Looking for Flexible/adjustable caps and fiber optic cables for laser
Greetings ALL
I have a 4mw laser pen that I would like to put a cap on so I can direct the laser light
In the direction I choose. Is there something like this out there? I know they have the flexlights
http://www.thinkgeek.com/cubegoodies/lights/5a84/ but these have the light at the end I would like to have the light at the backend and have the laser light
travel down the fiber optic line. See animation below link of what I?m trying to find/build

I don't recall what the typical spreading figures are for lasers, but you don't want, for example, a one inch diameter spot landing on the moon because you'll never find it with the telescope that you'll want to use to see the reflected light. ... So, you aim for maybe a 10-100 mile diameter spot on the moon over which you spray the laser light, and then have the same or different telescope with the same power to see all of that same 10-100 mile diameter area. ... Factor in surface irregularity induced dispersion and phase distortion induced interference and scattering and overall reflection efficiency goes down quite a bit. ... (sci.research.careers)
