So I ended up buying the Norseld copper bromide that was for sale here awhile back. The tube that was in it was poisoned by an arch corroded anode. It still would laser, but it sputtered a lot. The system came with two extra tubes that still have plenty of life. Bypassed all the interlocks and aligned the new tube, it's putting out close to 3 watts at the moment. One amazing thing i noticed is that when the tube is heating up the various copper wells begin vaporizing at different times, until they all come up to temp. It looks like a different colors of sherbet ice cream. I also removed the bounce mirror for the fiber coupler since this laser won't be doing anymore skin treatments Apologies for my messy shop, Im in the process of reorganizing.
