Alright so I been talking to anomalytech on eBay and using his G2 lens in my builds. I have also been comparing them to other G2s I have (waiting on sanwu's) and seen good power numbers. These are AR coated (not sure if broadband yet? Waiting on reply) but it comes down to a MoQ of 20 pcs and if we can get 20 they're only 10$ each. This is a great price.. and just so you know I've seen a 200mw output difference between anomaly G2 and the other G2 I have. If you would be interested in some at 10$ please leave how many here and let me know! If we don't get 20 minimum I'll be ordering some anyway that you guys can get from me later at 15$.
Interest List - 8/25/16

Thanks.
/edit. If you guys want some LPM pics I'll post em.

This is the lens holder it comes with, 10.02mm is what i measured. I have to put it "roughly" 7.2mm into the module to get an infinity focus. It's almost all the way in.

Sorry, my phone camera doesn't really show but you can see the normal "G2 Shadow" in the background..
Here is the spot made across the garage and a comparison vs a 3 element.

Hey, I can probably offer the $10/piece with an order quantity of as little as 20 G2s, I'll need to place a pretty large inventory order myself to make that possible though. Anything below the 20 pieces will be 15/piece. Let me know if I should include this possibility in my next order to the supplier. The only downside is that lens rings are a bit finicky. Sometimes they will be provided, other times not. It actually may be order dependent now that I think about it, larger orders don't seem to include them. Thanks for this interest and I hope we can make something happen! --Max |

Listing is for ONE 405-G-2 lens. This is a newer version of the the G2s and they feature some upgrades. The images show the comparison to the old G2s previously used, with the old on the LEFT. The new G2 features a MUCH better anti-reflection coating*, with losses predicted to be below 1% through the lens. Power testing for confirmation will be done shortly.** Also, the exit aperture size has been greatly increased to allow all of your laser diode's light to pass through unimpeded by the previous brass holder found on the old G2s. The lens surface quality of this latest version has also improved significantly, and produces a much cleaner beam without nearly as many diffraction spots. It is the best G2 lens that anomalytech has ever worked with, and also comes at some of the lowest prices available! * After power testing with 445nm laser light, the new G2 showed an 8%+ increase in throughput as measured by laser power meter! The G2 offers more than a 30% increase over the standard acrylic lens included in the Aixiz module. For example, if an output of 2.1W was measured with a standard acrylic lens, the G2 would bring the throughput up to 3W. Also, it is rumored that the acrylic lens should not be used in lasers over 1W due to lens heating and melting.** ** After testing a standard acrylic lens, it did not melt with a throughput of 1.6W for 30 seconds. It is possible that higher power diodes may have this happen however. Shipping is USPS First Class Mail, and shipping is charged at $0.30 per additional. If Ebay attempts to charge you more than this in shipping, a refund for the difference will be sent through PayPal. Please remember to use lasers safely and legally, the advancement of hobby laser technology depends on lasers remaining legal. Buyer assumes all responsibility on purchase. FOCUS RINGS ARE AVAILABLE ON REQUEST WITHOUT CHARGE. |
