Need some advice for purchasing a 488 nm laser

Hello,

We are looking to buy a 488 nm solid state laser as a replacement for our Ar ion laser unit.

We are looking 100-200 mW power (cw) and found a couple of companies who offer at this power range.

We are particularly interested in Toptica laser, as their price is very competitive and their performance spec suits our applications (PALM, widefield imaging, FRAP).

Does anyone have any experience with their products, as we are not familiar with this company?

Any input/advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
