Sanwu Lasers - Offical thread

Thanks for that info I didn’t know any of that. The hornets were buzzing around my kid and I didn’t know they were good for much of anything. I wanted to avoid spraying poison on my hizzle

One thing that can be done to keep them away is to paint places where wasps and hornets nest blue it mimicks open sky. That was a way to keep such critters away before pesticides.
Such critters only build their nests under protected from the elements places.

Is Sanwu okay? No email response in a week, been 24 days since ordering and no tracking info received.

Hey dude,

I have 8 Sanwu lasers and I love them all. Which one did you buy? I torched a hornet nest from 10 feet away with my blue one recently.

Hello guys, I was hoping to get some advice.

I’m going to order a laser Ranger from Sanwu, probably the 2 watt green. I really like the stone washed hosts, but there are so many to choose from that I can’t decide.

Can anyone share a cool build? I’m not sure if I’m going to spend the extra money to get a large number of tritiums, but who knows?

Also another question… If I get a blue instead, would the flashlight adapter fit or do I need some sort of adapter?

Could anyone share some experiences they’ve had with the flashlight adapter? I have several “white laser” flashlights but the idea of powering them with a high powered blue laser is very intriguing to me.

Thanks!

I just ordered the flashlight adapter for my sanwu 7.5 watt 445nm laser. Can anyone tell me what the lumen/candela output would be rated at? Thanks.

A conservative value is around 30lm/W conversion into white light. So around 225lm. The efficiency is all down the quality of the phosphor and the conversion of the input wavelength. Optimised phosphors can hit as high as 210lm/W, but this won't get anywhere near that.

Sanwu do advertise the with 700lm for 5W and 1000lm for 7W 445nm, and 10w as the maximum power.

This would be 140lm/W, not sure if true

The conversion efficiency if true is quite high. But not unrealistic. You would hope with that much 445nm going into the phosphor you would get more than 225lm tbh. But that is the lowest I can perceive to be true. My worry would have to be thermal management if the phosphor wasn't that efficient.
