Hey all, it's likely that I'm late to the game here, but I just noticed Podo has a new 900lmn flashlight on his website. Anyone know anything about it or know if there are any reviews yet? I think I'd like to look at one this month. If it's really 900lmn that feels like a great deal for $40. I...
We live in Kansas City and have had a hotel booked in Marshall, Mo for a few months now. Marshall is about 45 miles East of St. Jo. There may still be some rooms available at the Comfort Inn there. It's actually going to be in totality for 2 seconds longer than St. Jo and there won't be as many...
Thanks! That's very helpful for me. That's very interesting that the 800mw beam isn't as bright as the 532 you have. I'd love to have a red that is apparent when you turn it on - just pops into your vision like a 532 does. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree. The relative brightness calculator...
Hey there! I got my Sanwu Pocket 638 a few weeks ago with a G7 lens (and green safety glasses). I believe that it is multimode as the dot is actually a line and the beam is flat and expands over distance. It's a really sleek design and the host feels wonderful. It's so small. I got it to burn...
What a great response. I'm sold. Will be purchasing today or tomorrow. Thanks Sta and Podo for your sage thoughts! I'll leave a review when I get it. Super super excited about it.
Hey all, I'm about to pull the trigger on getting a Sanwu Pocket 638nm 300mw laser with a G7 lens. I've been researching for a couple of months now. I really want a red (or redish) laser primarily for star pointing. From what I've read, 300mw of 638 should do the trick anytime after dusk. Does...
Re: XPL discussion - "the miracle company"
Ahhhh somehow in watching these threads for a few months I've missed that detail. I've been eyeing the RG:Y and 635s. Didn't realize I was waiting for changes that wouldn't affect those guys. Thanks a bunch!
Re: XPL discussion - "the miracle company"
Do you think the RG:Y hosts will be updated and different as well? It seems in the videos that they are pretty different from the other hosts. Just wondering if these hosts will see changes along with the other hosts as well.
Re: XPL discussion - "the miracle company"
Agreed on the combiners. I've been watching these discussions about XPL for a bit and haven't heard much about the RG:Y combiners. I'd love a yellow laser, but certainly don't have enough money to spend on a proper one. Wondering if the combiner would...
Geniuses. That worked. I connected it without the tail cap on and the laser came on. I didn't have a probe, but I just connected it briefly with some wire I had laying around. I started looking at new tailcoats online, but then I found this video online describing how to fix the tail cap. You...
The contacts don't appear to be loose at least to the touch, but hopefully these pics might illuminate the situation a bit better. I took the pictures of the pieces seperately, but then took a picture down the tube to the diode end of the housing. Thanks a bunch for your help!
Hey there, I've tried searching this problem on Google and on these forums, but haven't found anything helpful. I received a 1W 445 laser (the 501B) from SciFi lasers last year. It's been working great up until the last month. I was going to email the joker directly, but it seems like that has...
