Author: Gregorio N - Italy - Aug 2008 I have ordered a 2mW Orange laser pointer. It's come to me in seven days from the order date, good shipping.
I have measure the output power with my power meter. The power peak is 2,44mW, then the output will be stabilized to about 2mW.
The output power of all orange lasers are not stable, because this type of DPSS laser works very hard: the wavelength of 593,5nm is made by summation of two line of nd:YAG crystal, 1064nm and 1342nm and after this, there is a crystal for doubling the wavelength, to transform the IR light in orange light.
At night or in a dark room the beam is a few visible, and the orange beam is very unique.
This laser pointer has the IR filter, for safe and for increase the beam spec, the IR filter can be removed by unscrewing the front cap, because it is glued under the cap.
Without the IR filter the output power has peak at about 20mW, but for safe is better to don't remove it.
Good product, thanks Dragon Lasers, you are a good deal.
A special thanks to Frank, because he is a lot of kind and helpful.
