ebay galvos quality, worth buying ?

[Experimentonomen]

I plan on getting these for my projector: http://cgi.ebay.com/30Kpps-Laser-gal...item45eec2e360

But i wonder if anyone here have tried these and know if they are any good or if i should stay away from them and get something else, like these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ILDA-Breakout-Br...item1c0d679021

Let me know what you guys think.

Those galvos (first ones) are ok, but u can get them cheaper.
Edit* BTW dont rely on them as 30kpps, mostly they are advertised as 20kpps:

Edit2* second galvos you were asking about are from Laserpic:

What about these ? http://cgi.ebay.com/ILDA-Breakout-Br...item1c0e869294

They are the cheapest i can find, only 20k tho.

Well, depends on where u live, because there is always shipping involved.
Try to contact manufacturers themselfs, and u might get cheaper than over ebay.

U should also not only look for "XX Kpps" look also for max scan angle, depending on what u will be using them for.

I´ll be using them for a laser projector capable of showing both text and animated images, just like those in 300EVIL´s laser meeting videos.
Shipping to sweden where i live on the last one i linked to is 45 dollars, so 119 + 45, so its still below 200 dollars which i think is a sweet deal.

[Heavyen]

I think best choice was yours first galvo you linked.
I still suggest u to contact these two for lower price:
http://www.spacelas.com/galvosoftwares.html or
http://www.phenixtechnology.com/en/p...lb_id=10010001
both offered me those 20kpps for less than 100$ (without shipping)

but u must know you are still far away from Evil300 laserworld 50kpps scanners (downgraded to stable 30kpps).

[Experimentonomen]

I´ll contact these two manufacturers about prices, any tip on which i should especially consider of the 20, 30 and 40kpps models ?

[Heavyen]

Well, read and decide yourself how much are u willing to spend :P

I´ve settled for this one since members here on the forum liked it, and its within my budget.

Good choice. That set has been reviewed here with positive results..

Does anyone here have any experience with the Spacelas 20k scanners? Apparently they can be had for ~$120US shipped if bought directly from them..
