I was watching the live q and die podcast #88 with a couple guys from eotech and there is a sneak peak on their new ir laser for those interested. Its around the 3 h 6 min mark for those who dont want to watch the whole thing.

In the podcast they said 1299 for commercial and 1599 for Full Powered.
Guess I’ll hold off on buying anymore laser beams. Hopefully the civ version isn’t neutered as badly as the atpial c
 
Would be great to see the specs on this. If they don't somehow fuck up the VCSEL implementation I want to assume that the illumination power would be closer to the MAWL (150mW) versus the NGAL/RAID-X (90mW) given that it's much larger than the NGAL and for the civ price it should be more than fine on illumination clarity & photonic barrier defeat.

My MAWL-C1+ can keep pace with my DA and NGAL for illumination and surpasses the DA in some ways with the newer programming.
 
Someone explain VCSEL to me like I’m 5
I feel the same way with some of the NV and Thermal, but maybe I'm more like a 10 year old vs. 5, so I don't need to be tickled or bounced on a knee while explaining ;). My military time was before most of this stuff was even reality, we had NV but they were beasts and they gave us very little time with them, no lasers and certainly no thermal - that would be sci-fi stuff (like Predator).

Any update on this or are we all waiting for Shot 2023?

Has a pre production supposedly, has a good few photos, video of performance im not sure if I can tell if it’s edge emitting or vscel

I just looked at the pics on IG. Not impressed with the controls. I was hoping to see more PEQ/NGAL/RAID type mode selector and illumination control dial. Eotech is close to putting out good stuff but outside their core holosights the execution seems to just miss. ( Their scopes and the mini RDS)

So much for the $1200 price point.

No mention of what type of illuminator they are using either
It’s weird they aren’t giving those details or the power output. Or a picture showing the tape switch port or mode selector dial.

The price doesn’t surprise me and the final street price will probably be closer to $1200-1500

Still may be a decent option. I’m warming up to it a little.
 
At least it looks as though they are confident in the whole product being 'similar to a standard deck of playing cards'... very helpful. Must have the best of the best on marketing.

Also no listing of any sort of specs not even if it’s VSCEL or not. No power numbers too

Their IG has (or had) a post advertising their white phosphorus binos so yeah...
 
Full power lasers are restricted, you're dreaming on individual mil/le sales it'll be agency only
 
I believe it when I see it not when some social media dork responds to a comment

The FDA regulates them above a certain power level. I've yet to see, anywhere, a company that will sell a full power laser to an individual.

If they will I'll be out a couple grand 🤣 but I'm pretty sure my wallets safe
 
There are literally tons of officers who have bought restricted lasers as individuals using their LEO credentials. It’s not even up for debate.

What about the Luna that has a filter than can be removed?
 
This thing?

It's a half mW... that's nothing, if you're removing a filter or altering the device to get more power out of it good on you

I'm talking about Dbals, Atpials, MAWLs, Ngals etc...

Stuff pumping out 25-50mW of visible and IR power out of the box, good luck getting one of those without a purchase order from a Mil unit or LE agency unless it's grey market shit with no warranty

Maybe I'm wrong, I hope I am
 
Honestly, ReGuLaTiOn is asinine BUT literally eye-popping infrared lasers have no business in the hands of your average citizen, inclusive of the police.

My point was not to compare to the current line of FP lasers but to say there is a way a mfr can produce options for civilian use that allow “alteration”.
 
We're always going to get the shaft because we don't have a credit line based on taxpayer dollars

Reminds me of a dude I saw on Reddit. He made some post to the effect of “Fuck the FDA, if I can be trusted with a rifle I can be trusted with a laser.” Then he bought a full power Somogear laser and posted a video where he “tested” it by firing it at his neighbor’s house including through their windows like half a dozen times.
 
People are idiots. Thats why regulations exist because some retard hurt them self in a way people wouldnt think of using a product.

You are correct that some people are idiots.

However, extensive regulations that protect, fertilize and promote the ability of the idiots to reproduce is further weakening the population by allowing them to expand their numbers and defy the laws of nature.

The laws of natural selection left to operate as they should, tends to build a stronger population.

Just look at what 60 plus years of Welfare has done to this country.
