Would you be interested in a trade for a custom Maglite? Price is about the same. Details in signature

I'm still alive... I just slowed down for school purposes. I'm ready to take orders now.

I would love to see that thing in action if it where in a room full of mosquito's.

Hope theres not as much drama as Wicked Lasers is getting. As far as your lasers go, are there any legal concerns? Also, I recommend that you get some of your lasers metered by Daguin or any other reputable member of LPF immediately to boost your sales. If in fact the Spartan 1W does produce an...

Glad your happy! sandidgepatrick: Your 3D red Maglite will ship tomorrow.

bump.

A single P7 with three D alkalines runs about 90 minutes. Nimh would significantly boost it. Three 32650's on a single P7 theortically speaking, calculated runtime would be about 10 hours on high, but thats an optomistic guess.

You should make a heatsink for a 3C Maglite. I'd buy it right now.

Oh OK. I was under the impression that there was custom heatsinking to do. Well if its as simple as you say it is, I might give it a try. But i'm still going to buy the WL.

OK, so I going to go ahead and buy it no regrets. I can build flashlights, but I can't build lasers.

No, but I can order one for you.

Well you could do a 3C Maglite that runs on Alkalines. Or you could do a 4C that can take three 18650's or four C alkalines. $200 for the light, batteries, and charger included.

The price includes the Maglite :na: I cannot make a 2C Maglite and run it off of two disposable alkaline batteries. Its just not enough voltage to power the LED. But I can mod the 2C Maglite to accept two rechargeable 18650 batteries. You will get 900 lumens, and get a really long runtime.

Thanks for the tip, those D lithium batteries are not rechargeable, they're only 3 volts each, and there $15. When I use D sized lithiums, I go with rechargeable protected 32650's.

Great! I can save a dollar! This seems like a hard decision. I think I'm going to go with the WL.

So the Wicked Lasers 200mW 660nm sells for $50, and the new Mitsubishi 300mW costs >$320. :thinking:

It seems this is buy worthy. Can you build a 405nm 200mW laser for $90 or less?

I would definitely buy a >130mW Evo pro. I love the host, feels great in my hand, and in my pocket. And recently, it will make my wallet feel better too.

Thats because it probably is. Theres no way that thing is actually 200mW. What chinese laser has ever output ~200mW? Its all lies.

You beat me to it. They should make the diode at the peak human eye sensitivity wavelength. I guess when these things hit the streets, and when China gets a hold of them, there wont be any worrying about IR filters.
