Okay, has anybody else gotten one of these yet or metered one? Sta, have you bought Ricker's LPM to test it?

I have purchased Ricker's LPM, and I should have it in a few days.
Alright! I'm interested to see how this 532nm holds up to the claims. I'm fed up with trying to find >200mW modules, and your dibs post reminded me of these.
Let us know how it goes, and congrats on the new LPM.
Sta, what happened to your 589? It says damaged?

Yeah, I sent it back to them for repair/replacement. Without warning it suddenly lost power, then it kept losing power immediately when I turned it on. I think a crystal broke off or something.
I don't have an LPM. But I have bought both of these lasers and they certainly live up to power expectations. The 532 is insane. i will be posting reviews in the next few days once final exams are over (along with PL-E Pro 3.5W 465). The 635 red is a great burner up close, but the divergence is way worse than my 450mW 635 from rayfoss. Nice long duty cycles on both of them. The 532 does mode hop quite a bit, but it's DPSS so that's inevitable and it does have a beefy pump diode. I still like it better than 1W 520 because the beam quality is way better than a heavy-duty 520. The 520 burned way better because it was focusable and more powerful, but i never found it to be a very good burner anyway so I use red and blue for burning but not green.
I just saw their 1.5W and 1W 532nm...
Those are some screaming deals at $355 and $253 if they're legitimate. Still more interested in the 500mW though.
Yes, I've got my eye on those too. Only problem is they're momentary switches.
I went to buy the 500mw about two weeks ago and I talked with a guy at XPL asking if they made a focusable 500mw 532. And he said in a month they would have hosts for all his 532 handhelds that have the ability to adjust the focus.
