My GCC's red laser is always on (by choice) and always thru the lens- The red laser is mounted just beyond the main tube's snout, and its red beam passes right thru the main beam to a mirror where it's reflected to the main #1 mirror, from there both beams follow the same path to and thru the lens. Whether on or off, I can't discern any power difference. I have a GaAs lens that is completely opaque to my eyes, total black, and a red laser won't pass thru it either, but it's totally transparent to a 10.6 micron C02 beam. I'm thinking the different wavelengths of the 2 lasers make them invisible to each other...
