Basics

  • This page explores simple off the shelf componets for lasers and their associated optics

Small Lasers

  • 5.5W complete - $100 - China ship - [1]
  • 3W - $57 - [2]
  • 3W $60 - [3]
  • 6W- no electronics - $99 - [4]

10-100W

  • 10W $169 - [5]
  • 14W peak - $230 - [6]
  • 15W - $330 with power supply - [7]
  • 10W - $239 - [8]
  • 20W - laser diode bar, no power supply - [9]
  • 30W fiber coupled laser diode with fiber and no collimator - $350 - [10]
  • 50W used 808 nm bar only $540 - [11]

Collimators

Device that takes incoming light waves and makes them parallel. See [13]

  • 10W max - $57 - [14]

Uses
