E bay kits

Hello, what do people think about ebay laser kits for the novice

300mW 650nm Red Burning Laser Diode Module w/Driver Kit on eBay (end time 13-Oct-09 05:46:47 BST)

Well... if you don't want to build the same laser for a lot less buying the parts
here on the Forum... then the kit is OK...

You still need batteries, wire, solder, soldering iron, multimeter... etc.

BTW that driver is probably the DIY DDL Driver that is all over the Forum...

I think that (as per normal) you are overstating the safe output of the diode/laser.

I think that for less money someone can make one with a ready made Rkcstr with parts bought through people here.

I think that for the same price (for the next 5 at least) they can get one already assembled that will be putting out what this kit SHOULD be safely putting out
