    As per my other thread, I need to replace an Nd:YVO4 rod from my engraver's laser head. The original rod is diffusion bonded with a 2mm long undoped YVO4 section, bonded to a 10mm long doped section at probably 1.1% as this seems to be the most common. The face dimensions are 4 x 4mm. Many...

    I got the ClubMAX with Saturn scanners, however I still do not have a light show variance. I tried applying a few times from Pangolin's web variance application, but they seem to be ignoring me after the sale. I will keep pestering them. I have some questions about general setup, if anyone...

    So after much chasing around, I managed to get a copy of the software that is supposed to work with this unit, however it kept reporting that the laser was an unknown type After a lot of investigating, including having to replace a NiMH backup battery on one of the boards and reinstating the tracks...

    This is probably a stupid question but I was wondering if they sell a stand alone ceiling mount (as opposed to using a light truss clamp) to securely mount my rather heavy laser to the stud behind my standard drywall ceiling in my house. I’m going to be using this laser in a location where a full...

    Take home a spare pair of galvos and amps that exactly match what is in your new projectors. Overscan kills Galvos because the Chinese set up everything as wide as possible, for them that is a feature, not a bug, for most users, the ability to drive the scanners to the mechanical stops or to hit...

    Hi all! I'm from Australia but I'm currently in Shenzhen so figured I'd visit their factories / showrooms. I'm mainly looking to get my hands on a pair of indoor lasers (3-6W) for home use, but I'm considering starting a laser business in the future hence interested to find some good units. The...

    Slide started a thread Good Fuzz FX Plastic in Lumia
    Found that this plastic sheet designed for anti glare picture framing works really well for a nice fuzz effect. Not too fuzzy, and very little scattered light. It is plastic, so you might not want to put 50 watts through it for a long time, but I just got it as scrap from a framing shop. ...

    NO, if any-thing needed to be added back in, Pangolin did it already. Main board change in that mod was the threshold for the limiting diodes was lowered by switching to Schottky diodes from the existing Silicon and the gain on the position demodulator was changed. If Bill Benner tuned them, then...

    Hi all, Bought the DT40 Pro back in 2008/2009 and had it shipped directly to Pangolin for modifications. Anyway, I played with it briefly with a single-color laser, lost interest then put it away. I recently dug it out after I came across a 500mw RGB module with TTL/analog modulation I...

    I think my direct quote was "...like smashing you in the face with a brick for an hour", and I saw many laser shows by other companies (who shall remain nameless) where I left exhausted with my ears ringing. Laserium was all about PACING. Yes, you should have those high energy numbers - they're...

    I think it would be a mistake to try to define Ivan space as devoid of the music that it interprets. And not just any music. There may be a real connection between Laserium's early success and the best of the progressive rock experiments that were happening at the same time. I see clips today and...

    Here's photos of a color mapping experiment in which an HSV grid is mapped to cycloids. The desert scene is a scrolling background that resembles a blocky old VIC-20 game. The code that generates the color map has access to the same live and recorded input as the rest of the system so one can set...

    That's the Kickstarter one, right? Nope, you can't get a variance for them. If you could, they'd scream it. While it's true that it's completely legal to possess and use in a private setting at home, the moment you do something that you want to show in public, it becomes illegal in the USA....

    My youtube channel is The Golden Age of Laser Shows. Everything posted there was output from a system I developed using four bela "starter kit" devices and a lot of support from the elders and rock stars of live laser concert history. The open part of the platform shown in the videos is a c++...
