Hello Everyone!
So I just checked and the last time I was on here was about 18 months ago?!? Woah.
I was just sitting on my couch today, and some fog started to roll in, that triggered a thought about lasers and that I haven't been here in forever! So, what have I missed exactly? As I said...
Hello Everyone,
So I have just recieved a wonderful build from the master; Blord.
This laser was a custom build requested by me, it is an Opnext 120mW 638nm in a black, unmarked, C6 host with an orange tailcap button, to match the orangey-red wavelength :). The laser cost me $125 including...
Hello Everyone,
So I just received the laser that was shipped to me by Blord, in two seperate packages. It's a 120mW 638nm Opnext laser in a C6 host. I've assembled the laser, inserted batteries, turned it on and...nothing. At the current time I'm assuming that this is my own fault and not...

Hello Everyone,
Welcome to the first laser contest :wave:.
Category
For the first comp, the category is 'Best Laser under $100'. This can be of any wavelength or output. Remember, it has...
Hello Everyone,
So now that the first contest has been created, this thread is going to be for suggestions, ideas, problems, issues, etc.
So post all of the above here and not on the actual contest threads.
Thanks,
Gun :wave:
Hello,
So I've seen this thread on other forums that I'm on, so I thought I'd make it here! I did search a around and I couldn't find a thread similar to this, but if there is one then you can delete this thread.
So basically just post what songs you're currently listening to :)
Personally...
Hello Everyone,
This thread is meant to be helpful for newcomers that are wondering what to include in their Introduction thread. I've seen a lot of new users post very brief and un-descriptive threads that basically tell us nothing, similar to the following:
greetings!
Im matt im 26 and I'm...
Hello Everyone,
So I've been reading through a lot of safety threads on the forums and I've seen a similar one popping up saying something like this: "I own a 1W blue laser, can I look at it without goggles?". There have been very mixed answers concerning when it's extremely important to wear...
Hello Everyone,
Well I've only "built" (connected a module to a power supply) my first laser today and well...I'm already planning another build :D I think I've fallen in love.
I'm sort of planning a handheld build as I think I may have convinced my dad to let me! I'm thinking I'll go with red...
Hello Everyone,
So all the parts finally arrived for my first build. Not sure if it's really classified as "a build" or not, I connected a power supply to a module :p. I ordered the following parts:
- 30mW 532nm Laser Module
- 12mm Heatsink Mount
- 3V Power Supply
- Australian Power Plug...
Hello Everyone,
So I was on <someone's> profile and I saw Laik post a video, I clicked on it not expecting much. This is the video:
<Video Removed>
If you watch the video you'll hear "<user name removed>" mention <someone's name> and LPF numerous times. You'll also notice that's he's messing...
Hello Everyone,
Basically I'm just wondering if anyone here was ever nervous or still is nervous about damaging their eyes with a laser, I sort of am. Being someone who has not yet handled a high-power laser, it's a scary thought to think that for whatever reason, if your safety goggles were to...
Hello Everyone,
So I'm looking for the best flashlight that costs under $70, including shipping. I was recommended THIS one by InfinitusEquitas since I couldnd't afford the modded one he was selling. Is it the best bang for buck? It seems like a very good deal.
So yeah. Tell me what you think...
Hello Everyone,
So I thought it would be a good idea to start a Laser Pointer Forums community YouTube Channel! On the channel we will all be able to upload laser unboxings, tutorials, reviews, etc! If there is already a channel for the forums and I've somehow missed it, then please let me...
Hello Everyone,
So as I've noticed, people here seem to like GIFs. Now you may want to resize a GIF for an Avatar, Signature or maybe just so it doesn't look so big in your post.
I'm going to show you how to re-size a GIF and keep the animation as many programs remove the animation when you try...
