Should i buy from wicked lasers

Are there any other third parties that can buy for us in the USA? Joined Aug 26, Messages Points Just get a PL-E pro nm from jetlasers. Higher quality, less expensive, awesome customer service. And they guarantee shipping to the US. It's very hard to get a laser from wicked lasers into the US nowadays, because they are on the customs blacklist. NightExplorer96 Super Moderator Staff member.

Do you know if those lasers have the IR Filter? I already have a Dragon Laser Spartan mW and love it's simple, but safe switch. You know the krypton does not, right? Also, watch out with the double posting.

When it first comes on, the beam is about 0. The SmartSwitch is a good idea. In our testing, we found it was not possible for someone to turn on the laser who does not know the specific SmartSwitch pattern.

Cautionary note: A determined person could do an Internet search to find out what the SmartSwitch code is. Because of this, an owner should not rely solely on the code to prevent access by minors or other unauthorized persons.

They should also prevent physical access. Having a readily-available lower-power mode is handy, since the laser does not always need to be operated in full-power mode. However, "low" power is still pretty strong. At around 0. It would be better if the lower power mode were 50 mW or less. This is a safer range while still giving good visibility. Perhaps for future models Wicked Laser can reprogram the SmartSwitch so it cycles between three power levels: low, medium and high.

Additional caps are extra-cost options; these provide various beam effects such as diffraction grating, star filter and line filter. LSDI in Orlando, measured the power. The laser battery was fully charged and the laser was turned on and warmed up for a minute or so. The results: Clear cap, high-power mode: 0. Clear cap The clear cap passed most of the light.

We did not get noticeably dimmer readings when the clear cap was on versus when there was no cap at all. The clear cap is useful to protect the laser's output lens from smoke, dust or other contaminants. Training cap With the training cap on, and low-power mode selected, it would be theoretically possible to use the Arctic as a 30 mW "laser pointer". However, LaserPointerSafety. The lowest output power of 30 mW substantially exceeds the U. It is awkward to use as a pointer, since there is no way to quickly turn the beam on and off.

You'd either need to enter the SmartSwitch code every time you want to point at something, or keep the laser on continuously. When on and in low-power mode, the laser is just one SmartSwitch press away from going into high-power mode. It is not easy to tell whether the training cap is on. It looks just like the regular clear cap except for having a smaller diameter. If the training cap was colored or marked, this would be better. Wicked later indicated they might do this. The new label is being introduced in September by Wicked Lasers.

A comprehensive resource for safe and responsible laser use Wicked Lasers. Laser Pointer Safety - Statistics, laws, and general laser pointer news. A San Francisco startup called "Silicon Cali" is selling a bong that uses a 2 Watt blue laser beam to vaporize the smoking material. The entire production run will be units. The laser beam is so intense it is a diffuse reflection hazard. The bong comes with 2 pairs of protective eyewear.

It is not just handheld lasers than can burn objects. Worldwide: Wicked Lasers to stop shipping high-powered lasers to U. Wicked Lasers, one of the best known Internet sellers of high-powered lasers, announced November 19 that it will no longer ship lasers above 5 milliwatts to U. Wicked currently sells handheld lasers up to milliwatts 2 watts. In the U. All Wicked Lasers sold in will thus be within the U. Wicked is a major internet advertiser and a heavy user of AdWords.

By doing this, the company puts the information in front of a large audience of persons whose browsing history indicates they are interested in lasers.

The well-known Internet seller Wicked Lasers has added detailed safety information on its website about the hazards of its products. A key part of this proposal is that the information is not controlled by Wicked or any laser manufacturer; instead it comes from an independent source. Click to read more The Evo is a green nm laser with a minimum of milliwatts of output power safety Class 3B and a beam divergence of 1.

The stated Nominal Ocular Hazard Distance is feet or 47 meters. Although anyone can download the app, the software does not appear to run unless connected to a Wicked E4 series laser such as the Evo.
