I´ve received the lasers today! very happy, i highly recommend chuck and aixis lasers. The first shipment that he sent never came and last week he sent them again trough express mail, EXCELLENT customer care, quality and warranty!

I hope i had no problems at customs, a friend today told me that they will put me in jail for importing dangerous stuff :D I know what you mean about the driver enclosure, do you use fans also to keep it cool?, i´ve told chuck to send me the ac powered that costs the same and i can use them...

Ok, i just sent the money to chuck from aixis, i hope everything goes ok. I bought the 15mW 3 pack. I´m very happy, hoping they came and not to have issues in the argentinian customs...

Ok, i´ve decided it and tommorrow i will buy the aixis. Today i´ve been thinking about IR light. Does anyone knows if the aixis model has an IR filter? i´ts almost sure that it has, but just to be sure... PS: You guys and this forum where really helpful to me, to make a decision and to learn a...

Because i want the driver apart from the module, i think that way the laser could last more (perhaps i´m wrong), besides i can´t understand the difference between a big driver and a small driver. So my question is if i put a heat dissipator on the module can last more hours turned on? For...

Is this a good laser? if i use a heat dissipator on the module do you think it could last many hours turned on? 3 pcs 5mW Class IIIA 532nm Green laser module tube DIY - eBay (item 320363904875 end time Feb-18-10 07:55:01 PST) Thank you PS: actually i still can´t understand the difference...

Hmmm, you made me think :thinking: Is there a light, led, set of mirrors or something that ressemble a laser beam, of about 0.5 cm or 0.2 inches in diameter or so... the light will not travel too long, about 3meters or 9/10 foot I know the laser is beautiful and unique in many ways (visually...

WOW, amazing reply Steve, thank you for that paper, i am currently reading it, very good and informative. Highly recommended!

Hello everybody, thanks fo the replies!. The laser will be pointing to somekind of moving water, inside a translucent container with no cap, i´ve made some tests at an expo last year with a 5mW and it seems fine, but i preffer your advices just in case i´m missing something (not my eyes or...

Hi all, i have a question. If i have a green laser pointing from the top to a glass full of water, do these reflections in the water are dangerous with a 10mw laser? Also, if anyone can clarify me the concept of spectral reflection it will be great.

Hi guys, thanks for your advices and help, when i have the images i´ll post it here, you were reallyyyy helpful. :wave:

Wow, super fast reply photonaholic, thanks! I´ll look up for niko, and i would like to make you another question, if you please me: I´ve heard about divergence, my idea is to use a beam splitter and mirrors (or it was before i found this forum and see that the lasers that don´t overheat costs...

Hi photonaholic, that laser from Aixiz seems great, but as i told it should be class IIIa, so i wont blind or disturb anyone with reflections near the laser. By turn down the adjustments you mean that i can make it a <5mw one? if so, how can i measure the mW on a laser, or does it have a...

hey! thanks for the replies, this forum works fast! Ï´m using a keychain laser, the cheap ones <5mW (class IIIa), as far as i know if i use more mW (class IIIb) it could be dangerous to the eye, even the reflections, the laser is intendend to be in a public space, pointing to a plastic surface...

Hello, this is my first post and this forum is great! i´m pretty new to lasers and i would like to know something, i already broke 3 <5mw laser pointers just testing... I connected the modules to a 3v 250 mA dc power supply, but they don´t seem to last too much, they get overheated. So i was...
