Author: Alexei L PhD laser physicist - USA - June 2009 Dragon Lasers has a wide choice of small, but powerful lasers of different colors from IR to Blue. They are reliable, price competitive and technical data are trustworthy. I purchased first several lasers(green/IR) 8 mon ago. I checked the power and all data were in spec or a little bit above to what I ordered. Now I am ordering more lasers of higher power. Another nice option is that you can get appropriate protective eye goggle at the same site. Always wear safety goggles when working with lasers(above 10-20mW) otherwise you may damage the retina.
I highly recommend Dragon Lasers.
Author: John S - USA - Jan 2010 We ordered the 100mW 532nm lab laser. This is a very powerful, very bright laser. Rated output should be considered a MINIMUM output rather than the wishful thinking output of other lasers. The unit is very well constructed and Dragonlaser produced a custom cable for us without issue.
Author: Kyle H - USA - May 2010 After creating a concept which would utilize a Laser line as an aesthetic element in a sculpture, I came in contact with a DragonLasers' representative. I new what I wanted to do with the Laser line I just didn't know if it was possible. With the help of DragonLasers' representative, my concept materialized into an amazing piece of art. Never before have I received from another company even a fraction of the amount of help that DragonLasers' provided. This positive experience has insured that I purchase from DragonLasers again.
Author: Thomas P – USA – Nov 2010 My school’s STEM Team (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) purchased three benchtop lasers from DragonLasers to develop a full color laser scanner (laser show). The team at DragonLasers helped me to choose the lasers that would fit our budget and provide sufficient power to create a spectacular show. With their advice, I selected a 100mW 532nm, a 300mW 473nm, and a 500mW 650nm laser, which provides a nearly “white” beam with all three lasers near full power. All three had fast analog power control installed. The lasers arrived quickly, well-packed, and well-documented, and in 4 months of daily use, there have been no problems; these are plug-and-play devices.
The lasers integrated into our show quickly and easily; both the laser head and the power supplies are sturdy and compact allowing the entire show to be housed on a 12”x18” board. As the attached pictures show, the final laser scanner produces wall-filling graphics that are visible in full light. In the dark, the show is spectacular. Independent control of the thee laser powers allows the image to be projected in any color, and we hope to bring this under computer control soon. The photo below was taken at a demonstration of our laser show at the Massachusetts FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) Championship. The show was a hit and was an inspiration to many of the participants. Thank you for your help in developing this project and for your great lasers.
