Rep Power: 0  |  Greetings from the Netherlands.
Hello guys, my name is Dominik and I'm 16 years old. I live in the Netherlands. A couple of weeks ago, I started the idea that I want to make my own laser pointer starting with 100mW or so. I thought it wouldn't be that hard, so I had a couple of Dvd-drives that I disassembled. But the diode's didn't survive. First one fried (didn't knew at that time that you shouldn't hook them up directely to a power supply  ) second broke, because it didn't seem to get out of the heatsink. So I bought a couple of days ago, a Aixiz 5mW housing and a Xbox 360 HD DVD DRIVE 405nm Diode LASER LENS PHR-803T. Lets see if this time I can extract the diode. My question is: What would be the result if I extract the diode, and solder it to the driver already inside the Aixiz laser housing? Would I get a nice laser, for a start, or would the laser be the same as the 5mW one. Would you see the laser beam? Kindest Regards, Dominik |

Most cheaper laser diode/drivers are overspec, and iirc all bluray diodes require a different voltage than reds/greens. Look around the bluray forum, you will find all of your answers there. -Mike
