Re: Lava Micro FlexDrive Driver (lavadrive2) fits

is it possible to get one of these drivers for a blu-ray diode, but pre cut so it fits into an aixiz case?

I haven't seen the newest version, but the drlava flexdrive can't be cut down to fit inside a module. It can be cut down enough to fit inside a pen type host (like an LEDlight), but that is about it. I think that the only "commercially" available driver that fits inside an AixiZ is the Rkcstr driver. There are some others that are available as "custom" builds.

Peace,
dave

Re: Lava Micro FlexDrive Driver (lavadrive2) fits

Contact Rkcstr or IgorT.

Peace,

P.S. 5V is too little for the 803T at higher outputs.

Why do you want it to fit inside the aixiz casing? I can't think of too many reasons this would be desirable.

robjdixon, for some reason it was returned to me in the mail after a few weeks (I think the post office confused sender and recipient). I'll try mailing it again.

I was just thinking the same thing. Unless you are limited by the "host" in a hand held, why put it inside an AixiZ?

Peace,

I'm using three AAA's and pushing 185mW out with a flexdrive.

You'll have to have drlava explain it (I talk for a living), but if you add another battery, make sure you turn the current back down before you power up the diode.

Peace,
dave

[highlight]**EDIT**[/highlight] Something else just struck me. Are you using the "low range" (blu-ray) driver? To get to the higher outputs, you need the high range driver. My 185mW unit is being driven by 200mA. I routinely drive these at 180mA.
