Nope.:)
660nm/405nm PMMA Collimating Lens/M9 P0.5 Frame 2pcs - eBay (item 260555219850 end time Apr-14-11 01:13:32 PDT)

I use these on all my Red laser build now.;) They work better then the Aixiz 650nm glass ones. IMHO.

qumefox Sell them now too.:) Witch is much faster shipping then the ebay link i get them from. It takes almost 1 month to get the lens from ebay.:(

If i dint already order 10 of these lenses from the ebay guy i would have gotten them from qumefox. He is a great guy.:beer:

Yeah I can't really compete with china pricing.. not and it be worth my time anyway, so shipping speed, at least inside the US, is my main benefit, being roughly in the middle of the country.

Really. :) Cool. Yea iam waiting to get my Hosts in the Mail. I hate waiting for overseas mail.:(

By the way KD decide to stop carrying or sold out of the host that i originally was going to get so i just went with this one.


2 Gray and 2 Blacks.

I like this one because it uses 2x AAA rather then the smaller one that only uses 1X AAA.

Witch is the one you are getting as you suggested in the First page.:)

I have green pointer hosts and small switched with PCB on ebay. They are a good buy and can work out a deal for multiple quantity purchases. "Better" than Leadlight.
Various color combos: black with chrome and gold clips, all chrome. single (button) and dual (indicator) hole. I even have real GOLD Hosts- see way earlier post.
I have > 200 pcs in stock here in California. NO Foreign shipping wait needed!
Maybe this will help for 2AAA hosts.
See my signature for eBay link. PM not fast as I am not here too often.
<<EDIT>>
I even have real GOLD Hosts. These were discussed here last year .
here's my FS post of last year:

I wouldn't say you cant compete with overseas prices.;)

2xCoated Collimating Lens w M9/P0.5 Frame for Red Laser - eBay (item 120607777961 end time Apr-08-11 11:03:03 PDT)
This is usually the Prices for them.;) Witch is more then your sell them for.:)

So i think they are priced good and not to mention shipping is alot faster as you are From the US.

The other auction you listed though was less than half my price. Another downside for me is the source I have only ships EMS. So buying anything from them is pretty much a minumum of $30 shipping. So I have to buy a lot to make it worth it. And right now I just don't have the money to buy extremely large quantities of stuff. When things get to the point I can order lenses in 500-1000 quantities, my prices will drop somewhat.

Yes the first ones i linked is half your price but usually dont go for so cheap. I think its a special.

Regardless How much they coast they are great lens and i would rather pay a little more and get it from a member here on the forum that Will ship fast and will offer great service then to order overseas.

I would take that option always. Unless i dont mind waiting.:)

I used a 10.5mm module/blank lens assembly from lasers4u(Will). I used some copper tape to bring the diameter up to size for a semi press fit. Ill be transplanting Aixiz red glass lenses into them. Im not too impressed by the quality of the host though, but then again they were cheap. I ordered 4 and one of them the threads for the head dont hold.

One of the three I built:





Cool focus ring at front:yh:
If I knew there were enough pcs. need for any particular host, I'd have any diameter made up. I'd say 100 pcs. So if anyone wants to spearhead a GB with that type of part let me know. I just can't stock all the various sizes (of mostly heat sinks). I have thought I should have a 12mm version of the housing!
10.6mm??

I would love a 12mm version of this module, its awesome.

I tried transplanting the Aixis red AR glass into the blanks ... the glass is too close to the diode to focus, even at its full extension.
It needs a 0.2" spacer so the three elements can be as close to the front of the lens assembly as possible.
