    Default Just add 445...

    just added 445 to my rgb and wow!

    got a bit of an important demo next week so need to sort my rgb out.

    so im now running -

    500mw 532nm
    500mw 445nm
    800mw 635-660nm

    ive never seen the colours look so good and this was my 5 colour projector.

    445 rules...

    ive had to turn the 445 down to 90% as it was over powering the green.

    pics to follow when it gets dark

    Thumbs up

    I'd add that 100mW 473 in there just to sharpen some of the blue greens... 1.8Watts and you got to wait unti it gets dark to take pictures...

    no room for 473, i have grand plans for this projector now 445 has come along.

    im thinking 1watt green, 2watts red and 1.5watts 445

    all with nice small beams, not big fat beams

    Really cool Andy. Which Aixiz lens do you mean by standard? Normal plastic? I have some of those brass 200mm red rectangle housing and I am thinking of trying a diode in one of those since. I really don't want to fool around with prisms and other stuff. So, based on what you are seeing, do you think a normal lens is OK for just goofing around at home? That's all I do.
