If anyone (CONUS or Canada) is wanting a small price break I am willing to host a GB on these. Hopefully at or less than $200 with free shipping. I would need 10 takers in order to get us a price break as they are aleady about a low as AixiZ can price them, afaik.
PM me and I will keep a list and post a new thread if I get enough to follow thru.

"This is a laser module based on the 445nm famous diode. The power is pre-set to nominal specification at 500mw. As shown, the power output may be adjusted through the power supply blue current pot to higher levels which of which the diode is capable. We will not, however, warranty the unit for this kind of use. Unit size is 30x30x50mm with the power supply 70x35x40mm. 445nm 455nm laser module, Set for 500nm( edit from Hak--I think this is a typo it should be 500mW) adjustable to 1000mw, 12VDC input, OEM ready construction."--end quote
I will check w/AixiZ to see if I can get more info on the pots and the modulation.
I forgot to ask yesterday but I did see that they had at least 10 units on the shelf.
I did ask about the warranty disclaimer and was told that, of course it should not be adjusted up so high that it fails(like over 1W) and thus they said it should be no problem at 1W so they drew the line in the sand at the preset 500 mWs. That does not necessarily mean that you could not get some relief if it failed at 1W or less.
IIRC is does have TEC cooling and for sure active cooling in the form of fans on both the head and the PS. I will confirm the TEC as well. AixiZ is well known for having some of the best Customer Support going. I will personally test every unit gotten for the GB if it happens.

I have a few more showing interest oustside PL but need a few more to do this. Mine stayed quite cool even after 25 min. @ 527mW.
I know these can do more w/o harm but at once harm is done after pot modding AixiZ cannot make good on the 1 yr warranty as they (i am guessing) would not be able to know just how much modding has been done and another member suggests that the TEC is preset to handle the 500+mWs and modding the pots may not be smart.
