Re: Lasers (actually, just one...)

Oops, I misspoke.

There apparently is not a power supply in the unit.

Repeat, there is no power supply.

Re: Lasers (actually, just one...)

Oddly enough, this looks very simmilar to a laser I played with, (yes played with in one of my senior year end classes) Mine was laying in a LARGE (5ft tall, 3ft thick, 6 foot long) Box. I may have to talk to the teacher who has it in his class and see if I can get a better look at it again, its been over 4 years now. Tha laser WAS used in experiments measuring off longdistances. I always had an idea to bounce the laser all over school and make people really wonder, but never could get enough mirrors...

Re: Lasers (actually, just one...)

All of those things would point to micro adjustments for aiming. (moving the black tube inside the larger tube. The slot would seem to me an indication that this assy would be interchangeable with another similar device. Perhaps different wavelength emmissions. The foam may be a holdover from some temperature control insulation. I am surprised that there is no power supply. That type of connector is not used for high voltage, the insulation has a low breakdown voltage.
