Where's Mrcrouse at? We need custom 5W 650 hosts built, stat!

Awesome work here Angelos, I didn't even see this coming at all! What else came with these mystical packages?

Any long distance beamshots? Really want to see what these things are made of!

To put the price of these into perspective, a 1W Cmount diode from LaserBTB is $165. the 1W laser itself is $345. This a great deal for 5W of 650nm!

Thanks.:)

Yes I will take Long beam shots for you guys tonight.

It is hard to move my setup so i think i can only get a beam shot at ~ 30 feet or so for you all.:)

If i can find away to bounce the beam off a optical mount i might be able to get even longer. But ill have to setup a table or a chair or something to hold the mount at the spot i need it.

Yes Exactly. Typical price now for a 1W C-mount diode is anywhere from ~$200 -$500 ive seen. Depending on the brand from overseas.

So i new most of you guys that know that would jump to see these at such a low price.:)

As for what else i got. Well we will have to see becuase i cant remeber all i ordered. I had close to 50 packages that i had to go through and there is still more then half to go.(Some are not exciting)

But thats all that was in this package. These and a couple new lenses to try.:)

Wow nice angelos! I saw the upload coming by this morning! Great man! Too bad that they are so hard to put in handhelds with the long focal point lens and huge battery drainage.

Anyway subscribed :beer: (BTW PM incoming)

Well, I give up, I can barely find any information saying it EXISTS yet alone finding the diode for sale :p

You win this round Angelos... I don't have the money to buy one at your price anyways :(

Are you sure it's just red you're hiding from us?

I am going to make some hand held kits as soon as I get some diodes in .I am getting 3 to test
the kit will be around $570 fan cooled and Thermoelectric Modules cooling lager heatsink
If I get the diodes in!!!
lazeerer is the man :drool:

Oh goodness... I gotta find some more records if you're having kits available ^

How do you figure its too hard.?LOL

C-mounts are pretty easy to build and even easier for the machinist making everything..

Second Cell drain.? LOL

This diode will drain less power from your cell then a 9mm 455nm diode running at Full.LOL

You should look into C-mounts. They are not that hard.

In fact they are just as easy as a standard 5.6mm Just just have to have the right parts.:)

Ha. i tried to save you the trouble.:p

All jokes aside though these are not bought online but phone calls. So dont waste your time. I know you are one of the best searchers.:p

I know there is 5W diode online When i was searching the cheapest i could find was ~ 1.5K FIRM and they where not branded and Not C-mount but a bar.

You guys no iam not to much of a diode seller. I just like finding new rare laser stuff for myself and if worth it for whoever wants any.

Ill have these available and those little ~1W 405 diodes will be in soon.:) (Bust lets stay on topic.)

I for sure do not have anything more powerful then these at the moment.:(

There is always tomorrow though.:p

Well i never looked into C-mount builds but i t seemed to me the distance to the lens is pretty big. BUT if you say it i believe it. Got to expand my horizon i believe :thinking: :p
