    suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

    You must have a pretty impressive inventory to incidentally find a couple of these gathering dust. I am interested in the "mini" versions. Are they lamp pumped, Q switched doubled Yags?

    I've got about 2000 sqft of 'junk' of which maybe 10% is listed on eBay at any given time.

    The mini LS machines are lamp pumped with a 3" arc length and a smaller diameter YAG rod, but the laser deck looks remarkable similar to the big 80W. They have a tiny water/air cooler built-in which is probably not suitable for running full power for any length of time. I think they are rated 10W at the 'vag' end (though I think these were sold as skin treatment rather than surgical machines), but have 'StarPulse' which claims 160W. Likely only for 1 pulse or something. These use the Analog Modules 591A arc lamp supplies which are reasonably well documented, though I have never hotwired one of them. I would need to get around a kilobuck per machine. I also have a couple very similar units which are Erbium YAG @ 2940nm.
