True 50mW Green @ DX v.s. Red Laser @ DVD-RW

[diabolospin]

my 100mw red laser can only burn nerf darts

[TheSuperpocketbike]

@qrlasers Dont be a retard, green is 4x stonger to the naked eye. so 200mw red=50mw green. Red just has more heat power but not as bright as green.

[renno007]

Yes, this power can blind you easily.

[DrZirta]

Are they both 50 mW, cuz im considering getting a red 50mW

[renno007]

@DrZirta

Green isn't real 50mW and red one gives about 70mW.

[DrZirta]

@renno007 Cool... and do you need safety goggles with the 70mW?

[Rocky447744]

Hi I've recently bought a laser from the Czechs ... who also has 50mW but there is no heat in some way ... how can I make the stuff (paper can burn) ... with magnifier lens and Microscope I been trying in vain

[diegoribadacunha]

your lasers are like 20-30mW green and 100mW red ^^

[renno007]

@qrlasers

BR lasers are also great burners.

They can also burn white things that IR/RED lasers cannot.

But they are more expensive.

[renno007]

@qrlasers

This is not 200mW laser..much less.

But yes, it's still silly to compare 50mW laser with any other more powerful laser that can be focused to small spot.

But this video shows which laser is better for burning to comparing how much money we invest.

Red/IR lasers are better for burning and green lasers are better to achieve visible beam.

[diegoribadacunha]

the green one will burn too if you focus it

[renno007]

I got this diode out of broken 18x DVD-RW.

If you don't want to gamble you can buy new LPC815 diode.

It costs only $10-15.

You can find my homemade LPC815 laser in my videos.

[laserfan17]

red and green laser burn at the same time this red laser burns better because: green laser probably has low batteries, and second red laser has focusing lens to burn better

[renno007]

Green laser has good batteries, only problem is underpowered DX lasers.

Even if I focus green laser it can not burn as this cheap red laser.

Take a look on my another video where I used LOC diode on 410mA.

That is burner :D

[fordyboy84]

What make and speed dvd drive did you get the red diode from?

[renno007]

That is true.

This is point.

[k3bab]

What are you trying to say? That red lasers are better than green lasers? Well.. a red laser gives more power than a green laser for the same price, but if you compare one 50mW green laser and a 50mW red laser they wouldn't  be any difference except that the green has a more visible beam
