Hi everyone. I know I haven't posted in a while because I've been really busy with school and the fiancee (recently got engaged!). Anyway, I basically haven't done anything laser related in about a year, so I figure it's time for me to sell most of my equipment and things I am not using - I could use the money. Of course I'm keeping all of my lasers (including the big argon one!) and a soldering iron for fixing up things around here and there if necessary, but most of the optics, hosts, etc. I have are really unnecessary for me now. Hopefully I can unload some of this onto you guys and the equipment will find nice new homes.
Obviously I am negotiable on prices, I'd just like to get at least some of my money back on some of these items. Note that shipping isn't included on these items, but we can talk about what method of shipping you want. Bundling will also help lower the price (both on my end and on USPSs end!).
Anyway, the list!
----------------------------------------------------
There is also something else that I would like to sell, and that is the design of my BlitzBucks and BlitzLinears. If you would like to discuss this, please PM me.
With regards to shipping - I will ship any way you want, but that'll be in addition to whatever price it is we decide on for the thing you're buying. Again, I am super flexible on the prices as well, so just PM me.
Thanks for looking. Hope I can sell some of this stuff!

Unopened LA1213-A ThorLabs lens
I initially bought this lens for the C-mount 650nm contest, but I didn't win and never ended up finishing the project anyway. Asking $15.
FandyFire V6 with Cree XM-L T6 LEDs
Used to use it as a torch but it just stopped working one night. Can be disassembled for host usage, but the shape of the reflector holder makes it difficult. I suggest repairs and use it as an awesome torch. Asking $20.
5x BlitzLinear Drivers, 0.1-1A
One BlitzLinear driver, each go between 0.1A and 1A. See http://laserpointerforums.com/f67/n...op-out-1a-adjustable-linear-driver-79920.html for more information. Remember that the entirety of the bottom of the driver is exposed copper, so good heatsinking! I'd like $5 for this. I can send it via typical mail, if that's desired.
Chicago Atomic Heat Gun
A heat gun with two settings, high and low, with high going over 700F. Not been used much, but very useful for stripping SMD boards that you don't care about the components for, and I have even used it for SMD soldering on boards that I can't toast. I'd like $15 for it.
Aluminum Foil Tape
A roll of aluminum foil tape, about 2" across (maybe 1.5"?) and I have no idea how many feet, but probably at least 45 feet (I've only used a few feet of it). Great if you want to make a TEA nitrogen laser, makes for easy capacitors. I was working on one but again, didn't have the time or spaaaaaace. I'd like $10 for it.
2x Unused Sierra Precision Optics -9 degree Wedge Prisms
As it sounds, there are two -9 degree wedge prisms from Sierra Precision Optics that I never used. I was planning on using them as corrective optics for C-mount beams, but never got around to it. They are very high quality. I would like $30 for them.
Various Projector Optics
More than 20 lenses, mirrors, and dichros from projectors I have gutted in the past few years. Most of the lenses are wrapped in paper towels. Obviously, they aren't lab grade protected, but for our uses, they should be fine. A few have chips in them. I'd like $40 for the lot.
2x Projector Fans
Two fans from a screen projector. Both pretty strong. I'd like $5 for them.
~5x Flyback Transformers
A collection of flyback transformers. I know for a fact that at least three of them work last time I tested them in a flyback circuit for HV generation. Useful to make your own HeNe psu or just to have fun with. Be careful! I'd like $20 for the lot.
Mastech HY1803D PSU
A Mastech PSU that we all know and love, this goes from 0-18V and 0-3A. Some of the side plastic has melted due to intense summer heat, but works fine. I'd like $50 for this please.
Analog Voltmeter
Exactly as it sounds. Unopened, never used. $5 please!
Bausch & Lomb Monochromator
Fairly accurate (within around +- 2nm, can be improved with photodiode sensor which we can talk about via PM) and ranges over the entire visual spectrum. Entirely mechanical and awesome piece of technology. Read more at http://laserpointerforums.com/f70/pic-heavy-got-monochromator-85763.html. I'd like $150 for it.
