Re: 90mW crossfire? $59

Yes, I am also curious about this one. It uses batteries I already have a ton of. Even if it puts out 50mW of green, it would still be a good deal, at least to me.

I couldnt take it any more. I just bought one. I am guessing it should be here by the second week of december. I will let you all know.

How long is their shipping? If it arrives sooner, please write a quick review up. I can get a couple of my friends this for Christmas! Is there an IR filter? anyone know?

 

[fixorater]

Yeh- currently they are waiting on the supplier for mine. As soon as I've Rec'vd mine I'll notify y'all so you can have an idea of the shipping. Also, though I don't have any equipment to measure the specs I'll give it the old match lighting and black tape tests.

Flare02: I dont know how long their shipping is exactly. See, I have read MANY posts that said, "i ordered from DX, and it has been a month, and i still dont have anything".

SO, with that in mind, I am not stressing this purchase at all. If I get it before christmas, i will be happy. I mean, it is a "90mw" green laser, for 60 bucks, and even if it ends up being a 40mw laser, i will STILL be over joyed, because #1 it was only 60 bucks, and #2 it takes 123a batteries, which i have a TON OF already. PLUS, it has to come from china, through customs, and across the US to me in ohio. And, I generally have a lot of patience.

Also, some one should send theirs to the LED Museum, and have it added to the Borg Collective.

 

[fixorater]

I ordered mine on the 9th of November, currently they are still out of stock- and they say I should expect the laser to ship within the week (today is the 21st).

I guess when you go cheap you've gotta expect something to be off. I do remember my DX 50mW taking a while to arrive but this seems quite a bit longer.

I have the 20mw version an I'm very pleased with the laser. I've done a review at the LPF in full>> http://www.laserpointerforums.com/forums/YaBB.pl?num=1195483141

Mods if this link is against rules I'm very sorry, please delete and edit at will.

I'm hoping the 90mw has the same attributes as the 20mw ie waterproofing abilities etc....

 

[fixorater]

Thanks for your post Timelord. At least this keeps me excited while I'm waiting for my unit. Its taking an awfully long time for them to get it from their suppliers.

 

[Lorgar]

Mine just got packaged today so should have it by next week

For the price, even if it were 10mW it would still be not bad.

I've tested one of these, well the 30mW version. It was sent by someone who wanted to verify its output. Indeed there is IR in the beam, in fact there is both 808 and 1064nm present which makes readings using a laser check a bit tricky (without an IR filter to block both). However after using the proper filters and testing it on a Field Max II, the green output was above 25mW, which is not bad. Plus the person said they paid only about $30 for it. That's less then a 5mW in most cases.

Well. I just got an email from DX.

Dear valued customer,

Apologize for inconveniences we caused to you. The items in your order was stock shortage one month, and we are not sure when we can have the manual in hand. So at this point, below is 2 options for you:

1.You may change the items to any other products with the same value and functions in our homepage.

2.you may cancel the order ,and we will issue a refund for you.

Thanks for your understanding.

It looks like I am not going to be getting this.... *cry*

[fixorater]

Yeah I got the same e-mail. I'm a little frustrated with DealExtreme- I've only gotten form e-mail responses to all of my inquiries. Now after a month of waiting they tell me they can't get the item at all. I've asked if they can't give me a special deal on one of the higher mw lasers since I was so patient... no response so far.

 

[mikeeey]

Well. I just got an email from DX.

i need to email them and see if i get a different response. i ordered mine too on the 1st of december.

 

[mikeeey]

whoa i just realized that ALL of their UltraFire Lasers are backordered, not just the 90mW.

 

[mikeeey]

good news, DX instantly replied to me, here is what they said:

Hi Mike,
Approximate one to two weeks for the back order and as soon as we have the item, we will ship it out.

Regards,
kathy

 

[Yobresal]

That is good to know, I guess well have to just keep waiting it out a bit longer.

mine is comming this week, however im afraid its going to be a rip off. look at this thread:
http://www.dealextreme.com/forums/Forums.dx/Forum.0~threadid.44197

2 people so far have recieved theirs and it wasnt really the 90mW model.
i really hope it's just a coincidence tho.
