Hey world,
I've been looking into this for a while, so I thought I'd just jump in and try it!
I wanna make a green laser using this module:
200mW 532nm Green Laser Module (3V 11.9mm) - Free Shipping - DealExtreme
I suppose the actual output would be between 100mW-150mW actually, yes?
The housing I want to use is:
Aurora SH-032 Stainless Steel Cree Q3-WC 3-Mode 160-Lumen Memory LED Flashlight (1*18650) - Free Shipping - DealExtreme
And the battery is a problem.. The only rechargable, protected battery with a large life is this:
TrustFire Protected 18650 Lithium Battery (2500mAh 2-Pack Blue) - Free Shipping - DealExtreme
The problem is that it's 3.7V, not 3V as the module needs. Would there be a large chance of frying the circuit and/or damaging/destroying the module?
This is my first project and first post!
Thanks heaps everyone!
