    Thumbs up

    Hi Slick,
    Nice vids mate!
    Really liked the colours in the second vid.

    "A little party the other weekend with my 5Watt RGB"

    5 Watts?.....Little party?...... Yeesh I think we'll have to call the cops if you have a big party.

    I'm real interested in what lasers and powers you have in this puppy as I'm planing on going for a similar power level.
    Is that 445nm blue you have in their?

    Could this be a first? THIS THREAD IS USELESS WITHOUT WORDS

    Details,details gimy gimy gimy!

    Like your work mate.

    Laser (the acronym derived from Light Amplification by Stimulated Emissions of Radiation) is a spectacular manifestation of this process. It is a source which emits a kind of light of unrivaled purity and intensity not found in any of the previously known sources of radiation. - Lasers & Non-Linear Optics, B.B. Laud.

    im not knocking your show or anything it looks very nice, but you seems to be making pretty patterns no matter what the music is doing.

    speeding up and slowing down with the music has a much better effect. live contorls

    keep up the good work

    Yea, unfortunately I put the show on autopilot for a minute so I could go take a few videos... I wish I had a clone so I could send it out to film for me while I'm running it, but it seems everytime I have someone else take the videos or pics they turn out like crap! lol

    But as for what is in the projector, it has 1.5Watts of 532nm green, 2Watts of 457nm blue, and 1.5 Watts of 635nm Red, with Cambridge 6810P scanners running at 12k... The lasers are CNI, all rated at 1Watt, (they like me and send me hot lasers).... =)

    This is what I had in the other room,



    A pair of 500mW Green and a 300mW green... The show was ok, but not enough turnout and the promoter tried to short me on pay, so I took his Turntables.... (Would have been a good deal, but I already have a pair and really needed the money)lol Same deal here, It was set on Autopilot while I went and took the pics...

    2 watts of 457? That explains it, nice.
    I've been trying to get as much info on 457 as I can.
    Think I'm prob going to go for 445 for simplicity, size and modulation
    but I have to say it's been hard to let go of the urge to buy 457 now that they have gotten more affordable.

    Thanks for sharing.

    McCarrot from on here sells CNI 457nm on his web site. I haven't seen these myself but gather they have nice beam specs and a deep blue colour not disimilar to 445 but with greater luminosity. However, as this is hearsay, I recommend you speak to him.

    Hi White light,
    thanks for the clue. I've been chatting with
    Dave, Phritzler and Dsli_jon. They have been real generous giving me some good perspective on the blues. As much as I want 457, this is my first projector and I've
    taken on board the advice about the simplicity of the 445s.

    Thanks mate.
