I'm on my 3rd Krypton this year after having to return 2 previous units. Kryptons #1 and #2 were "within spec" and had +800mW averages over 5 minutes. However, both crapped out after only a few hours of total use. Krypton #1's peak power dropped to <200mW and Krypton #2's warm-up time...

Just received this beast from yobresal and got so very close to 3W after chilling it down to 38 °F on my windowsill...

I bought an +800mW Krypton from SRESAL and Cyparagon last Christmas via this forum, but it crapped out this summer and I thought I'd be stuck with a <200mW Krapton. :cryyy: I got in touch with Jeice from Wicked Lasers a couple weeks ago and she was able to promptly get this replacement shipped...

Uh oh, I must have gotten some debris on my 445nm diode's window because a dot was melted into the center. :cryyy: The beam profile got totally messed up from the melted center and I decided to break the window by stabbing it with a mechanical pencil tip. To my surprise, that seemed to fix the...

I've been waiting the past few weeks for yobresal to build me a 2W laser with an Eghemus host and it finally came today. This is by far the coolest looking and most powerful laser I have owned so far! One more LPM graph with a freshly charged battery... The diode seems to output a...

This is the Krypton that I recently bought from SRESAL and Cyparagon. Definitely not a 1W laser, but I suppose I got a pretty good deal for $500. First LPM test taken at 70 degrees... Second test taken after a 5 minute cool down period...

Just found this gem on youtube!

My arm hurts after watching all of these armbars.

I was curious about any IR leakage in my greenies, so I shined them through a diffraction grating and viewed the pattern through a night vision camera. I didn't see anything unusual with my lower powered greenies, an 80mW CNI PGL III-A and a Nova X150. However, I did see additional dots with...

Gray from Jetlasers took the time to create this LPM video of the PL-D I just ordered. Pretty cool customer service if you ask me... :D I heard DHL shipping is crazy fast and hopefully it arrives by the end of the week.

I'm surprised after all these years, the Hercules is still the only handheld greenie with an internal fan to give it a true unlimited duty cycle. I've always wanted a Hercules but could never afford one. I remember a couple years ago the Hercules 800 was selling for an outrageous $12K. It...

I recently bought a {1.9W Sparkler} which shorted out with <15 minutes of use. After the seller refused to repair it for free and give me any price quotes for replacement parts, Flaminpyro was kind enough to diagnose it for free and replace any parts at cost. Flaminpyro ended up rebuilding the...

Yesterday I bought a 1.8A laser from another LPF member (who shall remain anonymous until this gets resolved). I met up with him in person and verified the output with my LPM over a couple of minutes. As soon as I got home, I did another 10 minute test with my LPM thinking it wouldn't be a...

I was lucky enough to snag one of his last copper builds and the power of the little monster is mind-blowing! Uploaded with ImageShack.us

According to their forum, Wicked Lasers will be releasing a 1W greenie soon. Anyone else think this will be another underspec POS like the Arctic? :umbrella:

Finally got my Kenometer Pro and this is the power output over 5 minutes... :D Uploaded with ImageShack.us

This RPL-325 is 4 years old but I've barely used it at all. I just checked the power output with a Coherent Lasercheck and it averages 300-350mW for several minutes after a brief warmup. Divergence is <1.0 mrad. Will include a Tenergy 2600 mAh battery and charger. Asking for $350 + shipping...
