Laser-Wave Dichro review

[allthatwhichis]

The is the long delayed review of Laser-Wave's new dichros. I have a set of reflect red, pass green and reflect blue, pass yellow. This was done on an Andover Holography laser power meter on a quick rebuild of ghettofabulous.. mark 4 or 5. There is room for angle tuning that I feel would bring the results up a bit.

My initial results show:
Reflect blue
105.55->102.69 = 97.29% reflect for blue
256.1->245.6 = 95.9% transmit red
77.34->74.21 = 95.95% transmit green

Reflect red
260->256.1 = 98.5% reflect red
88.18->77.34 = 87.7% transmit green

Red reflected off one dichro and through one dichro, 245mW




Green through two dichros, 74mW




Blue reflected off one dichro, 102mW.




Red reflected off one dichro, 256mW.




Green through one dichro, 77mW.




Blue full power 105mW.




Red full power 260mW.




Green full power 88mW.

mmkay? how much were the lasers putting out before the optics?

I hit submit accidently before I got most of the post typed. Hit F5...

lol ok gotcha, nice, I already bought the edmunds dicrhos for my rebuild but its nice to see the newer laserwave dichros seem to have increased in quality quite a bit
