Oh, what the hell...
Put me down for two of these dichros, please!
Adam
With pleasure Adam :) Each order counts as we are not that far from the 20 pcs...

Hehe nice guys! If you're serious we reached the 20 pcs so the group buy will happen! Thanks to all :) :) :)
Just waiting on the last confirmation and group buy is go :) CountFunkula if you read this, please check you PM box...
I'll take one please!
Hi everybody
Group buy is finalizing so I started contacting peoples about payment details. I would be grateful if you would be reactive to this as there is a non-negligible manufacturing delay (30-35 days), so the earlier I collect money, the faster we can order and the faster we receive dichros, thanks in advance!
:)
Sebastien
send me a thing telling me how much i owe. i'll cover paypal fees. ;)Quote:

And a big thanks to Sebastian for putting this together! (Can't wait to play with the new dichros...)
Adam
This is just a little reminder for payment to the remaining peoples, as we are approaching payday :D

Any news on this ?:question:Quote:

Do you have an update? Are you still waiting for people to pay?

+ 1 .....etc.etc,
Cheers :)
Well the dichros should be soon there :) Sorry for the lack of updates recently.
Only one person hasn't yet paid his 4 dichros (you can see the summary on the first post) but that hasn't affected the order as we reached the 20 pcs anyway.
Even the few "late" peoples to pay haven't delayed the order because Phil (Live-Lasersystem) was kind enough to order the whole lot before receiving the total amount, he paid in advance for us so kudos to him! Actually the GB were happening through Phil as he made all the research and contacts to find the best deal, I was "just" the organiser here.
So, I will update here when I get more news, stay tuned ;)
Sebastien
Any news?

And all I hear is crickets and cicadas chirping...
Any News?

That means it's summer and it's great :DQuote:

Sebastien
Guys the dichros are to be posted to your homes tomorrow morning :)
Below are already the results of the coating inspection record. Results are good, reflection 97% @465nm and 95% @462nm, transmission >92% @445nm.
I can't wait to finish my 12W mixed blue setup >:)

Just in time to fry the "crickets and cicadas"! >:)
Cheers :)
Cicadas here live on a 17 year cycle, only coming to the surface to mate and die for two weeks. We have say three groups on different cycles.
The big, crunchy, Cicadas have passed on to eternity, their offspring now underground, and their remains swept off the sidewalks and parking lots.
No one is stepping on them now, and shoes are cleaner...The loud chirping of millions of bugs is over.. Till we meet them again..
Steve
:cat:
Oh sh*t ... I stand corrected. *retardo
So not quite in time to fry cicadas after all :o
Cheers :)
Arrived today. Thanks!

Nice to hear!Quote:

Thankfully it came straight through.
Steve
I haven't even taken them out of the package yet. I don't think I even have a 462 diode yet. But I have a couple hundred bucks tied up in fingernail sized bits of glass for when that day comes! (STUPID hobby!)Quote:

Anyway they will fit in a coffin with no bother at all, ...so you can always "take them with you"! >:)
Cheers :)
PS. @ "Some one should tell the Austrians that their declaration has "TMI" issues" ........I think you just did !:cool:
Attachment 50390 Waket wakey Phil !
I've got projectors with 462 already built in but, I don't think I've actually bought a raw diode. There will be plenty of space in the coffin for stuff since I'm only 5' 3". :rolleyes:
:cat:
Just noticed your "sale" thread Brad, you could pass on the dichro there with no bother ..... anyway I assume from your recent posts that Jordi has a new client in the bag, so you might even get a part exchange deal from him. ! >:)
Cheers :)
That IS a thing of beauty. I haven't PM'ed to inquire about a price yet. Not sure I want to know but, if would be quite the cool thing to take to SELEM!
:cat:
That's precisely what I think HE should do ! >:)
Better start typing PDQ ...I don't spose these new versions will last very long either.*vigil
Cheers :)
I received my dichros today. Thanks Sebastian!
Adam
The one in the pics sold today to a local show company so, the soonest I'd have one is the end of August. It's not going to be an inexpensive proposition. I may have to continue to admire the pictures.

Hi PL people,
Got mine and did a quick test.
Pass 445nm, in 2030mW out 1960mW (3.4% loss);
Reflect 462nm, on 2130 out 2084mW (2.16% loss).
Nice!
Thank you Sebastien.
Ruslan
mine has also arrived. this is amazing considering the super sketchy post office where i live.
thank you!
Mine arrived as well. Thank you!
:cat:
@ "super sketchy" ........Spanish postal system is cr*p...O_o
Lord knows where mine has got to........ probably wandering around Madrid somewhere from one sorting office to different sorting office, while they figure out which province to send it to next. *vigil
Cheers :)
Finally received mines :) Well actually they were waiting on me at the post office since I was on holidays...
They seems to work pretty good, it's quite amazing to see a blue beam passing through while another blue beam a few nanometers away being reflected ;)
But take care they are very angle sensitive, must be the closest possible to 45° !
