Got myself a high powered handheld laser - General

i have a high powered handheld laser too. the bright light on the end of my remote.

Do they ship these things outside the US? If so, whats the shipping fee to Sweden? I would like to get my hands on one of those fuckers.

doug has the best laser

Send me one [editline]09:19PM[/editline] please :saddowns:

Yeah I have a burning laser too. I should make a thread about it. [editline]08:21PM[/editline] Protip: don't even stare at the dot.

Put it in a pringles can full of lenses and a magnifying glass at the top. Laser shotgun. Also find a way to focus it to about 3 feet and challenge somebody to a knife fight. Also you could make a laser sight for a gun, but the laser sight is just as deadly.

Laser pointer for your camera. +More accurate photos :downs: -Violet glow.

[QUOTE=Hookerbot9000;25173037]How far away can it be from something and still burn it?[/QUOTE] Depends on the spotsize and the absorption due to air. If your beam converges on a scale of 10 km, it will still be "burning". 1 W is quite dangerous. I worked with even more powerfull one (up to 50 W) and I just can say: 5 W focussed to a waist of e.g. 100 µm can burn through 500 µm (0.5 mm) thick steel in about 10 seconds.

You should mend that fence.

Anal insertion. [I]Do it.[/I]

Make like 40 of them, and rig them to a computer and some kind of aiming device so they can all focus on one point at the same time. Super laser.

[QUOTE=Craptasket;25182958]24 blue diodes [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpY5TocaRM0[/media] Not focused to a point though[/QUOTE] That is amazing. Are those the same wattage as yours do you know? And would several linked together and focused on one point burn through something, ect? I recall a Mythbusters episode about the Archimedes death ray, but imagine using lasers for a similar effect.

Dayum.

Puti t up against some paper.

I was thinking about getting a green 5mW one. I can't imagine the temptation to shine it in somebodies eyes with a 1W

KILL aLL ANTs WITH YoUR MIGHTY FIRE STICK!!!! /c

this is the nerdiest thing you ever did craptasket

haha

A+ thread would read again

Don't point it at planes, though you should aim directly into your eyes and you will see the future.

That's pretty cool, but seems like a lot of trouble to go through.

Wow, I wish I could afford one.

Point it at a lock. see if it breaks.

Damn, don't wanna stick your eye in that thing.

It'll shoot your eye out
