Yeah I figured with it being a player I wouldn't get a ton out of it. Maybe just a quick little mess around project. Thanks for the info :)

Hey guys, I've been gone for a bit but I'm in the process of getting back into the "Hobby". I've been searching around for a good returning project so I'm just kinda gathering info at the moment. I have a samsung BD-D5100 that's been sitting around in the closet for a couple years, I can...

I managed to come across a k3563 regulator with a heatsink on it. I was curious if this will work in a driver circuit like the lm317 or if anyone can tell me much more about it.

Thanks guys, I'll look research it a little more :)

So I have my olike 405nm 400mW and my first build red with a lm317 I've been curious about gas lasers as well though. What are the benefits / downfalls to a gas laser? how exactly do they work? What are the differences between argon, co2, and HeNe? I didn't see any kind of "hey this is what...

3 pictures at 3x3 lol but i guess that could be considered one long picture. Anytime, thats what I'm here for. I'm glad you got it fixed! I wish I had caught your post before I had ordered mine or I would have done the same. I'm sure they'd probably still do that but I don't really want to deal...

Coming from the guy that has 3x3 pictures in his sig? I'm sorry you have to move your mouse a little bit on your 11.6 inch monitor. I'm not reposting this. It would seem more sensible for you to just be grateful you're getting a review with decent pictures at all. Granted it's not the most...

Thanks :) Still have a lot to do. Have to find a click small enough and figure out how its going to fit in and connect. as well as a way to secure the module in the front :|

So, I might alter this project into a mini mag. Here's what I have so far... With a clicky in the tail cap and a 14650? Thought's? Yes, I know...I clipped the tag off the lm317 My original images died for some reason so i'll just post the album link http://photobucket.com/Maghost PW...

Yupp I saw the thread on that and debated on referencing it here, that was actually my whole reason for that spring picture :|

I don't have any scrolling issues (I don't have to scroll at all). I'm at 1920x1080 res.

I do not, But I would send it to someone that did, I just don't have the cash for shipping. The only thing I got from O-like / Susie when I asked what MY lasers out put was something along the lines of "350mW+"

Lol I've not seem them do that, In person any way. Is it possible to put some sort of test load between the DMM leads and the battery? Or is that just the same or not worth it?

Alright So this is my first review, I thought I'd give it a try considering all the help I've gotten from you guys here. I know there are actually quite a few reviews on this laser so far but hey, another perspective cant hurt right? This will be a review of the O-like 400mW 405nm Blu-ray Laser...

Yeh, I use the LM317 in my first 660 build, It did great. Quick, cheap, and easy. I wouldn't have a problem doing that again if it could be altered to handle the 1.5w+, I still have enough leftover parts to make another one, with the exception of the regulator, but that's probably one of the...

Fail - Well ... that's good times. Hadn't had any issues but at least now I know. Time to order a new 18650 I suppose. Is this true for any type of battery or just these 18650's / Lithiums?

So I finished my first 660nm build a while ago, I just received my 405nm o-like, Now I'm considering starting a 445nm hand held. I need some driver suggestions, vendor sites would help :). I'd like it to power the LD up to around 1.5w or higher. Adjustable would be prefered. I have some (6)...

Thanks for all the grats :) Goodluck on your first build Rob! let me know if there's anything I can do to help!

I bought the O-like 400mW 405nm bluray torch and just received it about a week ago. I also have 6 cells i took out of an old laptop battery which are 18650's. I was just curious what the difference is between the two. Are they supposed to be the exact same battery? Can I substitute the old...

Actually got it from ebay for about 5 dollars usd lol. Took about 3 days to get to me, I was excited!
