Good day, laser enthusiasts!
I'm new to both lasers and this forum, and I wanted to say hello and ask a few questions.
I've read over the "I want to build a laser" topic, and I found drivers confusing and I didn't want to mess up my first laser. Because of this, I bought myself a laser module, not a laser diode.
So, my first question is:
Would it brutally murder my poor module if I hot-glued it in place?
and
Are there any safety features I should add to my first laser?
I so far have these features:
A shell, a power switch (which connects/disconnects the power, NOT turn the diode on and off), and a buzzer that goes off when the trigger is pulled. I also do I have laser goggles.
So can you guys think of anything else I should do?
Safety is my #1 concern, here. :tinfoil:
Thanks, a lot! :thanks:
