There are two reasons I want to replace the 532 nm:
1. It doesn't work very well in the cold.
2. Green pointers are so last year...
I could get around point 1 by using one of the new 520/515 nm diodes, but that wouldn't help with point 2... Based on my tests, when dark adapted, a 10 mW 450 nm...
I'm looking for a 20 mW blue laser pointer to use as a pointing tool during astronomy meet-ups, replacing my 532 nm DPSS pointer. I already have laserbtb's '5 mW' 450 nm laser (which is actually 10 mW) but would like to upgrade the power a bit. So far I've only been able to find ridiculously...
