OC mirror has number 61-490-043-30 on it's side. If these indeed are 488nm mirrors, can you suggest any place to ask for multiliners.
HR mirror says: 61-490-000-30 and 60815-91 on other side.

I'm running magnet from rectified variac voltage(not visible in picture), got 970µF of filtering there and it has about 20volts of ripple.

Currently limited at 200V as thats high as the caps are rated for.

I will look up the numbers, your magnet is too low field for one thing

Sorry for taking your time, but these optics are infact multiliners. After checking the HR mirror mount I lost the aligment, when I got it back I noticed increasement in beam wattage by very high amount, as i increased power slightly other wavelengths came visible.

Ooooo pretty picture!

you have the multiline, multimode, set, and so you need to get the field up and "walk" the mirrors. A pretty good discription of walking is in the FAQ.

I boosted the magnet high as I were able to and walked the mirrors to archive highest intentisity as possible.

I had never seen light that powerful, managed to push up to 22amps to tube(only able to read thru scope so far, multimeter goes wild when touches smps) before my 16amp wall-breaker blew(230volts here). Ofcourse there are lot bigger lasers out there, but not avaible to me

Friend took some pics while I carefully set the mirros into trees roughly 100meters away:

taken with 1sec exposure time

I will report the volts@amps table later on when i get hold to those analog meters.

Now just I'll have to get some proper application to use this beaty on, missing red currently for RGB scanner atleast, but there are more to do for sure!

keep it down in the 15 amp range for a while.

red diodes are just fine,dont worry about krypton or whitelight. A 88 + 250 mW of Maxys module will rock

hey, take a look at this, it saves me time of scanning in some docs for the 88
