Can laser tubes be recharged?
SSI / PLC / LEI laser tubes have a Copper ‘fill tube’ that is pinched off each time the laser tube is refilled. After you have refilled these tubes twice, this fill tube becomes too short and a complete new ‘fill tube / mirror mount’ must be put on the laser tube by the glass shop.
