Hey Keith, it's a RedSail Laser with an RECI 100w tube ( which is suppose to go to a max. of 130w but as I said to the manufacturer, if I am at 80% is that 80% of the 100w or 130w, Very Strange stating a 100w - 130w but that's another story )

In the below photo you will see the additional Addon RedSail do to turn an 80w Laser into accepting a longer 100w tube, add a metalbox to the positive end with a clear Acrylic Top. ( top right of photo )

I bought a tube of silicone today and plan to put a big dob of it around where the metal end cap fits onto the Glass Laser Tube and where the small screw connect the Positive wire to this cap. Then once dry I will try again. Until then I'm not turning it on as I don't want to damage the tube. I have contacted RedSail about the issue but they will be on holiday for another 8 days due to the Chinese New Year.
