Here I have taken a Mahoney Laser Power Probe and made some measurements on the actual output power of a 50W chinese ebay laser cutter.
The scene of the dial moving was a re-shoot and only goes up to 35W because I released the button a bit short. In careful measurements I do get 36W as my peak output power.
Prefer to read? Then I have article written about measurements at: http://makestuffnow.com.au/power-measurements
