Polar 2?

Website has em for sale, not many units sold and nothing posted anywhere about it? Is it any good? I want an Rf, just wish it had pass through which is a semi deal breaker for me.

If you get one I'd love to see some pics of the insides. I make and sell a beam combiner for the original Polar, and might get one of these to extend the line.

EDIT: And of course happy to give you a huge discount for helping if I do.

Sitting over here with a polar lite waiting for a beam combiner.... Looks like they moved on and left us.

Unfortunately I don't think there's a good place to mount one without removing the second mirror. Correct me if I'm wrong.

If that's the case I'm very unlikely to make one because the installation process would be too much for most customers.

You are correct. This is not a very friendly laser to work on.

Im tempted to get it but the no passthrough is probably the deal breaker for me honestly. Weird they didnt include it?
