If you like to burn the way I do that sink will get hot in a few minutes, but I like it, it will get you several minutes depending on ambient air temp and cool down faster between runs, High drain cells are recommended to avoid sag, you'll draw 3 amps at 8 volts with a SXD to output 4.5a to the diode.

Here's one of my early 44's, it was finned too. :D

LOL Thanks guys ! I figured if this heat sink can keep a Overclocked Intel Core 2 Quad Extreme Processor QX9770 cool it should have no problem keeping a 44 copper module half way cool, I hope ! lol

"the heatsink of doom" I Like That, I Like That A lot ! :crackup:

LOL The first time I fire it up I'll be sure and do that just for you BUT you have to promise to bail me out of jail after I do it !

Is it a deal ? lol :crackup:

EDIT - diachi, lasersbee, Alaskan, I've just now seen your comment from your neg reps AND you 3 need to realize that all 3 of you are guilty of acting like a narcissist and if god forbid someone doesn't show you what you feel is the proper amount of respect OR act within what you consider the "proper" edict as determined by you (and for you) then look out ! I understand you all are very intelligent people and are very advanced in your receptive fields BUT people like that tend to lose all humility and become overbearing and demanding of people they subconsciously feel real or not are inferior to them and especially so in such a narrow interest group such as lasers for example, And hey i'll be honest I can't stand narcissist people BUT we can still all coexist in this forum and all get what we would like from it and also give back where and when we can, If you 3 can't behave with a reasonable amount humility and minimal amount respect while in my threads then I simply ask you stay out of them entirely OR if you would like you can check out my threads BUT don't comment on move on and I will certainly do the same and in that way we can all avoid stepping on anyone toes or bruising anyone ego ! I think that is a reasonable workaround assuming all 3 of you can be ok with me being here BUT not under any of your thumbs or me taking matching orders from any of you, There are PLENTY of other people here you can run roughshod over so all 3 of you just put me on your respective ignore lists AND leave me there AND forget about me and I will do the same ! Can ya do that ???

Well after some warnings from a few members here that have a 6W NUBM44 and how much heat they can make I decided to add some cooling so heat will never be a limiting factor, With the 6W NUBM44 450nm 25mm Copper Laser Module pressed into this new heat sink I don't think heat will ever be an issue now !






That is an awesome sink. Gotta ask, did you make that or buy it someplace ? If you bought it , if you wouldn't mind , where , gotta see if I can grab one . Thanks :)

It's from a CPU cooler I had for my Intel Core 2 Quad Extreme Processor QX9770, It was retired after I got a liquid cooling system for it a while back, It had a solid copper core in the middle that I pressed out of it a long time ago and I had the heat sink kicking around in my garage for years, I can't stand to through stuff like that away because you just never know when it could come in handy ! lol

Aren't we full of our selves.......

What makes you think we are roughshoding you.
YOU were the aggressive hard headed member that
just could not understand that Double posting is not
good Forum etiquette even after repeated attempts
to give you a friendly heads up....
You then posted that no-one will tell you what to do
like a defiant 10 year old.
That's when I decided to get your attention with a Neg
Rep....
Looks like it worked...

As to your uncontrolled and unnecessary rant...

Who are you to dictate to any member here on which
Thread we can and can not Post.
FYI.... This is a public Forum and ALL members may if
they so choose post on ANY thread they choose. That
is their right as out lined by the TOU.
If you don't want members to post on your threads...
then don't open the Thread.

You and You alone have placed an unjust and slanderous
label
on us that is a violation of the TOU.
You have also violated the LPF Terms Of Use (TOU) by
threatening us (then look out) which may result in a
Ban....

Bottom line is.... You don't run this Forum and hand out
ultimatums. If you can't follow the simple Etiquette rules
of this Forum without getting your panties in a bunch...
Maybe this Forum is not for you.

Yes.. PLEASE put me on your Ignore List...:beer:

I've never violated the LPF Terms Of Use, And rant ? lol You are losing it ! You really need to clam down and take a breath.....

I'm an adult, I don't need a ignore list to avoid your threads and I ask you again please stay out of mine, It's not to try and prevent you from expressing yourself or anything silly like that, It's to prevent any nastiness and bickering and it's the adult thing to do ! Simply avoid each other, Do I really need to explain that !

I can't help but see VG written all over this guys responses. VG used to threaten to come to my door step, did so with Cyp too. I begged him to come, wouldn't :p

I see you can't go a day or two without getting upset about something! If you don't want us to show up in your threads why don't you stop having little hissy fits/rants? Why don't you stop mentioning us in your "disclaimers"? You don't like the perfectly justifiable negative reps we left you? Tough.

Could have said nothing and none of us would be here right now responding...:thinking:
