Question for any experts on night vision scopes. Most Gen 1,2,3 NV scopes use some IR diode flash light or a 808nm laser for long distance illumination. 808nm is slightly visible. Does anyone know if a longer wavelength like 910nm would work? Would the NV photo tubes register at that...

Hi, I need feedback on an idea I have. Let's say I have a diode that I want to spin on a circular track using something like gold leaf spring contacts for the + and - current supply. This type of design would likely cause tiny glitches in the supply to the diode. Is it possible to safely...

Hi everyone. I finally got my WL Spyder III in the mail. How do I know which version they sent me? The G1 or the G2? I can't tell the difference. Thanks!!!

Hi. So, this is my first real modification. And it's going to be a bit tricky due to space limitations. But, I'm going to give it a go anyway. So, the first post are just pictures of the toy host and the basic disassembly. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Especially surrounding...

Hello everyone. I've really enjoyed reading the nearly endless threads on modifying lasers, flashlights, toys. Anything and everything to play with LASER's. My personal experience started with the simple HeNe laser and worked up to home made NdYAG flash pumped LASER's. If I could expose...

Glad to be here. I'm an amateur laser junky (big suprise). I'm currently working on multiple projects atm. A water cooled 30W CO2 system with beam delivery to my CNC router, a RGB laser light show, and a pulsed ND:YAG (SSY:1 all original electronics!). Anyway, looking forward to tapping your...
