Reliable? Legit? Anyone bought from thdm?? TIA

Hi gang. Been traveling. Hong Kong, Thailand, Europe. Hard to leave Thailand. 😊 Can't wait to see new power levels. Lordy knows what you guys have put together. Glad to be back with my laser pals.

Had the little pistol type. Enjoyed it so much, I bought a Barnett Jackal. Just assembled it. Anyone else use a crossbow?

Just heard Aixiz has some that just came in. Anyone know something about these?

Hi I, like a lot of you have a small box of lenses. 3 elements, couple made by DTR for 520nm, a number of G-2'. Of the G-2's I see different dealers selling them for a fairly wide range of prices. They are all expensive. Relatively speaking. I've used DTR's and SL lenses. they both seem high...

Well the holy grail of having a 1 watt 209 is still out there somewhere. I wasn't the one to find it. I did learn what turning a nice diode into an LED looks like. Ran great for about 30 seconds. Then no nice bright light. Came inside and saw a dim violet glow. That last 100 mA was the straw...

I had one run happily at 600, then at 700. No problems yet.(only a 30mw increase) I have a couple spare diodes, as they weren't overly expensive, and they are fun little burners. Thanks

Hi everyone,I was able to get an unanodised host from Gary when they first came out. After trying various grits of sandpaper, and different compounds on my large polishing wheel, I came across this cheap item from Harbor Fright. Basically a round ball made of that 3M scratchy pad material. Like...

Got a 465 diode from DTR. S4X host and SXD driver from SL. Got a little help from Gary at SL. ( Can't say enough good things about Gary @ SL and Jordan at DTR, thanks guys) Got the driver set at 4.5a. Soldered and screwed it together,and voila. New at this putting my own lasers together, but...

Soldered together a SL kit using a 16X BDR 209. Driver puts out 600ma. I love it. Puts out 900mW, reliable, and a great burner. But recently have the ability to Increaese driver up. Was going to try to increse driver from 591 to 617. Hoping to go over 900mW. Am I wasting my time? Got some new...

I have an old mod that's been laying around. Found I preferred the smaller thin battery that runs the Kangertech attachments. Don't need that big of a cloud of smoke :) The battery portion has no adjustments. Basically a battery holder. DTR sells ones that run off a single 18650. ( two 16340's...

I made a mistake suggesting using alternative effects lens with the JL pen lasers. I tried screwing them in all the way, instead of part way, and knocked the little glass or plastic portion off the front of diode on my red one. If you do use them, just don't try to screw them all the way down...

Noticed the threads on the tip of my Jetlasers pen series after someone here mentioned they were there. Well, I don't think a small BE is offered for them. So being the curious type, I tried screwing in the extra lenses that come with the Sanwu lasers. They fit perfectly. Just wanted to share...

Had my annual appointment with my eye Dr yesterday. Anyway, after taking all the tests, having my eyes photographed with all manner of high tech equipment, she's ready to send me on my way. I say, "I haven't burned any holes in my retinas playing with those lasers have I?" She looks at me and...

Most of you know about these. Always wished it had more power, but the host looked so cool, I figured I'd be happy for $149. I should have figured it would be over spec and it is. Topped out at 170, stabilized at 160mw. The host is every bit as awesome as I thought it would be. Just beautiful...

Wondering if any of you have used these. They sell them pretty cheap on Amazon. I'm thinking they would be safe to use as the lasers that power them defract into hundrdeds of smaller lights. Unless someone takes it apart and looks into the main lasers running them. Sure would beat stringing...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/201335584990?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT If it's too good to be true, etc I see these on eBay. Has anyone out there bought one? Appears to be a cheap labby but got to ask Thanks

I'm constantly surprised that we always seem to come up short on our very low donations goal. This month it's a measly $400. I realize many of you are young, going to school whatever. But really guys, are you not getting a dollars worth of fun and information? I've saved a lot of money just...

I was surprised when my friend bought this for his 4 year olds birthday. I guess object of game is to see how long one can keep the little beam running? Did Bruce have this as a child? :)

Decided to try my hand at building a kit. I ordered mine from Survival Lasers. Bought my Eagle Pairs from Gary and found him pleasant to do business with. Ordered a M-140 diode from DTR. Arrived in a couple days. Decided to spend the small amount extra for the stainless steel host. The kit...
