I came across this interesting addon to the 501B host. It's for turning it into a latern.
I'm curious what kind of reflection it would cause. If it truly reflects all the light evenly in all directions, and what kind of power that would amount to when we're running >2W lasers.
Essentially, I'm wondering if anyone knows if this would be safe.
Check it out...
I appears to have a white plastic dome to diffuse the light, but if this was removed, the beam would go directly into the cone and reflect off.
Surely the beam focus can be adjusted to cover a larger area of the cone surface to reflect more.
It really serves no purpose, but it could be another fun, dumb attachment for a couple of bucks.
