Thread: U.S. Disributor for EFR lasers

  1. #1

    U.S. Disributor for EFR lasers

    I folks,
    In school we have a king Rabbit HX1290 that was donated to us. Since getting our hands on it, I've put in a LO x7 DSP and a relay for the air assist. So far, it has done well but I think the 80w tube is starting to go. We can't burn through 1/2" ply like we can with our other 80w reci tubed laser.

    We would like to replace it with another Efr laser but maybe a different series other than the "F" model that we have but I'm having trouble finding a reseller or a distributer in the US. Can someone please point us in the right direction?

    Thanks!

    You might ask Rabbit Laser USA. If they don't have them they might be able to point you in the right direction. Call them don't email.

    Hi Chris,

    I know this is not a US contact, however Andy Zhu at Bejing EFR is very pleasant to deal with, perhaps he could help you find a US re-seller? His email is: (andyzhu at bjefrlasew dot com dot cn)

    Kind Regards, John

    Thanks for the heads up Dave! We don't need to purchase right away and this will be a multi year investment so we would definitely like the latest and greatest. I wish we could afford an 80w RF laser but that's just not going to happen.

    with what is on the horizon there will be no need for the RF

    That would be great! If that's the reality I would get one for my machine at home too.

    i am curios... what can they show so good?
    as for efr, they don't sell just a tube... they want you to buy at least 4...
    i've talked with them this week... so, if you can't afford to stock 3 spare tubes, you need to find another seller

    I think you might have them confused with RECI who will only give you a wholesale price if you buy 5 tubes (or something like that ). I have bought single tubes and power supplies from EFR on 2 occasions fairly recently. I found their service and quality to be first rate.

    Wish I could at this point keith, what I am allowed to say is longer life and better beam profiles at reduced prices are on the way
    You did what !

    if you only want 1 laser tube, it's convenient to buy it on ebay.

    i am verry sorry for my late reply, but trust my words: none of the EFR agents wanted to take my money for two laser tubes and power supply... they asked me to buy 4 tubes at least...
    it is against my ethic to post conversations with them, but i have no reasons to lie about that...
    i talked with 4 agents who sell efr tubes, including Andy and Frank... they are good guys, but they have some orders from their supperiors i guess...
    as for RECI, they sell even one tube, but not at lowest price... they have "premium client price", for orders above 5000USD...
    i am stuck with reci, becouse i can't afford to pay a truck of money for shipping to romania, 2 laser tubes and a powersupply from efr and i can't afford to take four tube eighter... ...
    i will order them this week from gweike, my sweet nightmare...
    it will be my last try before selling the machine and my soul for a US BRAND LASER...
