Buy Green Laser Pointer Pens - A Laser Pointer Price Guide For Buying Green Beam Success

admin — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 00:04:31 +0000

Yesterday i found this great guide about how to buy a green laser pointer pen. It is really a must read but see yourself:

If you are looking to buy green laser pointers you are going to want to do some research to ensure that the laser pointer you are purchasing produces a solid 532nm green laser beam. The reason that research will be vital here is because there are just too many green laser pointer distributors out there on the web, and the fact is that not all of them ar 100% trustworthy.

So listen closely as we cover some major points that will help you achieve green beam success when you are trying to buy green laser pointers at a reasonable price. First and foremost, you need to determine what exactly are you looking for in your green laser. In other words, what sort of laser applications are you going to be performing? Does the green beam need to be powerful in output power? Do we need a constant on/off laser engagement switch or is a temporary push button sufficient? Are we considering distance, and if so how far will the green beam need to be visible for? So before we even start doing research on where to shop for a green laser pen, we need to really sit down and determine what is our laser going to be used for in the first place.

When you have a clear idea of what your green laser tool will be used for, then we can begin to crawl the web looking for the finest quality green laser diodes that we can purchase at a reasonable price. There is, however, something that any laser hobbyist or professional must keep in mind: Buying laser pointers cheap is not necessarily going to mean you have gotten the best laser deal. More often that not, the cheaper, lower cost laser pointers are manufactured with poor quality green laser crystals and housed in less than adequate laser casings. This can save you a few bucks, but what is the point of a few pennies saved when your laser burns out within the first two weeks and you find yourself searching the web yet again looking to buy a new green laser pointer. So if you are going to spend a little money on the device, do yourself a favor and do it correctly.

When you see a green laser module that you like and which falls within your budget, then you can really start to consider placing your order. Be sure that the laser pointer retailer you are working with has reasonably priced lasers. The market for buying green laser pointers is relatively competitive, a lot of companies are offering the same goods, so a little bit of market research can tell you very quickly which laser company is providing the best deal. No sense in buying the same 95mw green laser pointer at $300 when you can get it for $200, right?

When you have found a reliable source, be sure to take a look at the laser safety equipment they are offering as well. Green laser pointers, though electric and brilliant in their performance, can be very dangerous if used incorrectly. You must always keep the safety of others and yourself a number one priority so that the green laser beam does not cause any bodily harm to people that are present. Take your experiments seriously, and your casual laser pointing as well. It does not take too much dense green laser light to damage a persons retinas, so be careful where you point your green laser.

Finally, be sure that the green laser pointer you are going to buy has some type of warranty attached to it. Sometimes a laser will burn out prematurely, but this is ok if you are working with a top notch laser company. They will gladly replace the green laser for you, free of charge, if you have found the right retailer. So do your research, and buy green laser pointers with a good knowledge about what is out there so that you can make the best educated consumer decision and get the brightest green bang for your buck.

James has been buying green laser pointers since they were first made available to the public. He has designed various green laser accessories and written extensively in the laser light technology field. This is, where he personally chooses to buy green laser pointers .

Green Laser Lointer Pens Are Much More Cooler Than Red Ones…

Green Laser Pointer Pens Are Much More Cooler Than Red Laser Pointers

Everyone of you should have played around with a laser pointer. Maybe you used one for work, when for a Power Point presentation. Or to tease your cat or dog, make fun of your friends by planting a red dot in their forehead, and much more funny things.

But, let’s face it, common red laser pointers are just so lame now. Everyone has one. Your mother has one, and she doesn’t even know what Power Point means. You need a new toy to make you the top geek at work and make fun of your friends…

Now, take a look at this green laser pointer pens. And we don’t mean that “green” where everyone is recycling their old papers. We are talking about a very cool new laser pointer with the much more powerful 532 nm wavelength; which, as any geek worth “his or her salt” knows, is tons better than the old 650 nm used by the old lame red laser pointers.

So if you got your kicks by using your old red laser beam to highlight things on a projection screen across the room, imagine how much fun it will be using a green laser pointer pen to point on things that used to be out of your reach. Because a green laser beam is much more powerful than a red one, it can highlight clouds, and even star constellations.
Best of all, you can see the green laser beam outside during full sunlight!

In fact, if you use this laser outside and happen to point it at an airplane, it’s so powerful you will find yourself in big trouble with the government because pointing a sighting device at a plane could get the feds investigating what other reasons you might have for pointing a powerful laser beam at planes.

Furthermore, the green laser pointer pen doesn’t produce a tiny little spot. Oh no, it turns out that your green laser lets you see the whole beam as it travels to the stars.

A green laser pointer is at a whole separate plane from the red laser pointer. For a true green, a pointer needs a green direct injection diode. These diodes could be potentially dangerous if handled by the public at large, so they’re not even available for wholesale.

