Alright, now I know that the socket was too good to be true. But that still leave a problem, how do I get my self to the point where I can solder without busting the diode?
Thanks
Richo
I'm just worried about the heat damage I could couse to the diode. I'm more than capable in soldering and by using the SOCKET I can eliminate this factor.
Thanks
Awesome
Thanks Kenom, I just e-mailed them to see if they ship to Australia, because they're in Austria and I don't know if they do. This should help heaps, because I can't solder.
Thanks
Hey
I was looking for a diode pin spacer. I have seen these before and they're like a plastic thing that you can plug the diode into and solder the power supply to the spacer. I was wondering if anybody knew where to buy these and if they shipped internationally?

Hey Jayrob,
That looks like a great host and a good home for my first laser :P
How mich will it cost shipped to Switzerland and how do I pay?
Thanks Mate

Thanks rog8811
Your website will help me alot in this hobby and i will be sure to practise my soldering within the next couple of days.
I just recieved (literally) my Micro-Drive v3 and its TINY! I didn't realise how small it would be so i will study your guide and become a master of the iron! :P
hello,
I was just wondering if anyone can send me a circuit diagram of a 1 ohm test load (or something that would give me round 1mV:1mA) that would be great!
I'm building my first laser (PHR-803T) and i rushed in way to quick and didn't buy a test load (dumb, i know). I've been trolling LPF...
Thanks guys,
I need a fair bit of help because I'm new at this hobby (like, REALLY) and I would like to know stuff about lasers.
Also, I live in Perth, Australia, so it's no wonder that I'm new!

I have another question aswell: is mW the electrical output of the driver (i.e can it be measured?) or is it the light output of the laser? when it's light output then how many mA should i put through the driver to get round 150-200 mW from the PHR-803T?
Thanks
Richo
Hello,
I'm a complete and total noob when it comes to lasers and I was wandering if you (the pro's) know any good websites with some good information about how lasers work and just general info.
I was thinking of building my first laser (405nm PHR-803T) but first i think it's important to know...
