The power behind this laser is INCREDIBLE! Don't put anything at the end of this beam unless you want it destroyed! This green laser peaks at 640mW and settles out at 590mW after a good warm up, giving it the elite class IV status. Always wear goggles when working with lasers over 5mW!

Here I use an insanely bright red LED to burn things without the aid of any focusing optics. This beast takes 8 amps to run at full power, producing several watts of output light. Remember, this is not a laser! This is just an unfocused, but extremely powerful LED. This LED came from one of the Casio projectors that we get the 1W+ blue laser diodes from. That projector is like a goodie bag to light freaks like me. https://rumblevideoarchive.wordpress.com/

This death ray has held up well to the extreme power it produces. I built this laser myself, it is a projector 445nm laser diode at 2A. My total cost was somewhere between $50 and $100 because I used a lot of scrap parts and had stuff laying around. I wore goggles when making this video, and if you ever get a hold of of one of these new 445nm lasers (including the Arctic), you MUST wear goggles or you WILL pay the consequences.

This is probably the easiest burning laser one can make, and it doesn't cost much either. Parts list: 200mW rated laser module: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.26891~r.93098389 Switch and Battery Pack: RadioShack, various electronics stores Altoids Tin: Be creative Some rules regarding these lasers: You cannot EVER use this laser indoors without goggles. Looking at the dot up close WILL give you PERMANENT retinal burns. You cannot show this laser to friends if they do not have goggles, no exceptions. Do not point this laser near any other people out side and never annoy people with lasers. If you cannot handle these rules you probably aren't smart enough to build a laser like this anyway. I'm not trying to be a dick here, laser safety is serious stuff. Legality: This laser is completely legal to build in the USA as long as you don't sell it or use it illegally. Fog was used to bring out the laser beams. Check out http://laserpointerforums.com to learn more about laser pointers, lasers, and laser pointer companies!

This is the most powerful laser I have been able to get my hands on, so as any man would, I decided to stick some stuff in the beam and see what happens. At 2W @ 445nm, this laser is a real beast. I built this laser myself, putting a whopping 2A through the poor little laser diode. It probably won't last long, but it sure is cool while it lasts. I wore goggles when making this video, and if you ever get a hold of of one of these new 445nm lasers (including the Arctic), you MUST wear goggles or you WILL pay the consequences. Merry Christmas!

Here's how I built my extremely powerful blue laser as seen in my popular video "Blue Laser Burning Stuff!". I got a lot of questions about that video so I decided to make a video overview explaining the parts I used and how they are put together, followed by a bunch of clips of it burning stuff. Power is probably a little over a watt, AKA 1000mW. I got most of these parts at http://www.modwerx.com . You have to find a broken computer somewhere for the power supply if you go for this build though. ALWAYS wear goggles when working with lasers over 5mW! Permanent eye damage is very easy to get with strong lasers, but is also easy to avoid if you take the right precautions. https://rumblevideoarchive.wordpress.com/

A drill press would best best, but I just used a hand drill. I started with small bits and changed bits gradually until I got to 1/2". This is the best way to go about drilling the heatsink. *If you have an open can laser diode, take care not to let dust get inside of the diode! *If you don't want to build a driver, just make the module found in this video and hook that up to the power supply. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VrNDe9mpOs http://hackaday.com/2010/09/30/build-a-cutting-laser-from-an-old-pc/ http://www.gearlog.com/2010/10/hack_turn_your_old_computers_i.php http://pcbheaven.com/opendir/index.php?show=42675ie42915fc04911f1f Check out http://laserpointerforums.com to learn more about laser pointers, lasers, and laser pointer companies!

This laser is focusable, unlike the Wicked Lasers Arctic, which makes it even better for burning. This build will cost around $130, less than half the Arctic price. Parts list: Flashlight (There are a lot of options, I chose to "drill out the pill". You can add a bunch of extra options, like the "hot option". With the hot option You won't have to buy a flexdrive because there is already one placed in the flashlight set to the current you want.

Try out one of my more simpler builds instead. If you try this build with out ever building a laser before there is a 99.9% chance you will fail, seriously. This is a complicated build and there are a lot of things you can do to mess up. I DO NOT SELL THESE. I'm sure a lot of you are thinking, "Why on Earth would you show the general public how to make a class IV laser?" I wasn't planning on showing how to build one of these, but now that any random idiot can go and buy a 1W laser from multiple companies, I might as well take the opportunity to promote safety. No person will complete this build without some reading first, and then they will know how dangerous this laser is. For info on these lasers check out www.laserpointerforums.com Some rules regarding these lasers: You cannot EVER use this laser indoors without goggles.

One hit in the eye will blind you, and even staring at the blindingly bright dot will hurt your eyes permanently. Please be safe and buy some! Link: http://www.o-like.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=4&products_id=26 Notes: This build will power your laser at about 440mA, this will push it a little but should still give you a good lifetime. You will need more heatsinking if you plan on running this laser for more than 30 seconds at a time, heat kills laser diodes! When soldering to the laser diode, make very quick touches with the iron, if you don't make the joint the first time, let it cool for a while before attempting again. Laser diodes are sensitive to heat and static, and can break for many reasons. Don't touch the bare pins of the laser diode before it is attached to a driver.

This video covers the main difference between hobby level green and red lasers. Here are a couple extra notes: This video was shot in fog. Green lasers are a very complex system so you are more likely to find problems with these. Red lasers are simple so problems are less common. Those cheap "200mW" rated green laser pointers you see on Amazon or cheap Chinese sites for under $50 are never even close to 200mW of actual output. GOGGLES ARE REQUIRED WHEN USING LASERS OVER 5mW! If you cannot afford goggles, do NOT mess with strong lasers. Watch for an epic laser demo coming up soon! I'll give you a hint: class IV blue lasers!

This video compares some of the most common power outputs of green lasers you can buy these days. I compare the difference in visibility and burning between 5mW, 15mW, 35mW, 50mW, 100mW, and 150mW. Important info after watching this video: -I used fog to bring out the beams. -This video is only about green lasers because they are nearly always fixed focus and have a small beam diameter. -I mention powers where tricks are EASY to do. You may be able to pull off burning tricks with less power than what I state, but these are bench mark powers where you can reliably do these burning tricks. -Additional focusing with extra lenses can lower the threshold of what you need to burn. Watch my focus video for a better explanation of this. -I go by actual power of these lasers in this video, not advertised. Nearly all cheap laser sites sell lasers marked from 100mW to 300mW when in reality the actual power is much lower.
