    Throws check book away into a pit of fire. Damn that's like a super crazy deal. These run on 440 right? I wouldn't know where to get that kind of power but this would make such a nice addition to my lair.

    "And yes, they can-be run off 208-220V, with a 'boost-transformer' (if you don't have 480V) ..just at a higher-amp draw.."

    you know you want one.

    suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

    Well..... "twice" in a lifetime in my particular case. Had I not chickened out in the final couple seconds, I'd already own these puppies. I've kicked my ass more than once over that. I think Jon should sell one pair and give me the others as backup and, a reward for my undying patience. It's just a little more space necessary in the truck... 'tis all. And...since they "can't" stay in Rochester, right?? LOL

    The timing would coincidentally be perfect.

    Jon...
    Have you been very very bad?
    These aren't the Grand Coule Dam lasers are they?
    If they are...?! Bad(!) No Christmas presents for you.
    If they aren't... ?! Bad(!) No Christmas presents for you.

    Do not pass go, do not collect $200.
    - There is no such word as "can't" -
    - 60% of the time it works every time -

    Just do it. 9 watts of krypton is enough too make the deal.

    Nyet. but, they are the same type used, and, similar beam-characteristics... So, to answer your 'question', Yes, they'll work just fine at your local giant dam, too..

    Indeed, that is the bloody problem these days, isn't it?

    Indeed, Sire, if I had already owned these beauties, I'm sure this would have been a PM vs a post.. Even-tho the thought of adding *more* power for your fiber-heads is tantalizing, even for me to contemplate-suggesting... (..those fibers can take at least 20W CW, - each, so... ..but, rebuilding the color-stage and adding more complexity, (..and build-time / delay.. is not-something I'd be quick to propose...

    ...then again, we have-not really discussed your *rooftop* at all, now, have we? jk..

    Will be in touch, asap, to get things slated - finally - on your end.. And yes - Thank You for not having me killed...
    Hope you have a good one...
