    Default 2W Viasho 532nm

    I will probably regret selling this... 2W rated. Has just under 200 hours on it. This is the best modulating Viasho I have had. Not as linear as my 1.5W laserwave (my benchmark for DPSS), but pretty close. Does not like operating under 50deg F. Has reduced output under 50 deg.

    $650 shipped in the US. Shipping to be quoted for international sale.

    Thinking.....

    I'm not happy about the fact it's a Viasho but, I may know soon (if it's still around) if this is something I need.

    Be honest Brad, is there anything you ever don't need?

    Truthfully.... probably most of this laser crap. Ok, so maybe "need" wasn't the correct word in this particular instance. Maybe I should look to a different investment....


    like ... how much for rights to your screen name?




    BTW - check post 29 in the SELEM thread.

    I know. I had another that modulated so poorly it was worthless except for on a mobolazer. I have had this one for about 2 years. Used it a handful of times. Worked great every time. I figure its past its "infant mortality" danger.

    On a Mobolazer is where this would be targeted, if neither one of two Melles I have being looked at are beyond repair.

    Depending on the mobo, I might have a riser made up around here somewhere. If you go the replacement route you might as well ad a 462 diode at the same time for that more argon look. I could fab up a mount that goes in front of the viasho that holds the diode, prisms and dicro.

    I just got two more ML-10's. Both had the infamous 2+ watt Melles Griot on them originally and both were only doing about 300mW. I have somebody investigating if it's any sort of easy fix or if they're scrap. I already have another ML-10 with a 2 watt Melles that's doing fine and I'm trying to end up with twins. If they're not easily fixable, then a DPSS like this may be the way to go.
