eBay ntxsupply unit (EZ-LAZE 532/355)

"New Wave Research EZ-LAZE 532 / 355 Power Supply & Control Panel & Foot Pedal"

Need power supply, this unit sounds very similar to mine and has the right connections. In negotiations to try to get this.

Overview:

Power supply:

eBay outback6 unit (EZ-LAZE 532)

"G102838 New Wave Research EZ-LAZE/532 Laser w/Power Supply & Controller"

A possibility, but its a complete system which means it will command a higher price...probably harder to break it up just to get the PS

Controller:

Pedal:

Power supply:

Laser head:

QuikLaze

I asked for a ezlaze manual and was given a quicklaze manual...w/e. Looks like they share a lot of common components

Interesting excerpt from manual: The QuikLaze is designed to operate on specially modified Mitutoyo FS60Y and FS50 and Ready products A-Zoom and S-Scope microscopes. Become familiar with your microscope before attempting to install the QuikLaze.

The quicklaze power supply looks pretty similar to the ezlaze power supply...possibly compatibile
