Well I lost the charger for my camera, so I just took some quick pics with my phone. I bought this laser from a guy who makes them himself for $75. These are pics of my 120mW BluRay laser, which emits a cool 405nm (Violet) color that is very bright and can make certain colors fluoresce when you shine the laser at them (certain minerals, anything that's glow in the dark, because it has the same effect as a "blacklight"). Here are some pics: (click the thumbnails for the larger image)
The first image is just the dot (focused) onto a white wall and if you look closely...you can actually see the beam!
A closer up picture, shot in "Night Mode", beam is a bit more clear.
With my glow in the dark end cap, with the laser turned on. (I have the cap to keep dust out of the lens while it's in my pocket)
End cap when the laser is off (it's glowing!).
Picture of the whole laser, its a Coleman MAX CR2 Flashlight, without the flashlight parts, and a custom AixiZ module with a PHR-803T Diode in it wrapped with a custom made aluminum heatsink. (probably means nothing to you, but it's the same diode that you will find in PS3's and XBox 360 HD DVD Players, and many other BluRay players).
Yes, this thing CAN burn just about anything (except clear stuff and stuff thats really reflective), and yes it does light matches. I'll have some videos of it burning stuff eventually.
More pics in next post.
