I dont care what some self-important customs peon Thinks she should let into the country, fact is, your job is to filter out items deemed dangerous or illegal by the Canadian government, and at this time, lasers are not classified as such. Now, get your head out of your ass and the sand out of...

Yeah, if they try to pull this on me, I fully intend to fight it. What they're doing is essentially theft.

Man, I have 2 lasers coming through Vancouver. I hope I dont have to put up with this crap. We Canadians need to put an end to this high-and-mighty BS thes dicks seem to be getting away with.

Anybody know if and where I can aquire a suitable drop-in replacement collimating lens for a Dragonlasers Viper series? Mine came loose one day, I tried to glue it back on. For the most part it works but the lens has a burnt looking greenish-red spot on it and the end spot has streaks coming off...

It was a 15mW Executive (same host as the 5mW 'Core'), only mine is no longer black, the paint rubbed off ages ago, it's now a fugly brushed-brass (refer to my previous post about rubbing it on clothing to make it work). I actually kinda like the look of their newer E2 host and the fact that...

I bought from them once, never again. The service was crap and the laser was garbage, i had to glue the button back on after I first used it and it fell off, and it never did produce more than 0.5mW unless you rubbed it vigorously on your pants to heat it up first. After I bought my second...

Nope, not yet anyway. Havn't been curious enough to need one yet.

Ordered myself an lzcb 200mW 532nm from lazerer the other day and decided to get myself a pair of these to go with it: Beginner Safety Goggles for 532nm / 445nm Laser I was thinking ahead and was wondering if >5 O.D. is good enough for 1W of 445nm, or will I need better ones? EDIT: better yet...

First, stay away from wicked, they are a crap company. Have a look at this (RIFLE532nm - 200mW Focusable Burning Green Laser) if you like the krypton (they have a blue one too). If you just want a visible beam and dont care about burning power, 10 - 20mW is more than adequate. If you're...

Thanks for the warm welcome. The O-like was a bargain $10 red pen, doesn't get any cheaper than that for a 100mW red. I Lolled. Hard. Wicked has really gone to $hit, if they ever were good...

Hey, long time lurker, first time poster here. Heard about this place years ago on WL forums back before they turned to nazis and everyone left. I currently have a WL 15mW exec (core style) and a 55mW CNI from dragonlasers and im looking to move up. Just ordered a cheapo 100mW red pointer from...
