    Do I need a lens?

    I've offered to build him a 501b as I have two sitting around. And I think we decided 445 with a 3e lens to match the blue anodized host. We will see though

    Do I need a lens?

    Yes you need a lens. Get a 3 element glass for beam specs or a G2 glass lens for up to 30% power increase with a sacrifice of divergence. I like both depending on the l applications. Also I think acrylic lenses have the best specs for producing a nice tight beam and keeping divergence down but...

    Dragon Lasers 589nm 50mw Handheld

    Mine takes IMR and ICR cells. Is your tail cap lead recessed a bit? My AW ICR has no button on th e positive end which would explain why yours doesnt take them. If the tail cap isn't the same. What other reason could there be? Does your ICR have a button?

    Dragon Lasers 589nm 50mw Handheld

    Mine runs on IMR and ICR cells. Weird yours doesnt. Does your ICR not have a button like mine? That could be why if your tail cap lead is recessed a bit.

    Dragon Lasers 589nm 50mw Handheld

    I HIGH suggest getting in on this GB of you have the funds. The laser is amazing has a flawless tem00 beam and is over spec. And its dirt cheap for a 589nm laser. If you pass th is up you'll end up paying 700+ when DL stock runs out. Probably $1000 actually. Didn't realize th is GB was done...

    Arcane 445nm 2.8W from Thejoker301

    Can someone embed a video for me? It's 455nm lighting a cold.candle in like 4 seconds. That requires 3w minimum but when turned on it runs 3.5w til stabilizing. Edit: the diode lases at 452nm at 2ampz. Is it safe to assume at 2.4 amps it is 455nm or better? Visible color difference and with a 3...

    Your favourite blue?

    488 is actually quite green. 470 ish to my eye is sky blue 445 has violet in it, but my newest laser spectro d at 455 and that to me is the truest blue no violet but also no green either. It's new so maybe that is why it's my favorite. Lol

    Be careful. Heat takes time to move through materials. The outside of the heatsink may not be warm but the diode you can bet is. Especially be cautious if the module has no thermal paste.

    WTB: Best Laser(s) for $200?

    Also, I will build you a 501b wi th the diode you want and allow you to pay after it is finished and I test it for reliability and you'd only need to pay for the module. I've got the host and won't charge for my time as I am far from the best builder here. If it ever breaks I will repair for...

    WTB: Best Laser(s) for $200?

    If you want a diode laser I'd go with a 405. For 200 bucks you can have a 700mW+ 405nm inside custom host. Also 405nm burns the best per mw. For solid state I can say a 532 from laserbtb would be best bet. Bad reviews lately but they have the nicest hosts I think. The PL ones have a locking...

    170mw 520nm handheld $200! batteries & charger included!

    Re: 200mw 520nm handheld $180! batteries & charger included! I'll pay 100 and throw in 2 501b and a nx-50 host. The latter host has an known lens but most likely acrylic and has 3 o rings around all threaded parts. Proven waterproof at 1 foot for 1 minute. Copper 9mm heatsink included. It has...

    Need help diagnosing 450nm laser

    Goodluck though it hurts my feelings when my lasers do not work as expected.

    Need help diagnosing 450nm laser

    Easy enough to assess diode damage. Check raw output with out lens and meter it aswell.

    Honest opinion on Laserbtb.

    Personally my new laser site is DragonLasers. Theh are CNI resellers so you get good quality lasers, and shipping is normally very fast. 8 days for my last purchase. To clarify that means I had my laser within 8 days total. Not business days. It was at my door 8 days after buying. It rode the...
