Argon tube

is to gas laser

as diode chip

is to injection laser

it is but a small component as stated above.

argon tubes are usually good for around 5k. 800 is pretty new

Well, that's kinda like saying people live to be 100 years old. IF they do, they're not doing a heck of a lot after 60. But yes, either way, 800 hours still has plenty of life in it.

Not really, 800/5000 = 16% & 60/100 = 60% so that would be like saying people live to be 100 and I'm 16 so I'm pretty young. ;D

Are we going to start a new age measurement system? On the same lines as dog years?

How old am I in laser years....

And when a bran new laser diode turns into a LED, that's equal to either down syndrome or sudden infant death syndrome!  ;D
