Fiber amplifier

For investigating Ponderomotive effects, we may need ~100 kW circulating in the arm cavities. For this, we are looking at getting an amplifier to boost the 1W input we have right now. Some formal quotes / info from talking to sales reps:

After talking with NeoLase, one candidate is the NeoVan-2S-HP. Quote and specs: Quote.
Optional air cooling in case we want to avoid water cooling.
Need to confirm that the amplifier can be integrated with out Acromag slow control system.
Quote from OpticalEngines: Quote_opticalEngines
Spoke with rep from NPphotonics - expected quote is <$30,000 for an amplifier only.
NuFern (now Coherent) does not make amplifiers anymore, only MOPA.
