    Man... Did you look at his feedback? Several no item deliverd, MANY slow shippings... I doubt that beast works, and I REALLY doubt if the seller even has a clue if it works. Looks like it might be a good deal, if it works AND you got it after you paid with a check or MO...
    Love, peace, and grease,

    No offence man, but that last thing I would post about in a public forum is something that I want to bid on and I want to win... Call me selfish but, I'd rather be that than...

    Interesting laser, but 500W in a 500ns pulse isn't going to wow an audience. That construction doesn't look capable of a flash repeat rate that could look continuous, and I doubt it would look very bright if it did. More interesting for its own sake, than any display you might try to make with it, probably.

    I looked up the patent in the picture, which lead to another patent, which lead to.....

    3-10 mW average power, 400 hours lifetime , some nice lines though. 60 hz rep rate/
    no exciter in the pics thats just a head.

    Cool, that was exactly the range of average power I thought. Can't prove that now, but tis so. I just didn't want to start assuming similar ratings as for HeNe of similar size and construction though, not knowing enough to do that. I was a bit out on the repeat rate too, my guess had been around 20 Hz. I didn't think of that extremely low lifetime either.
