LaserCube | Power in a Palm

Show lasers have always impressed me, but they used to be big and expensive. So how much can I expect from a new show laser the size of my palm? Let's find out!
The LaserCube was donated by Wicked Lasers. It is now available here: www.wickedlasers.com/cube
Turns out, there are two versions of it. A basic model with max 800 mW lasers and 2 hours battery life, and a Pro model with max 1000 mW and 3 hours battery. Mine must be the Pro model.

[@pattas2005]

Your videos never fail to entertain. Thanks for a great channel! 😊👍

[@reggiep75]

I think firing a laser into a cows eye, obviously a dead cow, would show people the damage they do so ensure people will most definitely not look at lasers!

[@krakaka4726]

Don't think it will be visible from the outside, unless of course you burn a hole in it

[@reggiep75]

They idea would be to fire a laser at the eye(s) for periods of time then dissect them later to see the potential damage they could cause if someone opted to mess around or be neglectful around laser!!

[@davidare]

William Osman made a video just about that. You should check it up

[@Jennifer_Devote]

Why a crow? You just hate birds?

[@reggiep75]

Jennifer - Nobody said 'crow' and nor should you jump to conclusions either. As for cow, if that's what you mean, a cows eye is a nice big thing to cut open and put under a microscope showing people. We also eat a shit load of beef that means a lot of eyes are no longer needed and using them for science is a worthy cause!!

You LUCKY! Wicked Lasers doesn't ship to my country anymore!

[@brainiac75]

Yep, I love living in Denmark :) Regulations on laser pointers were tightened some years ago in many countries (due to people acting stupid with powerful laser pointers), so they stopped shipping laser pointers to these countries to avoid getting them confiscated. However, WL should be able to ship their show lasers to most countries. Thanks for watching!

[@brainiac75]

@Recon.777 Bummer. I'm not familiar with the regulations in Australia. As I remember, WL can send their show lasers to USA but not their high-power laser pointers, so it may be the same with Australia. I would be surprised if Australia does not allow import of show lasers...

This is one of those things that seems really cool but also kinda dangerous. Also... How do you deal with safety glasses when you've got 3 lasers at completely different wavelengths involved?

they just look like tinted glasses, honestly the laser isn't super powerful, as it's meant to be seen without them

[@iaincowell9747]

@@TheAechBomb "the laser isn't super powerful" . Yes it is, he says in the video "this is a class 4 laser, the highest class laser there is". It burns into a CD case. You're thinking of the projection, it is safe to look at the projection, but if you look at the laser it will damage your eyes.

[@TheAechBomb]

@@iaincowell9747 yeah, you don't look directly into the beam, or point it at any reflective surface when at full power only the high-power 'popping' or 'burning' mode uses full power, I wouldn't worry if you're not using it on full power

those powermeters are pretty sturdy. I don't think a 1W laser would burn through the coating if you don't hold it on there for half an hour.

[@LaserPictures]

Scanners are overdriven and probably not true 20k, but it is impressive that they managed to cram everything into that small case. My projectors is at least 5 times the size and doesn't have a battery. Don't know how many viewers you have in the U.S., but you also may want to mention that a variance is required in the states.
