Dude, I can't tell you how much a love this video. The upgrade to true 1080p, 60FPS. The video was quick, yet informative, concise, and satisfying. Add the upbeat music and energy. All to showcase one of the best green lasers I've ever seen. I may sound like a shmuck right now but damn have you come a long way. 👍 I can't even wait for more laser overviews like this.

I know these laser vids are older now, but in the future, it would be interesting to test power the lasers with the meter at different distances for their strength. Just like we test bullet velocity and energy at the muzzle, 50yds, 100yds etc. That’s assuming the laser loses wattage the further you are away. (I’m just a gun channel )

@kevindondrea144 3 жыл бұрын

I totally agree about the blue laser. I'm afraid to use it its so bright. Related to the batteries. My blue laser uses the 16340s but one set I bought. The + tip doesn't extend far enough to make contact with the battery in front of it. I had to use a piece of thick tinfoil bent over a couple times. I was worried about using regular foil so I found a piece of thicker stuff. Maybe twice or three times as thick. That's odd the battery is not long enough. Maybe a "punch out" from an electrical box or a coin would help.

@superman9693 4 ай бұрын

4:50 The light intensity curve corresponds to the brightness of the dot, not the beam. Two things need to be considered here. Firstly the 555 nm max visibility shifts towards blue a bit at night and blue or violet light undergoes a thing called Rayleigh Scattering thus making the beam of the blue laser more visible. Having said that it is no wonder that your 7W 450 nm laser beam appears to be brighter than that of the 525 nm 1,2W laser.

@TheMisterTango 5 жыл бұрын

So are high power green lasers harder to maker to make than blue, thus explaining why most super high power lasers are blue? Because on just about every site I look at there are plentiful options for blue power output (1w, 1.6w, 3w, 5w, 7w) but I've almost never seen a green go over 1 or 1.6w.

I’m wanting to buy a powerful green laser. I’m considering Sanwu Striker. The two I’m considering are the 520nm 1.2 watt and the 525nm 1.8 watt. I reached out to Sanwu and was advised that the 520nmis a more durable diode with a better lifespan and their divergence are about the same. I was also advised that the 520nm has a better beam profile. The lasers will not be heavily used. Which of these two would recommend, the more powerful 1.8 watt 525nm or the 1.2 watt 520nm? Thanks for your advice.

@thearthole Жыл бұрын

I have the 520nm 1.2watt Challenger II and you will not be disappointed, the beam is incredible and very bright. The diode is in a can, it’s not been decanned, I think that the 525 1.8watt is decanned which could mean as you were advised that it may have a shorter life span. The 1.8watt shall also get warmer which means shorter duty cycle. I have not compared the two hit the 520nm 1.2watt for me is enough green! :(
