Re: PGLIII-like model
Hello All,
I also recived my PGLIII-Type unit from bootleg2go. I purchased the slim version. Unit arrived, well packaged, via Fedex, in a very quick turn around time !! I use a SpectrsPhysics 404 meter to check power, tunned for 532 output. On a fresh set of Eveready Industrial Alkaline batteries, the output is 165mw @ power level 7 ( Rotary selector switch built into tail piece selects 0~9, with 0 = off. At selection 8 & 9...output goes up to 200....but is somewhat unstable. From my understanding, units are like individuals...each with its own characteristics, each with a
unique combination of 808 pump diode, alignment and MCA purity. Therein lies the variance on end product mw output.
Unit is WELL built, and beam characteristics based on visual observation only, are very round output ( no beam expansion optics utilized ). Driver electronics placed in tailpiece, along with current modifing power level 0~9 selector switch. Great value for money spent. Wish list: leather case for protection or knurled type outer shell on future generations. Thanx Jack. PT
