Your first thoughts when you saw the 1W 445nm diode for $50 thread

[madog]

gotta find some stuff to sell!

I heard it in a PM from Len/Hakzaw... When he said $50 i just kinda read the rest of the message and nodded, dismissing it, like "Well I don't think he missed a zero but he's gotta be wrong about that" - figuring maybe he meant good 405's for $50 or something, and mistyped 445.

Then I got to thinking about it during the day... "wait... maybe -- oh hell, I'll bite." and looked at the threads and saw *that pic* of the projector with its array shining.

Then I started scrambling and PMing EF and MarioMaster to get in on the buy, and get a host buy set up with Jayrob.

First DIY diode build's gonna be a 445nm. How 'bout that.

First thought-Holy Sh*t--

second thoughs---remembering posts here with stuff like---' Where can I get a laser that cuts flesh?' and 'Mine does not feel very hot on my arm, but it gets pretty hot when I shine it on my lips' and ' where can I get laser googles for around 10$?' and so many other moronic questions and statements....

I had a bad gut feeling. This is not going to be 'all good'--IMHO

Same Hak.

Now its sunk in, I don't really think it is such a great thing at all. I'm worried:tinfoil::scowl:

 

[HIMNL9]

My first thoughts ? .....

"Damn, only 14W of blue, and only blue ..... and also, not a single diode, but divided in 24 ..... i was hoping something better, for that price ..... "

:na: J/K (i know that someone, here, was expecting that someone post something similar, first or after ..... ROTFL )

 

[scopeguy20]

My first reaction, I must have one! MuHaHa MuHaha Muhahahahaha...

Yeah Rob ... me too-- I thought about :yabbmad:things that I do not even want to put out there publically-- no sense giving a 'bad' person any new ideas.
I see, however, no turning back now--:shhh:

Looming Doom--
