What do we do with new technology of this power ????? WOMD :-( HM

I don't know how many SSY-1 heads there are out there anymore but parts are rare - -especially flash tubes. I am trying to find a source but I need to know if there is interest in some. I have no price yet so your reply is non committal !!!! HM (mike)

It has been a long time on this SSY-1 project. I had it working in that small space and then broke the flash tube moving the heavy anode wire. I am working with a company which may be able to provide me with a new tube(s) ? That SSY is a great little laser and there are no flash tubes...

I have a FAP800-40 but I keep it limited to 10 watts for testing. Getting a lens set for producing a tight dot is troubling but I'm getting better !! HM

ME109 --- I'm currently working on the same project with an FAP800. Nasty wide beam..... I'm have some luck getting it kind of under control but that damn 19 dots sometimes won't converge at even 10'. Keep trying ! HM

It glows yellow with a 405 nM but no Geiger counter clicks. HM

You need a Ur marble?

They make good room hearers in the winter ! HM

I hadn't run my LASOS for two years...... Last night, I let the cathode heat for about 8 minutes and she fired right up. Old hot cathode tubes need to heat up before you slip 'em the juice ! HM

My CO2 hand held is only 10 Watts ... It eats 18650 cells fast. HM

I know this thread is old but long ago, i helped a guy on here who said he got his breath to lase. Then, I was using a mix of 10% CO2, 5.6% N2 and 84.4% He. I think I found that in Scientific American back then. HM

Thanks for your help. I ordered one rather than try to build one !!! I may try removing the ball holder but I'll try the adapter first.

The G ball is still affixed. I didn't know about de-canning it What are the options? Mike

RC -- I sent you a "conversation" but I'll try here now. I have a NUBM-06 diode from DTR mounted in a 9 mm housing. Which focus lens will work with that diode's long nose?? Mike

The laser cutters I've seen around here are CO2 or fiber lasers. The cutting tip also has gas assist like a gas cutting torch. SMOOTH cut! Mike

Is the right or left pin + ?

Jordan sells good parts - No problems here. Does the artifact rotate when you turn the lens? That can tell you where the problem is caused.

LiIon cells typically charge to about 4.2 volts when full. 2800 mA HOURS may be a little over rated but can depend on the discharge rate.

Will a Micro flex V5 driver output 600mA to a BDR 209 diode? Mike

I'm building one like it now. What did you use for a driver and lens ?? Thanks - Mike
