Quad Laser Module Kit by Edison (USA Version)

**edison** · 05-01-2011, 03:04

So far from the european buyers only Tony has Payed. Now i know that sitting in the sun watching all the beautiful blonds go by is also a very good way to spend your time

but could everyone be so kind to take your eyes off for 1 second and grab your Iphone and send me a PM so that i can respond with payment details?

Thanks

Hey Johan!

Sorry ! busy watching blonds..... Lol

Shit no Iphone!

Also been busy trying to replace a couple of reds in quad I got from Andy without disturbing the two working LDs (everything glued and hard wired...bitch of a job

)

Slightly OT but how the hell do you get these 815.s out of the sleds without breaking the buggers?

One passed away already

and I have only done three

)

Back to topic

The "blondes" thing caught my eye

Have just noticed thread !

As usual the Evil one has documented the thread exceptionally well with very clear pics.

(Good job there Adam ! )

I am interested in one or two of these luverly quad kits

. They look eminently fixable when Murphy shows up!

Have searched through thread bat can not find European pricing anywhere

Can you PM with with relevant info and payment details?

Also "Can you supply invoices for the kits to put through company accounts ?"

Cheers

here are some beamshots with the lenses that i use. The beam is 3.6x3.6 with a very low divergence. The spot at 26 meters is only 10mm

Now to get that beam you have to clip of the edges when you stack the beams. That means that the beams from the second dual diodemount shoots over the first and the first looses the edge because its just a fraction to high. But you will get a very thight beam.

Hi, very nice construction. I come to late for this group buy!?!? Anybody here with one kit left?
My next project is a 10W RGB laser projector with complet own electronic parts. All colors are adjustable, also the size for the galvos. I will use 12-24 pcs open can 300mW laser diodes. The first step is 12 pcs of laser diodes 658 nm.
For the blue part I will start with 4 pcs of 445nm laser diodes. I build driver PCB with stand by beam correction. Now I need a very good possibility for the blue combining. Your kit is the best solution what I saw.

Sorry for holding up guys - sorting now.

Just got back - been away for rugby tour over bank hols so plenty of sun & beer but sadly lacking in blonde eye candy unless you count a few dozen blokes in wigs & dresses lol

Europeans have paid

Wake up guys at the other side of the pond

I will visit tommorow the metalshop again and want to get them started.

Not their fault... I've been crashing on copiers lately working 18 hour days. I'll be sending the PM's tonight for the paypal info.

**edison** · 05-05-2011, 04:59

Just to be clear on everyone this happens 3 out of 5 times when i recieve payments true paypal. Just to be clear.

DONT FORGET THE PAYPALFEES!!!!!!

And another thing: I need euro.s !!!!!! I can,t pay the metalshop in dollars

So before you push enter check this before you transfer the amount. I can,t start with manufacturing when al kits are payed. You won,t get the car that you bought when half the money is in

**-=Jim=-** · 05-05-2011, 05:02

To late I already sent you the funds in dollars.

Adam will sort it out.

He is handling the payments for US buyers. Its also stated the first postage of this thread that its 200 euro,s not dollars and Paypal will always charge paypal fees of 4% The idea of this groupbuy was that i only had to deliver the kits and not handeling payments and other questions because i,m working on buildiing projectors and developing my own modules for a non hobbyist market. This was only to support ADAM and PL members to get a good kit that can help them to get them a stable module.

I won,t do another groupbuy because its simply to much hassle and it takes to much time.

I realy enjoy seeing people building nice modules and laserprojectors but when doing a groupbuy it always turns out in shitload of work.

But its all good, just to express how i feel

And thats why I paid you $1180.00 ( $295 x 4 ) which is the number provided by Adam that appears to have included the exchange rate. We all know PayPal charges a processing fee that is payed by the seller. If you needed this covered, you should have disclosed that up front.

Your right it is simply is too much of a hassle. Please refund my PayPal payment and we can both avoid any further stress.

**edison** · 05-05-2011, 08:42

Paypal sent. No problem i assumed that everyone knows that if you doing a Payment by paypal you need to calculate an the extra 4% on top of it.Also when buying something in the euro zone pay with euro,s. If i buy something in the US i can,t pay with my euro,s either.

