Does anyone here own around 3W-5W of both of these, who can comment on better visibility for graphics as a far distance?
At the 2W region my personal experience for 520nm diode is:
- Nicely matches beam characteristics of red and blue in a typical 3W - 7W RGB
- Colors seem to blend better
- Not quite as "brilliant" of a green
And 532nm DPSS:
- Superior beam profile to diode (divergence is better and overall "cleaner")
- Generally more visible and crisp, especially for graphics where divergence is important
- Shorter operational life, prone to temp fluctuations
