PBS Cubes (650 and 473nm) + AR Coated Dichros + Mirror Mount Group Buy

[smogthemog]

Smog PM me. I am in touch with Bridge fairly often (on a daily basis) and I can relay any messages to him.

Oh - just for your information. I am sure he can make those dichros - but they are not a standard product he carries. So either I could add something like it to the group buy -or- you will have to order a bunch for yourself!

Ok Max, thanks. I only need one but if it is going to be a problem then I will just move my red diode and get by it that way mate.

I have, from left to right, my blue then red then green and my scan set is too the left. I have the mirror for the green at the end and also the reflect blue/pass red green but just needed a reflect red/pass green dichro. If i swap the red LD for the green LD position then I have everything I need

I think that is what I will have to do.

Haha transformations like that always seem so simple in writing. I underwent a simple change like that about a month ago. My projector is STILL in pieces!

Oh well - soon it will be the incredible projector it was designed to be

Thanks for the GB Max.

Does anyone have a direct email address to Bridge? I asked him a week ago now, via email link at the bottom of one of his post, about a 15mm Dichro to fit these mounts that reflects red and passes green but have heard nothing back from him as of yet.

I also filled out the webform on their website and got a reply 3 weeks later but having sent my reply back to them on the same day (last Thursday), I have heard nothing from that either

Boo hoo

Hi Boo hoo,
sorry for the mail problem, I still not received any letters from you, sorry.
yes, we really con product the dichroic mirror that you want, only problem this is not our standard products, we need a litte quantity to do it, as you know, coating is not cheaper.
Just put here what you want or tell Max what you want,he is just the nice man who always want to help you. if we had a lot people interesting and want, sure we can do it for all of you , although each one maybe only need one pcs, nothing is impossible.
Best regards!
Bridge

No problem Bridge, thanks for the reply.

If others are interested in this type of dichro and we can get a few orders on the cards for you then I am still interested but I don't want to place a sole order for them if you can't provide individual dichro's.

I will just have to move my red LD on the base plate as mentioned previously.

Again, thanks for the email and the reply on here

I am one of these people Max that waits until I have got everything together for the job until I attempt anything. I have little space to work in, my conservatory, so I have to be very lean with what I have all over the place in bits - - - Plus I have a 14 month little daughter that is into EVERYTHING that daddy 'plays' with!!!!

Bless

Just an update - the 2nd shipment is in! LOTS of the new style 3-Axis Mounts and PBS Cubes (and extras if you still need some)! Those of you that have been waiting - the wait is over

Also later tonight or tomorrow morning I will let you guys have a sneak preview of the 3-Axis PBS Cube Mount

Hmm, just got mine, woohoo!

One thing though, I had someone pull out their red laser pointer and the white light goggles didnt seem to block it much at all. That pointer just listed a range of frequencies from 630-680nm, so I went and found another one that just said 650nm. That one did seem to diminish more significantly, however it sure didn't seem like 1% as listed in these specs:

White Light goggle specs
Safeguard Wavelength - 473, 532, 635 and 650nm
OD = 3 @ 532nm
OD = 2 for other wavelengths
Transmission Percent ≤ 1%

I'll have to try a power meter when I get home, but I'm worried.

[smogthemog]

Yep, unfortunately mine are the same.
The red is hardly touched.

Thats odd I wonder if its a manufacturing mistake. Tocket experienced a similar problem but Bridge had sent him the green only pair by accident. When tocket told me about the issue I pulled a random pair out and tested it as well and the amount of light that passed was very small. Maybe Bridge can chime in here. We'll sort this out somehow.
