Host: Chrome Pen Host (Purchased from Jayrob on lpf)
Diode:XJ-130
Wavelength: 445nm
Output Power: ~120mW (estimated from test data LINK)
Style: Pen Host
Focusable: Yes because Aixiz Module
Power Source: x2 10440 Batteries
Ease of Assembly (1 easy -5 hard): 3 because inside there are very small components that needed soldered
Host Rating: 4/5 it was exactly as advertised, a bit difficult of a build though

Comments: I really like this laser. The 445nm color compared to the 405nm is different in a very nice way. The power is estimated at 120mW due the current of 300mA. In of the laser I have a driver, a circut board and holder for a switch, 2 10440 Li-Ion batteries and a spacer. My build is case positive. This is a great laser to play around with, it isn’t as bright as my S3 Arctic, but it’s powerful enough. The two things I do want to mention though. 1. This doesn’t really have a heat sink so heat builds up quick and it has about a 30/60 second duty cycle. 2. This host is designed for another type of battery so a magnetic spacer was put in place to connect everything up. I didn’t state this any where else, but this was a custom built laser that I made.
