    Changing from 60watt to 80 watt laser tube

    Going to be replacing 60watt tube on laser soon, but I was wondering, how hard would it be to change to an 80watt? I'm sure I'll need a power supply (80) and the tube, of course, but are there any other details I need to be aware of? Electrical? Glass CO2 chinese tube I'm sure...

    The length of the tube is about the only other thing you need to consider.

    right tube lenght you will need to extend the tube housing case beyond the machine they have prefab kits for this