I,m not getting rich out of this groupbuy and if it to much hassle to calculate the Paypal fees then that,s fine. Money is sent.

Its seems al US buyers are paying in dollars. I have refunded payments so far. I dont have recieved the information if i need to deliver the lenses or mirrors. My guess is that adam includes that in the package when he forward the package but i,m not sure.

Its very unclear to me but one thing is for sure. Everyone gets his kit when Full payment is done. They can start manufacturing them when the full amount is payed for the order.

But the positive thing is that you have it allot faster then a High quality kit from DRLava

No just kidding i want to speed it up so that everyone gets his kit as fast as possible

**edison** · 05-05-2011, 09:43

I have send Adam a PM and asked him if wants to send al US buyers his bank account number so payments go true him.

When he collected the full amount then he can Paypal the full amount that i need to start manufacturing. I have send him a specific calculation what everyone needs to pay per kit including the paypalfees and shipment.

That way i will recieve the full amount so i can pay the metalshop. I pay half the money upfront to get them to order the material

Sorry that for the confussion and i hope that makes this allittle bit easier for US buyers.

I refunded the money that has been send to me so hopefully it goes all well

I finished a quad red today and here are some pictures. The red modules that are for sale in the near future will have a red baseplate. The blue will have a blue baseplate.

The baseplate of the kit has a universal black anodisized baseplate and you can see it with the additional Topcover here in the picture below:

**hivelaser** · 05-05-2011, 16:05

do you have a shot of the internals? Prism, or other optics? Would be nice to see...

**swamidog** · 05-05-2011, 16:08

take a look at the first post in the thread. 300evil included some excellent shots of the hardware in different configurations.

it's a good looking bit of kit.

**edison** · 05-05-2011, 16:12

I don,t post my final system on the internet. Of course this will happen in time like kvant and RGB oictures. The pictures are just to show how my modules will be and give an idea how you can have your module. If you join this groupbuy.

Its actually not that different then the kit only that the kit is more easy for hobbyist that are not that familiar with stacking. Helping people to a good kit and increasing the hobbymarket will have both bennefits for me and my products. Some of you guys will become professional laserists and hopefully you will buy my modules when you can afford them because you make money with doing shows. Of course if you buy stuff from me i can improve things and manufacturing more stuff. This is my view but not everyone is agreeing with that i,m sure ......

**300EVIL** · 05-05-2011, 20:35

Okay, let me go over this mess and get it straightened out. It gets confusing with all this euros to dollars stuff. What I will do is send everyone a PM with the calculated ammount that needs to be paid to edison in Euros.

**300EVIL** · 05-05-2011, 21:33

PM's sent with exact totals in Euros plus paypal fee coverage. Please PM me if you have any questions.

**edison** · 05-06-2011, 00:43

I have a question. I have the optima lenses but i need them for building my own modules and i don,t have the mirrors.

Its also a little silly in my opinion to buy the lenses and get them to the netherlands and then ship them back. The lenses can be bought directly at optima. The mirrors can be bought at Rob stanwax.

I only need the payment for the kit in euro,s with paypal fees and shippingcosts to adam

Adam needs the cash for shipping within The US

Shipping is 50 euro divided by the number of the US members that have bought a kit.

So please do not pay me at this point. There is some connfussion that has to be cleared first. The lenses can be ordered by OPTIMA for 17.20 Mirrors can be bought here:

See my PM's. I worked this all out a while ago...

Also, we will be going with the express shipping as we discussed in older PM's. No one wants to wait a month.

**edison** · 05-06-2011, 01:34

Adam has ordered a total of 10 kits instead of the 7 kits and that,s fine. Adam mentioned that he will start collecting his part so when i recieved his amount where good to go.

**300EVIL** · 05-06-2011, 01:36

Just to let everyone know, I will be the person supplying the other parts such as lenses, and mirrors. Edison will only be supplying quad kits and enclosures. The extra funds go to him to minimize complexity for the buyers as stated in my PM's.
Thanks!
Adam

**edison** · 05-06-2011, 01:43

To speed up the manufacturing i,m going to call the metalshop in 5 minutes and so they can start manufacturing. I think they will start monday with milling but i,m not sure.
I thrust everyone that they pay for there order.
