WTB: complete single mode lasers

[Deleted member 17304]

Hey guys, I'm rebuilding my collection and I'd like to take care of some of the easier ones now...

I'm looking for ones with tail clickys (or anything I can toggle on/off). Preferably all in hosts different enough from one another so I can tell them apart. I'd prefer something other than a C6.

Still need
450-460nm 100+mW
635nm 100+mW
650nm 200+mW

Anybody looking to unload anything? I'd prefer to buy from the forums than something cheaply built or anything crazy expensive.

Don't know if you've thought about it. But you might want to send Lifetime a pm. He can make you just about any host or build you'd like. A thought?

Zach, if you are looking for diodes, I can help you there. My builds are all done by me and are special, at least to me, for that reason..... I can't let any of them go. But those are some very common wavelengths you are looking for and the diodes are all fairly inexpensive. For the 650nm I'd go with any of the LPCs. LPC-826, LPC-836 or LPC-840. I have some 660nm too that I could measure for you, but the wavelength will always change in a pointer because the heat will cause that to happen.

I kind of have an answer that fits both of your posts -- I'll go with building my own or making a custom order if nobody has one they'd like to get rid of. If I do my own I'll do an LPC of some sort, sharp 635, and plt5 450b, and talk with lifetime about some host options.

But I figured that I have some chance at asking around first since these are much more common wavelengths.

I don't know why you would prefer a used pointer over a new build. Maybe you believe it will be less expensive than a new one. I supposed I could build an LPC-840 for you. You could have it in any power up to 400 mW. I have a couple diodes in my stock and an adjustable X-Drive by Lazeerer. It would probably go in a 501B host as those are all that are necessary for one of these.

That and it gives me a chance to see what kind of hosts are floating around. Don't have a 501B yet so that is doable...
