nice link , will save it , but think i still have a way to go before i start doing mods , also will that work on just 1 laser or a group ?
cheers

I would not call it a mod, it's a pre built board that you just need to add the connectors to and put in a box or in a laser.

1 for each laser that you want to control, same for any DAC (well almost, there are ways to control pairs of laser of one DAC).

I found the Laserworld laser you have and it does have DMX, but you will still have different patterns on that from the other one.

A lot of the built in patterns are a bit "cheesy" on nearly all lasers that have them. Sometimes you get a nice suprise and get a few quite good "beam show" patterns.

The way to go is to get a proper DAC and software to create and run your own designed shows and/or other peoples shows.

Power Meters are very expensive. Best to get along to a UKLEM Meet and ask someone if they can test it for you there. Several members have meters.
