Time to test my newest garden decoration laser. A more powerful class 3R unlike the others in class 2. Or is it? I will explain the different laser classes and test if it truly is stronger or yet another mislabeled laser.

Even weak lasers could cause damage. Even though class 1 lasers are safe, if taken out of its original component, it could be dangerous. Any classes above that could still cause eye damage through unmomentary exposures (class 2-3r) and momentary exposures (3b and 4) 3bs may be safe at low levels, but you should always wear goggles for class 3b and 4 lasers.

I've been a hobby laser fan since my first helium neon laser in the early 90's salvaged from a supermarket barcode scanner. Paid a fortune for a green laser a few years later. Now do laser shows using RGB laser systems that can easily put out 8w into a white beam using all 3 colours. My last eye test, the optician asked if my job involved lasers, as I have a small spot in my right retina that has damage. I can only see it on bright sunny days if I turn my head quickly, I can see a small black speck for a slight moment. SO even if you're very careful, you can still get a flash from a reflection and not notice at the time.

Laser rating does change some with the beam power density. For example, a fat beam laser using a beam expander, spreads what used to be a 1mm Beam into about a 5mm beam. The beam makes a great visual effect in fog or haze, but is both much more skin and eye safe as the power density is much lower and the larger beam illumines much more of the fog or haze in the air. This is often used in theatrical laser beam effects for concerts. The laser pumping the beam may be a class 4 laser expanded to a 10mm beam, greatly reducing the damage it can cause on skin or to the eyes as most of the energe does not enter the pupil, so the power that enters the pupil is greatly reduced by the spread beam. They are much safer than the same power in a very small diameter beam. For example a normal small beam 50mW laser would be a class 4 laser, but expanded to a fat beam, the power density is reduced for a device rating of Class IIIb. Google green Fat Beam Laser Module for examples. Some garden lasers are rated for the total laser power, for the laser contained, however when split many times with a diffraction grating, the individual beams very often fall into class I or class II laser products. Keep this in mind when ordering garden lasers.

@sabotage3d Жыл бұрын

Do you know after diffraction grating how much power is lost for each dot? I ask because kids are playing with 100mw green lasers with diffraction grating lenses and pointing them other kids. I wonder how big is the danger when the beam is not that focused.

@isettech Жыл бұрын

@@sabotage3d That would be something to ask the manufacture. The center beam is the brightest and the highest hazard. Some pointers are very small and thus high power density. The safer ones have a beam diameter greater than 3mm, and is typically 5mm. If it makes tiny spots, watch out.

Fist of all, well done videos im enjoying to watch. Second thing I was hesitating to point out, is the fact, that you simply can't compare the output power of a laser to any class. This you all might agree with, and we saw in the video, the optical output power differs from cheap lasers. Then you always have to calculate the minimal spot diameter of the laser by a direct hit into the iris. This is why the information "typical power" is garbage. Take cautions when handling frequency doubled lasers, as they can emit quite a strong amount of optical radiation no blinking reflex covers your eyes. ...but, keep it fun and more important keep on !

Question: what kind of magnet would you recommend for magnet fishing? I'm sure you have heard of it but if not it's where you tie a magnet on the end of a rope and throw it into a river or lake. Then slowly bring it back to shore. You are hoping the magnet attaches to something valuable that someone dropped or threw in the water. You also retrieve a lot of junk so it's cleaning the body of water you are at which is a plus. So it needs to be strong enough to dislodge something heavy from mud but small enough to throw.

A few months ago I picked up a $15 laser show like this for indoors (with fan) and if the specifications are to be believed, it uses a pulsed 50mw green and 200mw red. It's definitely pulsed and definitely bright, with no infrared filter. I'm not 100% sure the green is a DPSS beam, however, since the package size is so small (smaller than the thinnest pen-style green pointers. I'm just so much out of the loop with laser tech, I didn't think you could get a green 50mw direct diode for under $20 ?

@brainiac75 3 жыл бұрын

I'm not an expert on it, but I believe it uses a peltier element/thermocouple to generate an electric current. The laser heats the element on one side and the heatsink around the power head cools the element on the other side. This temperature difference generates an electric current. The more power the laser emits, the more the element is heated and the stronger the electric current. The shown model will handle up to 20 watts if all of the sensor area is used. 20 watt focused down to a small spot would probably damage the sensor's coating... Thanks for watching!

@Basement-Science 3 жыл бұрын

@@brainiac75 I'm guessing it would have to be a coated copper plate with some thickness on the front mounted to the peltier device. Or maybe even a little vapor chamber to distribute the heat even better. Peltier elements cant tolerate terribly high temperatures and their surface is normally a ceramic plate, which isn't great for distributing heat from a single point.

True, but in this case there is a double-axis diffraction grating in front of the lasers so distance matter.

Yeah, maybe they started with typing 3R on the packaging and changed the number after seeing the laser manufacturer had a sticker with class 2 on the laser. The labeling is not controlled by anyone but the manufacturer itself. Never trust it ;) Thanks for watching!

Another thing that is even more of a hazard now are the newer cheaper green laser pointers on eBay. They don't have a current regulating driver so when you slap in a lithium ion they hit 100mw easily. It's sad but also kind of impressive that they are so cheap and yet able to take the abuse. The more I see these cheap overspec laser products the more I fear more and more restrictions will be mandated. Glad you and others inform people because it cuts down on possible misuse and injury.

Also it is not a mistake, you are indeed getting 1064 from the ND:YVO4 which has made it past the KTP output coupler.

Maybe you need to quadruple the distance between the laser and your aperture? Because your aperture has 4x the area of the aperture they test against.

@brainiac75 3 жыл бұрын

Could be. My logic just was that the 7 mm aperture is probably to mimic the eye's pupil. A beam divergent enough to fill out a 7 mm pupil at 14 mm distance, would fill out a 15 mm pupil at roughly 30 mm distance. I probably just should make my own 7 mm aperture and place it at 14 mm distance and have the laser power meter's sensor behind it :) Thanks for the input and watching!

These things make me nervous. A family friend has one of these in their front garden pointed at the house, sometimes the beams shine through the window. They bought it at a cheap shop, no idea of it's safety or quality.

@brainiac75 3 жыл бұрын

A single beam from far away is not likely to cause damage, but I would still be careful with it. Lasers are never meant to be looked into - unless they truly are class 1 ;) Thanks for watching!

Honestly, they should be classed as weapons outside of approved use cases. Teaching, development, etc outside of approved use cases should be licensed with 'person in charge' licensee responsible.
