I have a
------------------------------------------------------------------
Diode + Lens: 445nm M140 Diode In Copper Module With Leads
& 405-G-2 Glass Lens (bought from DTR's shop)
Driver: 1.8A X-Drive V6 (bought from lazeerer)
and a Large Heatsink (milled by a great man that i cant recall the name of)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
when i hook up the laser to my power supply at 6.2 volts, it draws ~1.8 amps.
the laser appears bright at first then dims greatly.
what gives? i've had this project on the side for a long time now, but i want to finish and fix it. did i receive a bad diode or driver?:cryyy:
