    Default Viasho 4W 532nm OEM laser module

    Have to sell this head, brand new, never used other than for testing purposes.

    I bought two of these modules last year. Later I bought a proper power meter with enough range, and noticed one head did only 3.3W (the other was fine) so I returned it back to factory, and they sent me a new unit BUT with a brand new shape which is way higher than the one I previously had and designed the projector for (87mm, and I have a max of 83mm inside projector) so unfortunately I have to sell it.

    I measured a bit over 4W, stable after warmup, will post pictures later of my Coherent Fieldmaster measuring output.

    Some measured specs :

    - Power stability over 20min at full power : min 4.01W (cold start), max 4.17W @25°C. Stabilized at 4.10W.
    - Beam diameter @ aperture : around 3.5 mm
    - Beam diameter @ 5.00 meters : 9-9.5 mm, almost a perfect circle
    - Divergence full angle : 1.1 - 1.2 mrad

    This is the same model Viasho sells on eBay here for 4099$, but with the OEM driver instead of lab one, much easier to integrate.

    Comes with the related 5V/12V power supply.

    Price : 3600 USD or 2930€ shipped anywhere in the world.

    Of course if it's sells here, something will go on the janitor's account.

    You can see the OEM driver on top of the power supply :

    After a few minutes warmup, the beast stays a bit higher than 4W.

    I finally found some time to do measurements on this laser, and results are quite good :

    - Power stability over 20min at full power : min 4.01W (cold start), max 4.17W @25°C. Stabilized at 4.10W.
    - Beam diameter @ aperture : 3.5 mm
    - Beam diameter @ 5.00 meters : 9-9.5 mm, almost a perfect circle
    - Divergence full angle : 1.1 - 1.2 mrad

    Well, that 666 number of views of the thread is a sign to tell me that I unfortunately have to decrease a bit the price, lets say 3400$ or 2660€, always shipping included.

    If it's not sold in a few weeks, I will let it to the highest bidder or on eBay, so don't hesitate to send me offers by PM...

    The last one before eBay, don't miss an opportunity to have a brand new, under warranty, with a very good beam quality 4W 532nm for only 2500€ !

    Hi,
    Does this include a driver? Is this suitable for pumping a Ti:Sapphire CW laser? Is it polarized? Thanks, Phil

    Hi, of course it has the full OEM driver included, with analog or TTL modulation, and the 5V/12V power supply. Without display however.
    Modulation input is located on a 15-pole DSub connector, so you can adjust power with an external voltage, or just move the switch of the driver to full power.
    Polarization is >100:1, I haven't measured it exactly but I can if you want, with a PBS cube.

    I don't know anything about how to pump a Ti:Sapphire laser, all I know is that a 532nm laser beam is commonly used...
