But it is actually remarkably efficient... there *is* a min-flow setting, for 'normal' operation, but you can get-away with far-less water / pressure, than you can with, say, a 171 - those puppies MUST have the 6gpm @ 80psi, or it's a no-go on the Start intlk....

    Sonofabitch....

    6 months ago I promised myself I was getting out of ion lasers for good. That picture has just made me seriously re-think my decision. (Well, that, and the fact that I still have that French AA 8-channel PCAOM sitting on the shelf...) 16 watts, you say? droooooooool....

    Damn you DSLI_Jon!

    I believe you mentioned something to me on the phone the other day... about not spending any more money on lasers for a while...

    Aw man, stop messing up my fantasy, will ya?

    But yeah, you're right. I can't spend any cash for a good long while. Between the medical bills and my son's wedding, I'm tapped out. Sigh.

    Still, it would be one hell of a laser to own, wouldn't it? (Hey, I can dream, can't I?)

    How does that Shakira-lyric go? '...my remote don't lie..'

    Haha, nah, it's not 'damn me', until you sell your cars and boat and truck and silverware to buy it!

    Of course not! No one ever does, you see... You *create* the business...
    For example: You scoop up the Sabre, and *X-Rent it* to Buffo for his Sons' Wedding!!

    ...OR, you could x-rent to other Sho Co's ie: IE in Baltimore, etc...Heck, I'd even prolly call ya sometime!

    Seriously, though - if you have that kind of cash to blow, you should brolly buy as much gold as you can, and leave just enough for an M-16 and a fully-loaded Arrowhead water-truck... jk

    With that, I leave you with buying crummy gold-bullion on one side of the scale..... and *this* 'gold', in the other:

    http://www.laserium.com/gallery/pages/100001.html ...can't produce 'gold' like that with an RGB... (ps... you *want* to click 'next'... :P

    Oi, I feel like I'm growing horns and a tail, here...
