    Batteries don’t fit into my laser?

    Why wouldn’t you recommend neodymium magnets? I have little hockey-puck shaped ones that could easily do the trick.

    Batteries don’t fit into my laser?

    Thank you for your individual responses. I realize I left out the “18650” bit, and mistakenly put 575nm instead of 525nm. I think I will play around with the solder and tug on the spring a little. I just didn’t know if soldering or sticking a piece of metal between the batteries would result...

    Batteries don’t fit into my laser?

    Hello everyone, so recently I bought a a laser from sanwu. The Striker Saber 525nm 1.2W. I received 69mm long batteries that came with it (the brand was Tuofeng) but one of the batteries stopped giving a charge, leading to me buying a new pair of batteries. I tried buying Samsung’s batteries...

    525nm 1.2W Sanwu Striker Saber doesn't turn on anymore

    Problem has been resolved thanks to trinh hong phuoc, thank you for your help! :) One of the batteries was bad, so I will be ordering a new pair from Samsung. Glad it wasn't the laser itself.

    525nm 1.2W Sanwu Striker Saber doesn't turn on anymore

    I took pictures but I can’t upload them from my iPhone XR. The site is saying that the uploaded file is too large. The charger and batteries are from Sanwu, I included them in my purchase.

    525nm 1.2W Sanwu Striker Saber doesn't turn on anymore

    Do you think the diode burnt out or something? How should I test? And I think my laser has reverse polarity protection, I could've sworn I read it on the description on Sanwulasers

    525nm 1.2W Sanwu Striker Saber doesn't turn on anymore

    A digital multimeter? One of those things with the red and the black prongs? I have one of those, but I don't know how to work it. I'll shoot an e-mail to Sanwulasers to see if they can tell me anything else.

    525nm 1.2W Sanwu Striker Saber doesn't turn on anymore

    The battery alignment puzzled me when I first got it, but figured it out and got it to work flawlessly. It was working fine yesterday, and decided i'd charge up the two Tuopeng 3000mAh 18650 3.7V lithium ion batteries in my dual charger (everything was bought from sanwu). I put it on the charger...

    Can I look at the dot of my 1.2W 532nm without goggles?

    I'm very careful about reflective surfaces. I accidentally ran the dot across a reflective surface while looking at it. Shocked, but I only had a tiny little after image which faded away in minutes. My vision appears to be normal after 10 hours.

    Can I look at the dot of my 1.2W 532nm without goggles?

    I've noticed that my eye(s) can get sore or sometimes have a little bit of a short-term burning sensation if I look at the dot on a white wall. Is that damage to my vision or is it just eye-strain?

    WARNING: To those with Nvidia GPU’s

    This may be obvious, but make sure you have a backup image of the freshly reset computer. If there's any issue at all... you always have that image to go back to and you won't lose your files.

    WARNING: To those with Nvidia GPU’s

    I believe you could also take out the hard drive if you really had to get to your important files. If that infected computer won't let you in, you could connect the hard drive to another computer and extract your files from there. If you don't have any other computer, perhaps you could buy a...

    Can I look at the dot of my 1.2W 532nm without goggles?

    I have proper safety goggles for it, but I'm curious if damage only occurs at this power when the beam directly hits the eye. I've glanced at the dot while shining it on darker surfaces which isn't as bright as a white wall a couple of times already. How cautious should I be? I have a sanwu...

    Global locations for members

    Country can be required State can be optional There's no good reason not to say what country you're from, that's just being way too protective. Should be a little note near the selection box explaining why we'd like their location. I know some sites use peoples IP addresses to find their...
