Hey all,
Im new here I bought a K40 off eBay and was told it was virtually new. Get it home, evidently is far from that.
Anyways - it also turns out it's a K40 'MINI' with only enough space for a 600mm tube (ie 30W) can I simply make room for the 700mm tube and hook it up to the standard power supply?
My plan is to cut a hole in the side of the case and use a 100mm PVC pipe to keep it protected. Would this work?
Thanks

Re: Upgrading laser in K40
basically no. you have to find out what power supply unit (PSU) the unit came with, find the model number on the PSU and do a simple google search to find out what watt laser can be powered by it. if your going to change the tube on a K40 i would have thought that it would be cheaper just to buy another unit from a reputable seller . they are so cheap that people do not carry out major repairs on them just performance upgrades, after all they where only designed for rubber stamp making.
