violet or red lasers?

[Mercanaries3]

so tell me which laser color do you like best? i prefer violet colored beats red colored lasers by 100miles... although 200mw red lasers are cheap and good for burning but not a very satisfying color..that is it gets boring.

blue/violet lasers are awesome and change colors when shined at different surfaces but high powered ones cost more cash..:undecided: you can order <50mw violet laser for cheap but i doubt they are 35-50mw...



so tell me which is your favorite laser color?

coincidentaly i got a 150mW violet and a 200mW red yesterday. I like the red better but thats more to do with the laser than the colour. red is much more visible during the day but violet i find is more visible during the night, think theres a graph demonstrating why. the violet glows blue on paper and stuff, but i havent found something that leaves a fluorescent trail yet.

I have 405nm, 445nm, 532nm, and 660nm. I use them pretty much equally. I just love lasers of all wavelengths...

They are kinda like my kids, I love them all the same!!!!

Now I just need a 473nm and a 589nm...

but i havent found something that leaves a fluorescent trail yet.

Try Urine, LOL... :crackup:
