Here's what's left of my G1 WL Arctic.



Any good kill suggestions?

edit: LED'd it about 10 minutes ago, the heatsink is maybe ~150 degrees (F). Can't hold it anymore... Still lasing though

I say put it in front of a Co2 laser :D it'll get much hotter than 150 deg.

Ah well you see the host is gone for it's own reasons-- This thing has survived through a lot. First of all I beat the hell out of it. After a lot of that, the screw threads became stripped and just a pain in the ass to use. So, my solution: give it (and WL's glasses of course, the "full set") to my chemistry teacher because I finally got a replacement. He killed the driver (left it on for maybe 6 hours straight). I eventually got it back and decided to (very quickly) take it apart and salvage what I could... The host should be in many pieces at the dump by now :)

As for the CO2, I've debated getting one, still too powerful for my liking. (Plus, I'm sixteen and I have no idea how I'd get my parents to allow me to buy "a two foot long water cooled laser tube that cuts steel")
Yeah, I'm sixteen and own a 2.2W 450nm laser, I'm ready for the imminent :gun:

Rigged a few 9-volt batteries together, still not dead.... What is this thing?!
As for WL, I'll have a few albums ready ;)
