IT'S BEEN SOLD!
or has it....?:thinking:
I'm putting up for sale this pointer I made here:
http://laserpointerforums.com/f42/635nm-40mw-pointer-build-61949.html
Runs on a 14500, or optionally 2xAA.
I don't know how many mW it has exactly, but if you focus it down with a lens
it'll smoke the dark electrical tape, if that tells you anything...:undecided:
It is very bright though, almost as bright as a DVD diode at 400mA,
but since it runs at much lower current ~100ma and lower voltage too,
it doesn't seem to heat up much at all, and is easy on the batteries too.
Put in an AR-covered lens like the ones qumefox is offering and it'll be even brighter.
I'm just a little undecided as to how about I should go about this?
an auction or ask for a high price to begin with and bump it down as time goes by and noone buys it?
Especially since that it seems very unlikely to get another one of these diodes anytime soon.
Special little diode, such nice color and visibility for so little power, flawless emission profile,
the most gaussian distributed diode I've ever seen.
