Hello,
I made a complaint to the laser pointer store a couple of months ago in an email. It was basically about why I would not consider buying from them (Laser Pointer Store) because of the resellers of their Thor sieries lasers are selling under powered lasers, if you order a 5 watt you get a...
Hello,
Last night, under a full moon, I was shooting my 1 watt red laser at several small clouds near the moon. One cloud for a minute, then the next, then the next. 3 total. Each dissipated in about 5 minutes after I had shot them. Each in it's turn. I went in and told my wife and showed her it...
correction, my new unusable laser is a 635nm red 1 watt Challenger II. It is supposed to have 2 battery compartment for multi mode. They sent it with the single battery compartment. I hear they have great customer service. We will see.
I just got one of those 1 watt 520nm lasers today. It does not light up with the single 18650 battery. I have not tried adding a battery. Do you think they sent the wrong battery configuration for me as well?
Hi,
It opened up easy. I just turned it by hand. I don't know why it was so easy this time around. Warmer weather? Anyways, it looks like the copper heatsink in these isn't very long. Maybe an inch. BTW this turned out to be a 3 watt laser. Is a heatsink of 1 inch enough for this laser? I run...
Hello again.
I am mostly interested in hobby laser material. I think we can skip the physics. Anything for building pointers would be good. Laser light show material. Laser art. Lasers in photography.
Thanks for any suggestions. I will look them all over. =)
Hi,
Skip on buying from this site. No real customer service, it takes days for an e mail answer, and the phone always says there is no one available.
And they sent an under powered laser.
So I payed about $100 too much for my 3 watt. It shows about 3.2 watts on lpm.
Since it was supposed to...
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone uses their lasers for art, or scanning effects, or anything other than build, learn, and burn? Laser scanners are cool. Laser show effects are what I'm getting at. I had an $80 simple laser show once, gave it to my nephew, and he loves it. If I were to buy a...
Hi
I have a black light flashlight that I use for florescent minerals. The googles work excellent for that. I also use my goggles for general daytime use outdorrs as the provide superior Blue, violet, and ultra violet protection as well as decent infrared protection. And I use them indoors when...
Cool on the SUV. They can be real fun. I own a Explore Scientific 102 ED telescope on an AVX mount and have a few very nice photos I'll have to share soon. And I buy/collect/invest in meteorites. I also like burning through a Popsicle stick in less than 2 seconds from more than a foot away...
