Hello! I am new to the forum here, I have been looking around at different lasers for a little while now, doing some research in an attempt to make a good and informed decision for my first laser purchase. And of course one of the first companies to catch my eye was wicked lasers, due to their flashy web site and seemingly (to me) great prices (as of recently? I have heard). I figure it only makes sense that me being a total noob at this stuff, I would fall for their perhaps schemes, ha ha.
But I guess I am just wondering about Wickeds lasers themselves, I was looking at the E3 series (the green one to be specific) for $100 a <200 mw laser- I have not seen any other site come close to a price like that for the power... Now as i look at the specifications one of the things to bother me about it is the diameter of the beam seems fairly big to me, at 1.5 mm... i would like to have something finer than that.
Are the specifications of the lasers on wickeds site untrue? or is there some other flaw with them that I don't see? How can they offer it so cheap when every other site- even ones your forum lists as quality good sellers cant come close to the prices?
I have heard about wicked and actually receiving the product being a nightmare, but I am more just curious about the quality of the product.
