hey guys,

The lens on my diode (not the lens that screws into the aixiz module) I guess has some water moisture on it or dust or something so i was wondering how to clean it. On the wall there is the dot in the middle and there is a blur around the outside. Yes i do know that blu-rays are "blurry" but this isnt blur it is actually part of the dot Any ideas? Like tissue or something? :-?

Thanks

Dont spray it at an angle, or just let everything settle then you can spray, clean air should come out :)
That happened to my friends diode, I helped him fix it that way, also i took a Q-tip and fluffed the cotten a little and Lightly spun it on the diode lens.
Hope I helped ;D

Generally with canned air I start the air spray, make sure no liquid is coming out, and then bring the diode towards it to blow stuff off. You'll need it for the Q-tip too, as it sometimes leaves bits of cotton on the lens which needs to be blown off.
