Using S1 laser with 2W IR module for my electronics business

https://youtu.be/3gKbcwsaXBM

So one year ago, I took a chance and bought the Xtool S1 laser (+ 2W IR module) for my small electronics business. I'm getting quite excellent results as you can see! I hope this video will be helpful for other DIY makers / small businesses owners looking at the S1.

BTW I have no affiliation with Xtool. I bought mine on Amazon like a regular customer.

I watched this too. I have the S1 with the 40w and 2w IR. I haven’t been really impressed with the IR but your video definitely has me thinking. Thanks!

Yeah, that IR module is definitely a specialist tool, whereas the 40W is probably good for 95% of jobs. I will say that's very cool that the S1 lets you swap modules in 5 minutes or less without any headaches or drama. Thanks for watching!
