405nm drivers that fits Aixiz module good for PEN build - Laser Pointer Forums

matrixcs · 09-30-2009, 01:50 AM

Hi guys here is my size comparison based on what drivers i have..

1 rckstr fixed current
1 o-like 405nm driver
1 flxdrive v4.

all fits aixiz module casing.. Good for PEN build.

PROS: these drivers performed well. both the flex drive and o-like driver uses 2 AAA batteries and they serve well.

the Rckstr driver also works well too using 2 10440 batteries...

FITS the back casing of the Aixiz module if you are going to build a PEN type BR.

CONS: just dont let these drivers touch the inside case.. you will probably short the whole circuit and damage the driver..

-- o-like driver is super sensitive and unstable when it comes to current spike.. if you are to use this on a PHR diode.. just set it to 100mA it will be safe of your diode..

OTHER THOUGHTS: hehehe im going to order the variable rckstr driver and the v5 flexdrive..

here is the picture..

matrixcs;

I've used the Rayfoss BR step-up driver @ 180 & 200 ma settings in this build.

It was small enough to fit in the Axiz 12mm module.

i see larry i will be ordering the rayfoss one too.. so i can complete my review and comparison of these drivers..

is this the driver you used?

rayfoss 405nm driver

LarryDFW · 10-01-2009, 03:30 AM

Yes; that is the driver I used.

In a pen, it is negative to the spring.

In my host, I just wired it with the positive toward the LD.

Thank you for the link to the o-like driver!
I did not know that they made them... I need to try one now.

no problem!! update.. rayfoss 405nm driver is 100% similar to o-like..
