Re: New 1.1-2.5W 445nm Flash Freeze Lasers starting at $110 free US shipping

These 18350's generally work in pairs with most hosts that use 1 18650?

Why aren't these used over 16340?

18350 cells can usually fit inside the place of one 18650 yes. You can only use two cells in the place of one if the device is designed for it otherwise you will fry it. These lasers are designed for two cell operation so two 18350s work fine but a single 18650 will result in drastically reduced output.

Cost of the 18350s is about 4x. I will be working on getting them eventually when I am more financially capable of high bulk to keep prices down.

The last laser in stock has sold. I am expecting two more lasers to be completed tomorrow.

I received the laser today. I will hopefully have some pics up soon. It's right at 2W (peak) with the standard glass lens.

Good to hear it arrived and unscathed. I do test each laser 10+ times total and at least 3x after its final and completed laser to assure output. Its always good to hear an outside measurement backing my tests though.

Your laser, being 2W, would be set to 1.85A.

Also, I have built one more laser and its final output is 2.1W and it can occasionally peak to 2.2W. It is up for grabs and likely going to be the last one for another week at least.

Thanks for the praise man.

Update on the lasers:
One Flash Freeze laser remains of the 2.1W output on a 3-element lens. This laser is capable of 2.5W on a G2 lens if the upgrade is desired. I am capable of switching the host of this laser to a Black Ice if the buyer desires for no extra cost.

I will likely have another batch of lasers about a week out though it depends on my parts arriving. The next batch will be Black Ice.

Received the laser yesterday. I am no expert in this area but it seems like a quality piece. I am impressed. Thanks

Glad you like it bro.

Guys, there is one remaining 2.1W laser still up for grabs. I am able to make it a Black Ice or a Flash Freeze upon request.

UPDATE: All lasers sold. More are expected by Thursday of this week.

If I had a chance I prefer black ice . I am still waiting for my flash freeze.
Sometimes waiting really kills. :)
I ordered 18350 batteries from DX with some other goods. Guess what!
Other goods were shipped but batteries are still waiting for shipment.
I am sure I will have no batteries when my flash freeze arrives.

Unfortunately international shipping just isn't as fast as it is if you are buying inside the US. That is unless you want to pay quite a bit more. Hopefully eventually I will be able to move lithium cells over seas but for now its blocked.

UPDATE: The remaining parts came in so I will be building and testing now and tomorrow. Hopefully I can get them done before work tomorrow.
