DPSS green lasers are made with an IR diode then a crystal which makes it green and reduces the power for instance a 1W IR diode would make a 100-200mw green laser so how powerful is the IR diode in a cheap 5mw ebay one ? Could I possibly remove or break the crystal and have a 100-200mw IR laser which could burn stuff ? I do not plan on doing this it's just a theory. I already have a 200mw green laser for burning stuff :thanks:
