So I have two Spartan hosts from DragonLasers. The 1W blue one pictured first, I tried to clean the diode lens at one point and seemed to make it worse.
The diode needs to be replaced now. This is deep down in the host and am unsure of how to even get it out. The next one is a green laser older Spartan host design.
It is just the lens right underneath the cap that I have screwed off in the picture. It has a scratch on it and needs to be replaced.
Would anybody who knows about DL hosts be able to carefully fix this?
The green one is easier since the paste just has to be chipped away and get a new lens there, but I'm not sure what kind of lens it is. The 1W I don't even know how to get out.
I would rather not have to send it back to China because of high shipping costs obviously and I have to claim it as under $25 to get into China. That would suck if it got lost.
Also the recent blunder with RHD and his laser makes me wary to send something back to them.
