Hello guys, i am courious about warming up times and working temperatures of the lases..
I have had a few experience with my lasers and most of them reach peak power after couple of seconds.. cca 30sec..
When i was not patient i simply put it on a heater and then i got working temperature immediately...
My question is , what does it mean??? Why is there any warm up time??? What is getting warmer??? Diode, crystal???
I really dont like this warm up time and i just want to know what is the matter??
I have had 10mw laser which has warm up time cca 30seconds, but it of courese depended on batteries... then i pot moded this laser and i got unbelievable results in brightness and additonal bonus, there was no warm up time since i did it... but when i took this laser outside where was cca 10 degrees celsius it was dimming till there was no lase...
My other experience with my other laser 50mw greenie was great.. there was no warm up, and even if i was outside in a winter with this laser there was no dimming...
After that i was thinking that warm up time depends on power of laser and if i will have more powerfull laser there will be no warm up time and my laser will lase at full power immediately.. but as i am checking around the forum i can see that you guys posting about your lasers which are 200, or 300mw and have a warm up time on it...
I am comfused, i dont understand it....
Could anyone enlighten me please???
Cheers guys
