    Starting A laser Business

    Okay You clearly have a problem with me. I don't get what it is... But.. In the most eloquent terms I can muster... I don't give a **** what you think. I am going to do something worthwhile. More worthwhile than e-stalking people on a laser forum. (kinda sad, if you think about it) I'll get...

    Au contraire. FINISHED lasers over 5mW are banned from SALE. My the lasers I'm planning on selling are not finished. They still require some assembly.

    1 Watt Blue Laser Heatsink

    Thanks! I'll put a photo of my finished laser in my signature (First class IV, so proud of myself :D) And it'll fit. I specifically designed everything to fit inside the casing of a standard 12mm Aixiz.

    Starting A laser Business

    Firstly, My forum name comes from a PC game I enjoy (Spore, EA, 2006) I've used this name in a bunch of different places, and you're the first one to find something strange about it. And I have no idea what that picture is supposed to be.... Secondly, I live in Texas.

    Infrared lasers are not dangerous as they say?

    Laser Accident Database Case: Year: Country: 7934 1999 Israel Woman deliberately stared into a commercial class 2 laser pointer for approximately 10 seconds. The patient's best-corrected visual acuity was 20/40, and she had two small pericentral scotomata, as well as a hypopigmented...

    Starting A laser Business

    Hey Everyone! Okay, to start off with: I live in a small town >100k people, and there is NOWHERE within 100 miles that you can get "laser stuff". I've also noticed a not-insignificant demand among the local community for a local "laser shop" if you will. If I sell, everything will be...

    These are the Laws I think should be in place for lasers in the US

    "When fear is eliminated, there is equality" O_O In any case, there is an important lesson of human psyche to consider: If a man goes to a karate class, and becomes a black belt, he does not simply kill his wife in a fit of sudden rage. The discipline required for him to achieve his black...

    1 Watt Blue Laser Heatsink

    I found this on CajunLasers after noticing the "Page 2" button :D Would it work?

    1 Watt Blue Laser Heatsink

    Wow... that's incredibly expensive.... :) So, can you recommend some sites that sell host/heatsink kits? I've already seen CajunLasers (not exactly the styles I like), any others like it?

    1 Watt Blue Laser Heatsink

    Any flashlights with heatsinks that are ready to use out-of-the-box?

    1 Watt Blue Laser Heatsink

    When I said "stock", I meant the one that came with the Ultrafire :D So, it would be worth it to get a custom heatsink? EDIT-------------- Can I use any of the pre-made ones instead of getting custom?

    1 Watt Blue Laser Heatsink

    I'm using an Ultrafire WF-503c Is the stock heatsink enough? Especially since I'll be firing the laser in short bursts....

    1 Watt Blue Laser Heatsink

    The laser parts are on order from ebay, so I don't have a pic yet :( THIS is the link to what my module will be when I finish assembling it. As for measurements, it's all contained in a standard Aixiz housing

    1 Watt Blue Laser Heatsink

    Oh, and also, I can't use one of those "box" heatsinks, as this laser needs to be portable.

    1 Watt Blue Laser Heatsink

    Hey everyone! I've built myself a 1 watt blue laser with: Aixiz Laser housing and appropriate glass lens 445 nm 1 watt laser diode Microboost Driver I'm wondering what kind of heatsink I should use. I plan to fire the laser for short bursts only <60 secs. Is THIS one good, or should I get THIS

    Need Help!

    Thanks for the advice. However, I'm nervous about building the actual laser myself, so I'd prefer to get the module pre-assembled. I understand your advice about trying to stick to visible lasers, but IR lasers seem to come quite a bit cheaper for their output. Also, couldn't you just attach a...

    Okay, so I'm building my first laser, and I wanted to start out with something easy(ish). (Yes, I know what I'm doing, and will be safe) :D I found these laser modules on eBay, and I wanted to know if they actually work or are just a cheapo Chinese scam. Here And Here And Here So, if...
