Less than a watt is more than enough to instantly and permanently blind someone. They will also ruin your cameras so use old ones you don't care about. I am not sure if some of the people who buy those laser pointers know how dangerous they really are. The beams are dangerous for at least 10 miles.

If you don't like the noise of the fan you can just disconnect it and hook an external fan duct up to the device and have an as large fan as you'd like. Of course this will increase the overall size of the device. You can't have and eat the cake at the same time.

[@markhesse4510]

Get an "energy reformatter" . An energy reformatter is a device that can convert any type of energy in any other type of energy without loss. Using this, you can build extremely strong lasers: 1) Set the reformatter to a mode where it converts thermal energy in coherent optical energy. 2) Put it directly on top of a threadripper. 3) Start any program for a laser beam with up to 700W! Minecraft works very well to create high power laser beams with this setup.

[@andrew13yearsago2]

[@beacjere284]

i dont think it should be able to burn through plastic without any IR so either the IR filter is not perfect or there is no IR filter. as i have no experience with lasers of that power i do not know.

[@ambrosekillpack4841]

This laser display actually draws not too differently from the way a CRT draws an image, it can't draw a true still image, but it can trick you into seeing a still image by refreshing it dozens of times a second, possibly up to 60 or 80 hertz. This is actually how a CRT draws a still image, and that's actually why the display appears to flicker, is because the one image isn't actually constantly on, but is actually being redrawn again and again anywhere from 30 times a second on low end TVs, up to like 144 times per second on high end gaming CRTs.

[@6Twisted]

Why is a 2 watt laser so impressive when for an example a 3cmx3cm CPU draws up to 200 watts? Why does it take so much cooling to produce such a low watt laser?

[@brainiac75]

The two watt is optical power - not electrical power. Two watts of optical power in a 4 mm wide beam is a lot! Any laser above 0.005 watt of optical power is considered an eye-hazard, and the highest laser safety class starts at 0.5 watt. Thanks for watching!

[@pmgodfrey]

I wonder what the output is with a proper IR cut filter. If you have to go with DPSS modules, I prefer 473nm...or use argon ion and krypton ion lasers.

[@plemli]

These are all direct diode lasers and do not output any IR at all. An IR cut filter would be nothing but a waste of power.

[@pmgodfrey]

@@plemli -- I tend to use 473nm, 532nm and 671nm. Those are all diode pumped lasers.

[@plemli]

@@pmgodfrey good for you, but I meant that this LaserCube device likely has 445, 520 and 630/650nm, all of which are direct diode lasers that do not emit any IR except as incoherent longwave heat.

Hello there, I have a small laser display system, from Big Dipper, model k100, it’s a 20 mw green laser, nothing impressive but it’s a good effect, having an issue with the green laser, as it scans a clean green line, the laser seems to be flickering a lot, not all the time, which is why I can tell the difference of when it is flickering and when it’s not, what is causing this? Temp does not seem to be the factor, ass I have tested it with the unit both warm and cold, when cold the laser starts dimmer but doesn’t flicker, when the unit is warm same thing no flicker, but it flickers for a while randomly, also it’s driver board does not have any power adjustment knob. I am having to return the unit which will take forever, but I was just wondering if you had any ideas on how to maybe solve the issue without me having to go through the trouble.

So, is there anything I can "safely" use for some beamshows in fog? 20 years back they displaysed beamshows here in the mall, not caring that the upper deck was fully inside the laser-animation....

[@adev8565]

Professional laser show systems widen the beam. They also have lockouts and safety shutters that stop the beam if the galvos don't move or don't move fast enough - i.e. when the beam's energy stays in the same area for too long. Toys like the device mentioned in the video don't have such mechanisms, so if someone were to use them for a laser show and someone were to get hurt, the owner of the device would be sued to oblivion.

[@N4CR]

Arctos has had 15W (16W internal) in the size of a shoebox at 15kg (about size of your 2W) for 5 years+ lol and that's ready for touring show/professional use... Cooling is critical, the lasercube isn't going to be too stable in long term use or touring environments, it will loose alignment quickly. You can't just cheat physics.. adding a bigger fan helps. edit; wtf is it outputting 140mW at idle? Pretty crappy QC P.s. Usually best measure for each wavelength individually and add them up but it appears you are using a thermal head so it shouldn't really matter. Scanner mirrors are cut for round beam. Square beams typically are more rectangular mirrors. Brass is terrible for thermal conduction by the way. It's used for other reasons.
