Im looking for a 100-150mW green laser preferably with some safety/lock on the host. I already have a pair of glasses for 532nm/445nm Green & Blue. This would be a step up from my 75 green and a 175 WL red.
Preferably conUS.
 





Have you heard anything about them getting pulled by customs. I live in Oregon if that means anything. It doesn't appear that they refund if it does.
 
I don't believe so. I've seen sites like DX and such crap get pulled but not many if any from Lazerer. It's always a risk though. The way to look at it is, it's possible from anywhere.

So if I ordered from China and the laser spotted by custom. Will they confiscate it or they just return to the vendor? I ordered one form Laserpointer.com few weeks ago because the website stated they are in New yOrk but until Ipaid, it turned out tht they are in China and witht he tracking number they provided, it's appeared that the laser is stucked at custom for a week now. Can I request for refund if it never go through?
 
Depends on the company and their policy. If it shipped to the US, they are not responsible for what customs does to it.

Some companies like Lazerer give a partial refund and potentially credit to be used again, but some don't. Take a look at their policy and it should tell you.
 
alright thanks. I think I'll just see if someone has the time so I also wouldn't have to wait over a month.
 
Talk to some of the veteran builders here. Depending on what price you're willing to pay, they make some GREAT looking lasers.

You can also buy all the components without fear and build it yourself.
You will be proud of what you can do☺ Others have learned here.
Buying a custom is like taking up fishing but not wanting to learn how
to tie a knot or bait a hook. This is a hobby FGS...........

Sometimes some people just need a custom laser ;) or don't have time. Unfortunately that plagues so many people, not having enough time to take up their hobbies or interests.
 
i guess i just dont think i know enough about building one to where i think i might need more tools than i have. What besides a host would i need if i bought a diode w/ driver?
 
Greens are extremely easy.

Buy a complete module (either an online vendor, or from NexBox on the forums).

Fit it inside a host, find a battery, and enjoy.
 
Obviously, if you want it to run for a while... you should figure a way to heatsink it. Buy a host + heatsink combo if you can't make your own.... you should be fine.

Also be careful, some modules are made to accept 3.0V batteries and others, 3.7V...
