Well guys and gals, we managed to make a white laser beam . Thye UK meet turned out to be a great success. The real stars of the show turned out to be the RPL30 blue and the 405nm violet , also making an appearance was the Aries 175, Viper 125, 2 pulsars, 4 labbys (red and green) Envee 125 , 400mW IR and of course the old RGY scanner.
The white beam was very difficult to make, we started with dichro combining the red and green to make a nice yellow, then had to line up the blue to make the white. I guess it took us over an hour to get 10 seconds of white, but was well worth the effort.
I have the whole thing on video, and I am currently working on a compilation of the weekends events. Coming soon, blue and violet lightsabre battle, 150 black balloon massacre, our first skylantern attempt (damn that was funny) and a whole load more. Just to get you drooling, have a peek at this.
Jase.
