jnrpop;
The IR diode voltage is much lower.
The rest of the voltage is dropped accross the driver.
Probably about 1.5-1.6 VDC. The rest of the voltage is dropped accross the driver.
So, power #1 is ~ (1.5 x 0.37) or 550mw.
So, power #2 is ~ (1.5 x 0.32) or 480mw.

50mW when they were rated for 10-20mW (methods witheld).
You know it's worth it John ;-)I am now in trouble with the wife cause i ordered more of these 5mW units on steroids

It seems this batch of DX true 5mW greenies are using the same 250mW IR pump diode and driver as the DX true 50mW greenies.
Say, why do you use the un-fused, 10A+ port of your DMM? Thxuse a multimeter, in position ampmeter. ...
