130W tube, possible to have good engraving and photo engraving?

Just good quality that can an 60-80w do because of smaller beam diameter and lower wattage

Here is an older post on the topic. “Good quality” on engraving has to do with the ability to control the beam. Either with power or diameter or both.

The problem with larger laser tubes is the minimum amount of power that it can output.

Here is a thread where @LightBurn explains why

CO2 Laser Tube Wattage and Engraving Quality?

I hope someone here can verify/clarify this for me. I read someplace (cant find it now) about engraving performance with a high wattage tube. Something about the high watt tube (130w) does not fire “as well” or “at all” at lower % as say a lower watt (80w) tube would. I read it on the internet so its got to be true
