Will buy another 2 Jake. I've already broken 10 out of 13 diodes i've gotten from you, drew, and Blu-ray..... but i'll keep continuing to try (just broke the two PHR-803t diodes I got today from drew - would've bought from you, but you were sold out). I've built two lasers in cheap plastic housings (i don't like either of them), but I did recently build a VERY small one which runs off 4 button cell batteries (used a DDL driver), and that one i LOVE. So.... i'll keep trying even though, for the most part, I've been wasting all my money on broken stuff.
BTW: are you getting any PHR-803t in soon? Like I said, I've just broke all of mine, so I guess I'll be needing a few (prob another 2).
Hey buddy, when you say that you break them -How? Is it from too much heat for too long , or is it when you harvest them?
Let the forum know we can help.......many have been there at some point . (- :
Thanks lol... lets hope I don't break those two too (fingers crossed) ... I'm fine if I only break one, just not both (same thing w/ the two LPC i ordered from you recently). I already have the host and the heatsink all ready (I made the heatsink - even though I don't have a lathe) now, I gotta make my DDL driver small enough to fit it in my MXDL host. You see, the way I think of it... as long as I don't break 1 out of every 3 diodes + I use a DDL driver.... it's still cheaper than 1 already made module w/ a rckstr.
