Help me...

I got a 50mW laser today, worked fine and everything... after a few hours, it just stopped working, the light became really dim and the beam just wasn't visible - according to the FAQs, I think my laser got ruined. Is that true?
PS i tried replacing the batteries. didn't work.

did you drop it or try to pot mod it?

either you ran it too long in one go with no duty cycle, or it was a pre pot modded one of DX

OK, no problem, i'll just use warranty.
thanks for the help
