Hey guys bought this kit last year as a graduation gift for myself :san:. though never build it until this past Christmas :san:
But now I have a bigger one and don't really want 2 High powered handhelds laying around.
I payed $50 for the kit $30 for the driver and $45 I think for the diode. I'm not trying to turn a profit so Ill be happy if I get $125 But im open to offers.

NOTE Only US lower 48 buyers please Sry but i dont want to deal with any customs hassle.

The glow in the dark Rubber cap for the click is missing Sry.
I took the switch apart to unjam it and set it aside before I resembled it (bad mistake because the glow in the dark peace disappeared.) The good news was the switch just had a plastic shaving in it jamming it.

Ignore the average because I had it on for a pit before i turned on the laser. :undecided:

BUMP- I vouch for this member-

Zach may be young, but makes up for that with his enthausiasm.

I am not interested in this sorry but out of curiosity, why only 700mW? Really inefficient diode?

NO just a low setting on the driver. when I made the laser my power meter did not work so I just got it as bright of a beam as I could :p

Click to expand...


Running at a less than max current can mean cooler running and longer life.
there is no visible diff, between 700 and 1W.

To double the perceived brightness of a 700mW you need a 2.8W laser of the same nm. Its a factor of 4. not 2.

another bump for Zach

and my guess- A-140 diode and a Mohgasm driver--set at 650mA

Hey guys sorry for the inactivity the driver is a flex drive I bought from weidmark and the diode is an M140 I bought in person at selem.
It comes with 1 TR14500 battery but no charger sorry.

This is a nice looking laser at a conservative power, looks great! Free Bump :beer:
