WTB Inexpensive LaserBee

[SmurfTacular]

Im looking for a laserbee (or kenometer) that is capable of measuring both 532nm, and 405nm lasers. And it also has to able to measure up to 200mW. It dosnt have to have graphing capabilities, nor does it even have to have a screen. It could be plug into a multimeter. I know they sell $40 Laserbee's, but they dont measure 405nm, and they only go upto 120mW. So if you have one please let me know, I plan on reviewing all the "200mW" lasers on Focalprice.

According to "http://laserpointerforums.com/f52/laserbee-120mw-laser-power-sensor-37934.html"

There are plans to release a meter that detects 405nm light. No idea on a date though, you'll have to press him for that.

As for the 200mw requirement, ND filters have been suggested in the past.

I would definitely buy a cheap Laserbee that could detect 405nm and an ND filter. That would be sick!!!!!!!!!

 

[SmurfTacular]

Does the 405nm laserbee also mearure 532nm? Or are they completely seperate? Because if they are spereate I might as well just buy the $40 532nm laserbee, then later buy the 405nm...

pretty sure Jerry includes a formula for calculating 405nm with his low end sensors.

Jerry?

Ken is selling his light non logging version of the kenometer for $150 right now. http://laserpointerforums.com/f39/kenometer-laser-power-meter-interest-updated-lite-version-45280-2.html#post617325

What's the difference between the laserbee power meter in the link you just gave and the laserbee power meter on your website? Are they the same or is the one on ebay an older version?

The difference is that the one on eBay is less expensive because it
does not come with the Data Logging Option... (can be update later)
Unless you pay $29.99 Extra..

BTW... they are the exact same date version... without and with Data Logging...

Yeah... I know... I ordered the very 1st one...

Hope it is as good as the regular Kenometers that I already
have 3 of...
I'll be testing the Lite version and let the members know the results...

Thanks for linking to Kens similar sales thread....

So are you and Kenom enemies? Cause you guys are competitors right? Isnt that kinda awkward being on the smae site? lol...

This is a really hard decision.... kenometer or laserbee....... hmmm.......

 

[HIMNL9]

Enemies ? ..... LOL, i don't think (well, at least, i never seen them do a last blood duel at the dawn ..... nor seen Jerry send to Ken a squad of raging Harley bikers, nor Ken send to Jerry his avatar (Venom) in visit for lunch ..... sorry, LOL )

No, seriously, why enemies ? ..... they sell similar products (but not the same product, anyway), but i don't see why this have to made them enemies .....

Ken and I are adults... and we get along just fine...

He makes a great Kenometer... and as I've said before I have already
bought 3 regular Kenometers directly from Ken including his 1st Kenometer
Lite... (still waiting for delivery)
If they were not good meters... there is no way I would have bought
3 more...

We designed the LaserBee I to be affordable and accurate in it's 1 Watt
range.. and always have them in stock...
Since we assemble and test all the LaserBee I products in our shop using
brand new parts... they ship out as soon as soon as they are sold.. usually
within 24-48 hrs..

The 2 LPMs are different... and reading the Specs and Features of each
should help you decide which is the better choice for you...
