In Moh's J.A.D kits he sits a round driver in it and solders the drivers negative ring to the brass ring to ensure a good negative contact to the host before pressing it into the pill.

Nice build! I think that's the first one I've seen used for a 405nm.

Thanks!

It makes for a really nice 405 host. I tore it down to get the driver out for my red build though. I am going to try for >600mW this time. Hopefully it will be back together by Monday with higher numbers!

I now have the SL-SS1LHA version of this host available with the extended (but not tapered) copper heat sink:



The SL-SS1LHA is an unmarked, brushed finish stainless steel host assembly for a handheld laser that includes the laser body (retaining ring, heat sink holder, battery holder and tail cap with "clicky" switch and wrist strap), driver pill, brass ring, an extended copper heat sink with set screw and a 0.050" Allen wrench. The heat sink is machined to fit a standard 12mm diameter diode module.



Does not come with diode, driver circuit or other laser components. Can be used with P/N SL-DDM1 diode & driver module, for an SL-I host upgrade, or in your own custom build. We recommend that the driver wires be approximately 1" long for the diode module to fit properly. Not recommended for use with the other SL diode and driver modules because the driver wires are too long and can get trapped between the heat sink and pill unless extreme care is used during assembly.



Does not work with the SL-CFA1 Conical Focus Adapter, but an extended length focusing ring is recommended because the heat sink is recessed within the host.

Designed for use with two rechargeable RCR123A or disposable CR123A batteries, or a single 18650 battery depending on diode and driver used.

Price is $40.49 plus shipping with the LPF discount.

These hosts are beautiful man! I liked them when I first saw them and I like them even more now! Just ordered 2 of the original heatsink style:can:! Thanks man!!

The other half of the fun is building the laser and then using it.