Technology called Diode Pumped Solid State Frequency Doubled (or DPSSFD, for short) is what is used for a green laser pointer. This is the technology behind one of the pointers you can buy at the store today. An infrared diode emits 808 nm, which is transformed into 1,064 nm and fired into a special crystal that increases it to two times its frequency. That is where the green 532 nm beam comes from.

Awesome Green Laser Pointer Pen

I came across a very impressive review on a blog a few days ago.
The review was about a green laser pointer pen from wicked lasers.

First I thought it was just one of those ordinary laser pointer that I saw during presentation.

But then I read the review and saw the pictures which shows the pointer in action.

After I saw this I went to wicked lasers and ordered one.

And I have to say:

WOW THIS IS REALLY A POWERFUL LASER POINTER!

Instead of the ordinary ones that shoots out a red light this one is a bright green
light.

The beam could probably blind you so please use it with caution.

here is the original review:

Wicked Lasers Executive Series Nexus Laser Pointer Review

Being the technology loving connoisseur that I am, I never knew a subculture existed for laser pointers and the people that use them! I mean, I can vaguely remember attending my share of conferences, where the person giving the presentation used a laser pointer. Suffice it to say, the only thing that kept my attention at some of these gatherings was the colorful glowing beam of light that illuminated from the laser pointer!

The folks at Wicked Lasers go through great lengths on their web site and in their marketing literature to distinguish themselves from the run of the mill laser makers, by referring to their lasers as revolutionary. We here at Chip Chick never turn down an offer to review a product, and took Wicked Lasers up on their offer to take one of its lasers through its phases!

There are several series of Wicked Lasers and we got the opportunity to review the Executive Series Nexus 95mW model ($299.00), which is the fifth of six lasers in the Executive level Wicked Lasers Series. Other series in the Wicked Lasers line up are: Evolution, Elite, Photonic Disruptor, The Core and The Pulsar Series. Each model offers a different degree of beam and longevity of its power as well as the travel distance of the laser beam.

The Executive Series Wicked Nexus laser is quite the looker with its black polished brass body, weighs less than an ounce, looks like a designer ink pen and measures in size at 13 mm x 143 mm. It operates on two AAA batteries and can maintain 2 hours of battery life, has a momentary on/off button and has a life expectancy of 5,000 hours and comes with a 3 year warranty.

On its site, Wicked Lasers has a pretty easy and very informative demonstration as to how lasers work. Also, I found it very any interesting how they explained what distinguishes one laser from another (don’t worry you don’t have to be physicist to understand the concept and the terminologies). Hence, I learned that the stronger the beam output is the better chances of a laser inflicting a bit of damage on burning through plastic or paper. So, it goes without saying, that lasers pointers are not toys.

However, I would be remiss if I didn’t provide the following features that would probably make true laser enthusiasts foam at the mouth: The Executive Nexus laser has a Wavelength range of 38 miles, and a 95mW CLASS 3B Output power. Also, we must not forget about its 550mA Power Consumption! Admittedly, after I watched the brief demo about lasers, I was able to understand the aforementioned info and this indeed increased my laser IQ tenfold!

The steady green light beam from this Nexus laser illuminated my entire dark living room like a bright green shining beacon and the beam distance could easily be seen for about 20 yards outside. And while I didn’t do the light the cigarette test, I was able to actually burn a hole through two sheets of notebook paper as well as through a paper towel. I would strongly suggest not attempting this; however, my reasoning for doing the above was for the purpose of writing this review. And I have to admit, there’s a bit of mischievous child in me! I had so much fun using The Wicked Executive Nexus Laser pointer.

Because of its solid craft man ship, durability, generous warranty of 3 years and overall quality, The Wicked Executive Nexus Laser is a solid performer, and I can even justify spending $299 for this high end premium laser. Provided of course, it’s used on a regular basis. You truly get what you pay for with this powerful device! Also, please keep in mind, that laser pointers are not toys and should only be purchased for someone who knows the proper use.

While some may cringe at the price tag of the Wicked Executive Nexus Laser, this laser pointer is truly worth its weight in gold for anyone that gives lectures and presentations on a daily or regular basis (you’ll just need to carry some extra batteries with you if your event goes longer than 2 hours). Heck, I can even see the uses for this laser pointer on a camping trip or even as a flashlight! However, I doubt if it can roast marsh mellows, but it sure can burn paper!!

Additionally, Wicked Lasers has Green 532nm Laser Shades that are used to protect eyes from excessive green laser rays. Thus, this allows one to safely experiment cutting, burning and popping in complete safety. Now, I guess I could’ve used some of these during my laser experiments!

The Good:
Solid quality, excellent craft man ship, worth the money, extremely bright beam that can be seen for quite a distance in the night and the illumination is very bright.

The bad:
2 hour battery longevity.
