I received my psxboy bluray a couple of days ago. I hooked the diode up to about 35ma and it did all the fluorescing tricks that blurays do but it did not burn at all. A couple of days later I decided to play with the current a bit. at 50ma, still no burning (what gives) and the voltage across the diode was 4.5v. So i kept pushing. Only at about 70 ma does it start to lightly smoke tape and sting skin a bit. Its now at 80ma and with the volts across the diode at 5v. I am fairly sure the 80ma is an accurate reading because I measured it with 1 ohm resistor in series and then i removed the diode and read the amps directly. Its had about 15 mins at 80ma and 15 mins at all the other ma i tried.
Is there something wrong with my diode?
