    my projector already ha a LPM'd 650nm 445nm laser and the modules im receiving are promised to have above their specified mw's.
    ive done some reviews and it seems lasever indeed does that.
    Its a 500mW unit im ordering but will likely be 550~600mW according to the salesman.
    The 1000mW will be exactly 1000mW with maybe 10mW off. Because 1000mW is the limit of the diode, the salesman told me.

    im receiving the 1000mW monday or tuesday most likely. I'l LPM it when it gets here, ofcource.

    Some Chinese laser companies have translation problems. Expected Lifetime: 10000 hours really meant 10000 minutes.

    My projector that is currently half way done is:
    1000mW 445nm
    100mW 473nm
    550mW 532nm
    250mW 642nm
    475mW 660nm

    Those powers are unbalanced. I might replace the 100mW 473 with another quad red module and replace the 660nm with 637nm.
    I'm using an edison case from MisterWilling. Everything barely fits.

    Laserworld are using a really disonest way to advertise power for their projectors. Let's take their "6.5W" RGB PL-6500RGB : if you cumulate the min power you obtain 4.5 watts (and I strongly think it is at laser aperture, not after the scanners), and furthermore the balanced white will only be <3 watts, cos they use a 2.5w 532nm!

    thats completely true..... they have a disonest way of doing things...
    Strangly their marketing works perfectly because they sell alot of shitboxes en making a good living of it.
    Even more sad is that their office is in Switzerland....
    Almost all things out of swiz are extremely well engineered and precise.
    (if it comes out of switzerland it must be good..... thats not the case with laserworld)

    But lets not get offtopic anymore.
