Wanting to buy a laser for the greys but wanting more info on why to get certain types why not and where to get them from.

I have a Winning Edge Laser, very reliable, very efficient, made in S.A., very widely used by the GREYHOUND fraternity in Oz. Can be used via Battery or direct from power point via DC plug [supplied].

Go to your local human physio and ask him how effective they are and does he/she have one. There are some traps.

Cannot go wrong with Winning edge been around a long time and the price is very good and it works great .I have the 500mw cluster and i have used it for about 5 years every day and its still is going strong but i do believe you need to do your homework because many people have something they call a laser but its just a bunch of red lights .Jacks Ogilvie lasers are the real deal also and you can buy some very good lasers from JB lasers and from other people. Australia have lasers that are the real deal and if you buy from overseas you have to be careful .

Jamie lasers aint lasers like the old oil add. Modern technology has now produced equipment like drill, saws so on that tradies use that operate on batteries, they prefer this technology than than long leads.Our lasers are using the cable free technology where there is no lose of power to the diode.
Our GPP has 300 milli watts of power works on the best and most effective wave length the 808 infa red wave length. our GPPIFR 3200 has double the power to each diode 25o milli watts x 2 diodes compared to the winning edge unit at 125 milli watts this is the power of the unit.Our GPP IFR 3200 can penetrate over two and a half inches into the muscle the winning edge init is half that .Our GPP IFR is a single diode unit that will penetrate down 3 inches.our unit has settings for skeletal injuries as well as settings for medium and deep seated injuries. Cheers Jack. ps over 70 of these units were sold world wide last year.

Thanks for the info jack. For a young person I still like to say I'm old school. My checker strongy suggests the laser run straight from the power in the wall not a battery but I am after a latest model laser so of course standards upgrade over the time.
Gives me lots of good for thought too!

Is there a contact number for him? Out of 6 attempts to get hold of the company that does the winning edge lasers my patience is wearing thin. Any company that cant answer their phone just annoys me as how can i obtain their services.
Awaiting a response on the lasermed one too from that company. No companies put pricing on anything nowadays lol.

Jamie can I suggest you read the articles at the link below on the laser FAQ [Frequently Asked Questions]. I'm sure it will be very enlightening for you.
EXTERNAL LINK It is generally accepted depth of penetration of the laser is dependant moreso on the WAVELENGTH of the laser than the power.

Jamie my provider was down for a couple of days ,all up and going again.Howard your advice is part right it's a combination of the wave length and the milliwatts of power that makes the difference.Also the article refers to class 4 lasers. Not class 3 B cold lasers that are permitted in Australia. Go to greyhound performance products lasers.unlike some i'am not allowed to put a link up. You can phone me . Cheers Jack.
