Thanks Ken, At 1W, Rayleigh scattering has already long taken its effect and no particles other then the ambient air is needed to see a beam.
On another note, I get these mysterious figures on my wall.. they are quite bright. I also somehow managed to waste a full hour watching them move around.
EDIT: 473rd post! 473nm is my favorite wavelenth, even though these pictures are 445nm

Burning plastic with a laser does indeed put on an interesting light show. Nice pictures, little over exposed in a way but who cares xD
As an update to my launcher, the glaze is separating a little from the PVC end cap. Its not cracking, I'd just separating. So far it been handeling 980J 900v just fine.

Since this is the first projector I ever built or owned, for now im doing single color just to familiarize myself with the system (2W @ 445nM).
Later on I will upgrade this system to a 1W total, white ballanced RGB. I still have alot of work ahead of me to finish it anyway, so It will be a while before either one of those happens. If you have any questions, feel free to fire me a PM, it probably be better then me starting to hijack the thread.
