What's the current draw off the DX 50/100mw Green?

danielbriggs · Dec 3, 2007

Hi,

Basically as per the title: What's the current draw off the DX 50/100mw Green?
Specifically this one: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10096

I'm interested in hooking this up to a Die4Drive, but the most current it can supply is 1A. So I wondered if someone could hook this up a meter to see how much current this guzzles (from the diode) not the PCB PSU, as I'm going to rip that one out hopefully.
Thanks!

Dan

My DX100 drew .5 (died after 1 hour. Think pump diode died)and my DX50 draws .35
and it's got to have 3v or it's weak! Oh and it's a non true but it's a Newwish.

DX 100 808nm open case pump diode

The DX50 modulle with the focusing lens unscrewed.
Notice the green glue holding the OC allined with the main module.

Nd:YVO4/KDP .7*.7*2mm crystal glued with stuff like bathtub caulk.
End showing has 1064 and 532 HR and 808 AR coatings. The pump laser should be as close to this end as ?

This is the KTP side of crystal set. DX100mW

'Tis probably a form of thermally conductive epoxy.

Notice the Newwish Logo on this DX 30mw copper mod.. The LD is kept tight with a lens nut & set with glue so it's a bitch to loosen.

Hey Laser Rod! Thanks for those awesome pics!
But I was actually referring to the 'labby' module, that has recently appeared on DX. I think yellow.sir.name bought one, but that might have been the red 100mw.

Thanks,

Dan

I may be the 1st to get that labby. I will post ASAP. After all I made DX change the specs. to 50mW because of the picture Newwish had.

6 more days till possible hands-on.

Yea, I love to post pics. More will come, higher qual. and higher mag. too. I got to show you guys I not full of..... I've been too lazy I know...

I'm hoping to get some some questions answered ............... TTL... Sparkle..... Hard seal....... pulsing.....

I'm buying some crystals for my pump diodes today...... Hope my black cloud...

Cheers,

I have no idea how do you open glued part of DealExtreme lasers

Really, that's surprising considering you asked in the thread below and were given at least three methods. I will keep that in mind before offering you any future advice or information.
