| A laser power meter? Try Coherent. Expect to pay couple hundred dollars for an amateur level power meter. |

| Yes it's up to 1W. I believe it's what Wicked Lasers use as well. It's a great deal compared to prices of other laser power meters. |

You might also keep an eye on e-bay as well, you will have to be a little patient though.  Cheers Dale

Athoul, do you have a source where it can be found for $300 ?
All the places I've looked, it's been more like $400.
Cheers,

You can get it for $320 from Coherent's own site:

...even if i confess it sounds a bit strange to me... Anyway: this is what the auction says. It'd be also strange a German man not to be precise
Anyway2, looking for that model spec on internet, i didn't find that functionality, and the middle plug seems a normal plug... |

| Is this the auction you're talking about? My german is pretty poor but I think it says it measures between 1mW and 200mW. Which is still ok for the laser devices most people might be buying but if you were to measure your 230mW on this, you might damage the sensor. In any case it's a good deal for a power meter, great find! |

Yes Xero, it's that auction. Anyway i've some doubts about its real functionality. You can see the model number and if you make a search on Google, all related links don't talk about a laser power meter capability, neither on the specs... so... pay attention if you want to bid...

Lol yeah... and I reckon that in the first picture, the green laser thing looks very "added later", no?
I think some poor guy just spent €40.50 on an experience of getting ripped off  |
