And more. Here are 118 more projects of mine. This section is a diverse mix of strange physics, electrical oddities, lasers, magnetic levitation, monster LEDs, radioactivity and bizarre substances.

Argon Laser 40 mW Blue

Argon laser 40 mW Blue

Argon Laser 40 mW Blue Laser, multi-line. Unusual in that it has multiple spectral lines. Of course these days, simple handheld diode lasers can be much brighter than this. The power supply and control unit are on the left and the head unit with fan on top. The beam is highlighted by a water spray. I love electronics with a key start.

Green Diode Laser 16 mW

The green laser pointer has enough power to make the Crookes radiometer rotate

This green laser pointer from 2010 above is a class IIIa 532 nm diode laser rated at 5 mW and is legal in the USA.
