    Bugger!! yours are obviously cheap Chinese models, my mate says his Cambridge 50k set is good for 160,000,000 pps.
































    Disclamer:
    My mate does not say that, and if he did.. well I'd call him rude names behind his back, most sounding like "runt".
    No galvo should be pushed to it's limits unless you are not overly bothered about the Glavo itself, or perhaps but not limited to the amp (driver) also.
    "overclocking" your galvos is like trying to obtain 1024Bhp from your Mini Cooper S, Stupid and people will think you're a wanker.

    Dan, don't give up! Contact laserworld, they'll just tell you the smoke is normal, and you are just running in the bearings.

    Do they still work? If not, try a higher voltage. Right to the wall should do it.

    ok, might work for a small low quality beam system but 40USD postage is a bit steep!
