    Learn From Mistakes That Can Happen To Anybody...

    I make lasers using a regular plastic box, not a flashlight housing. My first laser died because of a bad construction - the switch contacts accidentally touched the heatsink of LM317...So, when building a new laser, I put an isolation tape on switch contacts, just to be sure it will never...

    Mixing 445nm and 650nm

    I have tried to mix 405nm and 650nm and I got magneta color. But it was just pointing two lasers at the same place.

    Buying: A complete ruby laser head

    Yes he sent me some pictures, but these are not pictures of the stuff I will get, but the same kind of laser head and goggles. He says his camera is broken, so I am waiting until he gets some camera to take a photo of my stuff.

    Buying: A complete ruby laser head

    Hi guys, it seems like I am getting Nd:YAG head from some guy from Germany. He sent me the photo, it looks like SSY head, but he said it is german laser and it may have a power of 3MW. I am also getting goggles, a KTP crystal and everything I will need to make it work from him. It all will cost...

    Buying: A complete ruby laser head

    It is very possible that my brother will travel to the USA next week. Is there any way to get some SSY-1 (or some other) head to the Slovakia without a risk? EDIT: My brother will not go anywhere :( So I am still searching for a worldwide shipping.

    Buying: A complete ruby laser head

    I found these rods as soon as they appeared, before you put the links here. But I don't know how to make a ruby laser, that's why I was asking for a complete laser head. Even if I managed to make a laser head, I know nothing about pulse forming networks. That large rod looks really good, but...

    Buying: A complete ruby laser head

    No, I have not...but I'm not loosing my hope and I keep searching and waiting for someone to respond :)

    Buying: A complete ruby laser head

    thanks for the link, I know $300 is not very much for such a laser, but I am sure I can pay more, if it is not enough for someone :)

    Buying: A complete ruby laser head

    Hi, I want to buy a ruby laser head (as the title says). I want it good and fully functional, so that I will not have to buy anything else to make it work (ruby rod, flash lamp, mirrors, pulse forming network, etc.). I am offering $300 for it. If you are interested, send me a PM. :yh:

    High power Nd:YAg or ruby laser

    That looks great, I will ask him about it :)

    High power Nd:YAg or ruby laser

    Ok, thank you for your help. I will try to find something.

    High power Nd:YAg or ruby laser

    A non-working laser head is a good option, but I would need to know what exactly I have to buy to make it functional. Could you please find some flashlamp for ->THAT-> laser head and a power source for that lamp? Thanks.

    High power Nd:YAg or ruby laser

    So it is illegal to export ragefinder lasers? Well, this is a disappointment. That laser head from your link looks good, but it has no flashlamp, and I have no idea what flashlamp I have to use to make it working. Also, I will need a power supply (PFN and HV circuit, as you wrote). Thanks, I...

    High power Nd:YAg or ruby laser

    Thanks for a reply. Yes, I also think a laser head would be the best for me. But where can I get one? This looks good, and the price is also nice:->LINK<- But these are only available for USA customers, and I am from Europe. The pulses are very short, but it is better than nothing. They also...

    High power Nd:YAg or ruby laser

    Hi all, I would like some info about these lasers. The power of laser I want should be several kilowatts, and pulse duration more than 1ms. I know about some SSY-1 laser head sold on ebay, but they don't ship it out of USA, and pulse lasts only few nanoseconds (if I read right). Can someone tell...

    Some info about this IR diode?

    geohal: That sounds good, I will try it :)

    Some info about this IR diode?

    Thanks for reply. I am thinking about using my 18V 3A transformer, could it handle the diode? Also, it is not filtered, nor stabilised. If I make a good circuit, can I power the diode with this? Also, I would like to know how to make a high-power dummy diode. And is there LM317 that will not...

    Some info about this IR diode?

    Thanks for reply. I have decided to build a driver first. I tried to search, but I did not find anything useful for me...Is there some good schematic? As I said, it doesn't have to be powered by a battery. Also, what does "multimode" mean? What are "modes" of these diodes? And where can I get...

    Some info about this IR diode?

    billg519: Thanks for answer, you helped me :)...so, I think I will buy some good Anti-IR goggles first, and I will start building a laser after that...I don't need any complex battery powered driver, I would be also very happy with a lab-style laser, which also means the housing for a diode...
