser that put out over 2 watts on my LPM.
Got to learn something, spent my money with 2 nice guys here in the good old USA, and ended up with a top quality laser at a fraction of the money I'd of spent buying one, and didn't have to pay a small fortune for shipping that usually takes forever.
I'm very happy with it, and am in the middle of putting together a 520nm that will be over a watt in power.
