I've been wanting a laser to mark my prints for a little while now (like what's seen at 6:31) but don't know what I'm looking for. The IR/Fiber(?) laser on this looks perfect. As does the Xtool. Had a friend try it with his lasertree one but he said he could only get it to melt the top. Are there any keywords that can help point me in the direction of additional options? Also there's a titling error. The video is labeled the F9 rather than G9. Either way, thanks for another great and detailed review! It's a good thing I don't have the money for one yet because I could definitely see enough applications with this to make me pull the trigger. Now I've got time to understand and research what the heck I'm even looking for lol
You need an IR laser to mark on the surface. It works better on dark plastic, as you can't see the marks on white, light grey, or light yellow filaments.
Love this channel. Good work team, interesting machine. @Aurora, I happened to watch one of your early CNC reviews, kind of funny seeing the difference in your height since that video :D
I'm not entirely sure but if I recall correctly, an IR laser is not the same as a fiberlaser. I believe the IR laser is also a diode, just in a different wavelength similar to some fiberlaser. If that is correct, you should alter the title to avoid confusion.
Yes, you are right. Thanks for pointing this out; I just corrected the title and thumbnail. This 2W should be called an IR laser. After reviewing two other 20W diode + 20W fiber machines, I was a bit mixed up. The wavelength of this IR laser is 1064nm (fixed), with lower power and cost. I’ve only seen 2W available on consumer machines. On the other hand, a fiber laser can have varying wavelengths depending on the doped element used, and it generally has higher power (starting from 10W, with 20W being the most popular, like the xTool F1 Ultra and LP5 I reviewed recently, and going up to several hundred watts) and higher cost. Both can engrave on metal, but a low-power IR laser cannot engrave as deeply as a fiber laser.
The only thing i don't like is the wifi antenna location being in the cutting space where it can be exposed to heat, fire, ext. its not a deal killer at all but i would have liked a better location for the price but what ever. I can see my self getting this later this year.
You and your brother are still the BEST reviewing channel.Thorough yet succinct. Keep up the Good Work.
I agree to that!
I see Aurora upload I RUN to watch
I will say this channel had gotten me wondering if I want to get into laser cutting and engraving
Amazing how far technology has come in just such a short period of time. Amazing review as per usual!
Recreating that dog image and you and Helios produce CRAZY images, damn!!!

was running home from job to see this. thanks for a new video

Great review, it’s super informative ☺️

Wow, that is a nice little machine. Wish the working area was bigger though.
Could you please do a review on the Flashforge Adventurer 5M?
Thanks fot your video, You do it very well.
Please take a look at your title. You have F9 in the title, instead of G9
Thanks for pointing that out, just corrected.
Great video.
This thing scares me, but at least there's a cute photo of a dog on the box.
Should I get a Infemech tx or q1 pro
Q1 Pro
Can you do a review for bambu lab p1s
If you're thinking about buying it and it fits within your budget I would just get it. Great Printer!

Named better than the Pecker anyway. :D
11:50 why would you need a password for this???
A dongle in 2024, an interesting if somewhat regressive choice.
laser machines require it to get a rating.
👍🏻👍🏻
Optional smoke purifier? Huh, never considered purifying smoke. 😶🌫️😆
Wrong video title! Reads F9 instead of G9..
Mh.. I got an automated ❤, but the title wasn't corrected..
Just corrected! Thanks
I feel it's not that good for the price
It's currently on sale for $1379, does that look a little better? :)
@@AuroraTech no I rather make a diy one for like 200 bucks
Not good for price much better buy k40 laser machine more thing can do
