What is a LOC and how do you use it?

Ok, I have been trying to find the answer to this but I failed. O please dear fellas, give me some guidance
An long open can diode I have seen, but can u use it just like a closed can diode? From where do you get open can diodes? Blu-rays?

Hey,

You can find them here: http://www.laserpointerforums.com/forums/YaBB.pl?num=1223231352/0

You use a LOC just like any other red diode, by mounting in a module aixiz or meredith and supplying the appropriate current, the thing is that due to their long die they are capable taking around 420ma of current. With a meredith glass lens powers of 300mw are not uncommon.
