Laser wiring

[jbailey19]

I hooked my 40 watt laser tube up for the first time per the instruction manual and all I get is a brief flicker of light in the tube. Does the tube need to warm up?

There should be a constant 'pink color' light happen to the tube once it's power up and runs normal. It may show little movement of the light but not flicking.

Check the power swtich on the back of the PS. The PS is 110V and 220V selective. Make sure it's set to 110V. I think the the flicking is caused by wrong power seting. Also, check the output wire is firmly connect to the laser tube. If not, it's easy to get "jump fire"
