I'm assuming you were pointing is directly at the goggles?

Yeah, he pointed the laser through the goggles to the balloon to pop it but the goggles melted first.

humakabula1 is lying, and spreading false information.

The Arctic has not shipped to anyone yet, and will not until mid-July most likely. They just started mass production.

Perhaps I am wrong under some sort of extraordinary circumstances, but I am 90% sure you are lying about your supposed "tests", humakabula1. If you want to prove me wrong, try posting some pictures of your laser. Otherwise, you do a service to nothing but your ego to pretend to know what is safe and not with this laser.

But how from ebay? Unless you got some like dev model, as they haven't even started mass production. So somehow you got some special model that wasnt mass produced yet.

Either way man, I'd love to see pics of this. Sounds pretty sick. How much was it?

Perhaps you do not understand. This laser does not currently exist, period. This is why there are no videos or pictures of it working on the WickedLasers website, the ONE they have is a render.

The Arctic is not currently in the hands of anyone, not even WickedLasers staff. Thus, it cannot be in the hands of eBay sellers. Thus, it is not in your hands.

You are lying, so just shut up before you make more of a fool of yourself. It would be one thing if this was a white lie about some mod you did, but you are spreading misinformation and masquerading as an authority on laser safety in a setting where you obviously lack any knowledge.

My point was that IF you were lying about some hypothetical mod, such as "Oh yeah, I made an awesome ____", then I would not really care, I might have cared years ago, but not now.

That is NOT what you are doing. You are pretending like you have any idea what you are talking about, and point blank lying about an extremely dangerous and easy to misuse device. Do you understand what I mean now? Stop crap and evading my main point.

And what do you plan on doing with this? Seeing how fast you can blind yourself? Trust me, I work with 1W - 100W lasers in the lab, and even with glasses you can have your eyesight severely damaged if the beam scatters off something the wrong way. That even goes for the small ones.
