Hi All,

As it seems to be the rule here before asking questions, I'm introducing myself:
I'm a 49 years old guy from France.

I started working (playing) with lasers in 1989 (on something called "Pulsolith") but as I was specifically involved in software, I just had the oppotunity to see and sometimes use these machines. I didn't conceive or build them. So I'm no laser specialist.

I only kept a 0.95 mW HeNe red from that epoch.

Then last year I discoved DealExtreme and bought a green pointer.
And I can't explain why but I recently felt the need for more:

250 mW red from olike
1000 mW blue from olike
and 400 mW PL-D Pro green from JetLasers

Oh, I forgot to add : safety goggles EP1 for 190-540nm & 800-2000nm (Blue, Green, Infrared (IR) and Blu-ray Lasers) and a lighter orange pair that came with my latest green.

I've some doubts about what these things give and I'll ask a few questions later in the appropriate forum.

Thx for reading.

Nice to see a county neighbor.

Yes, and maybe even more than you think. My grandmother lived in Belgium in Les Ardennes (and still lives in the French side).

Completely understandable, it's one of the most addictive hobbies out there, and sounds like you're hooked so you're in it for the long haul :eg:
