No Longer FS: "Pulse Jet" 635nm 550mW+
I majorly need to do some laser-spring-cleaning, so I've decided to put up for sale a build I showcased in this thread:
http://laserpointerforums.com/f50/pulse-jet-550mw-635nm-alkaline-build-71006.html
I wanted a build that could run on cells you'd find at a drug store. Hence the "Pulse Jet" laser, that runs on 3x AAA cells. Both Alkaline and NiMH AAAs work just fine, and provide him with enough juice to run full steam ahead at 550mW+. You could also likely use a single 22500 or 18500 lithium-ion cell if you wanted to. The "Pulse Jet" name is a result of it's resemblance to the engine of an aircraft or spaceship
This build uses one of the ultra-tiny ultro-low-dropout Mosquito RED drivers. The build LPMs at 550mW+ on my LaserBee, and peaks at over 600mW on my Ophir (during the first 45 seconds that aren't captured on a LaserBee USB 2.5W model).
You MUST NOT be a resident of Canada
You MUST own laser protection goggles appropriate for this wavelength, and
You MUST be over 20 years of age, and
You MUST be familiar and experienced with the appropriate safety precautions to take with lasers of this power.
This is not a laser pointing. At all times, protective laser safety glasses appropriate for this wavelength must be worn by the operator. This laser should not be used around 3rd parties (non-operators) pets, or for any recreational purpose.
This laser's purpose is use as a laser light source for LPM (laser power meter) sensors and meter system calibration. In order to ensure the most reliable calibration for your system, it is prudent to use multiple calibration lasers, representing multiple wavelengths, as well as multiple output powers, spanning the range of an LPM sensor's working detection range.
