Let's say in a 5mW green laser pen (the cheap dx pen style, but from amazon and is more sturdy) you hold the button... for a few minutes. I held it running 7-8 minutes non-stop, but it did not overheat at all or even show any signs of failing (besides the fact that the batteries were getting run down ).
Is there a chance that you damage the diode or burn out the crystals from excessive usage like that?
