Hi all,
New to the site, and a bit of a rookie in the laser world.
Bought a large Ebay 130W China special, only to be met with a tube Dead On Arrival!!
This is where my learnings and lessons quickly started.
I dare say Russ and his YouTube Chanel that I stumbled across has proven invaluable.
Thankyou internet, don’t know what I would do without you.
Still learning and improving.
Cheers
Tony

Welcome Tony- I hope the DOA tube is being resolved? 130W tubes are not cheap. If you are back up and running, please read the FAQ section- especially the part about saving your machine settings, it may save you time/frustration down the road. Gene

Thanks Gene,
Ebay seller actually compensated me for a replacement tube. Enough to buy a 130w Reci tube locally
