I want to tell everybody of a couple of joys here, I just got back my LPM, it had a problem, but the incredibly kind Kenom has fixed it and it seems to be right where it was when working before. (It again agrees very well with readings of both the copper heat sinked and very stable Red and Blu-ray lasers I have made by Flamingpyro, also an incredibly great guy btw, and metered on his Laserbee). I am so happy and relieved to have a good working meter again!
Another great thing, is my review Spyder I Pro may be "burning in" as it now averages over 260 mW! I was quite sure in the first several test runs it was at about 220 mW AVG, but it now goes no lower than 140 mW and is mostly reading in the 150 to 175 mW range. This is a great laser and I am very pleased with it.
I also want to thank Wicked Lasers, and Steve, for being the only laser company so far to donate a laser to the LPF raffle, and a FDA compliant laser at that! I offered to get a raffle prize listed by all the other highest quality companies, and honestly I still don't count them out as it's early yet. But so far only daguin, IgorT and Wicked Lasers have made a firm commitment to donate complete lasers for the fund raiser! I feel this is really a great way they show they support the LPF! I really can't say enough about these great guys! Thanks all! -Glenn
