    Default AR Glass?

    I've got a couple projectors that I'm looking to put AR Glass into. From what I understand Edmund's is the place to shop, however I'm wondering which glass would work best for my lasers? I have 2 x 5 watt RGB projectors (2 x 1 watt 655, 1 x 1 watt 532 , 2 x 1 watt 455). According to the sales person I need NT62-609, which is $140ea for a 3.00" x 3.00" square (which is really expensive!)... anybody have experience using their stuff? I'm hoping an NT48-927 for $21.00 would be able to handle things. The salesperson wasn't entirely sure herself.

    Thanks for any help!

    I used the nt48-927 and cut. It up and used it for my 4w red and 5w blue modules
    The remaining peice i will use on the output window of a 12w rgb
    When God said “Let there be light” he surely must have meant perfectly coherent light.

    Howdy FW -

    Yes, the NT48-927 should be just fine, but please see this little article, for some 'helpful tips', since you are using 445..

    http://www.photonlexicon.com/forums/...757#post220757 Also, +1 for 'badger's comment, that's what we do, buy-up a 10" x 12" piece, and cut to-size, as-needed.. Usually, a local glass-shop or picture-framing place, will help you cut it, if yer at all worried about cutting a $65. piece of glass..

    cheers..

    I think I'm just going to order a big piece and cut it as needed, that's a great idea. Thanks for the window tilting tip as well, that's also really good to know. My 445's definitely fall on the short side of that curve...
