WTB Handheld 1.5-2W Under $200

[Unthonijones]

I am looking for a powerful handheld preferrably 1.5-2W at a very cheap price, lemme know what you have to offer. I currently own a very nice 2+ watt, but I am trying to find something a bit cheaper than $300 preferrable under $200.

Who's DTR? I'm looking for a laser 1.5w - 2w range. The seller has to be in Canada because the customs are confiscating them.

WB has been strangely inactive lately... Hope everything is ok with him:undecided:

 

[JADWY]

Thanks I have sent him a PM.

Wannaburn typically charges a bit more than $200 for his lasers, and you will also need goggles, but his work is top notch... and with warranty.

Rhd is in Canada as well. He builds and sells solid lasers.

I'm basically in the same exact boat (he was fixing a laser for me). Something probably came up... he hasn't been online since the 15th, and that was only very briefly.

Before that he always replied same or maybe next day at the latest.

I suspect that's the case... but who knows. Life can get in the way of hobbies sometimes. I'm sure he'll get back to us as soon as he can.

His builds are definitely worth the wait though... If I had the money I'd ask him to make me a very very custom build, but pricing it out, no way I can afford it

Nah, WB does not strike me as the type of guy who would ignore PM's and committed to projects because of another hobby/project.

He was very communicative before, so unfortunately I suspect it's something more serious... WB if you're reading this, best wishes, and hope to see you back soon:can:

He did say a while back that he's working on a 445/532/635nm build (or maybe 650nm, I don't remember) where the beam would be combined and you would be able to adjust the current individually to each of the lasers in essence making multicolor handheld. Would be epic.
