Thought you guys might enjoy what I'm doing. I recently (as in yesterday) started looking into XBox 360 mods. Basically with some custom installations you can run games from a USB, mod games, etc. I have a Trinity motherboard with the latest dashboard so I decided to do an RGH2, Duel NAND (using...

I'm assuming positive to B+ and negative to B-? and where exactly to I solder over the button?

It's not a plain "lamp". It shines in a cone of light into a water and flouricine mix. Because 405nm flourences very well it's good for it. Also, I know the process of soldering, I just don't know where to attatch the leads.

I'm making a laser lamp. I found it awhile ago on styropyro's YouTube channel (where many of us start) and because of my parents not allowing power, I decided to go for effects. I just never got around to building it until now. EDIT: Just realized that red wasn't part of your sig. Yah I've read...

Hello all, I purchased a simple 5mW (Yes, I know it will certainly not be actually at 5mW) 405nm module. It is designed for a pen host though so it comes wiht a spring attatched, not leads. For the use of my project however, I need leads soldered on. Despite lurking for a while now, I haven't...

Also the CPU and the some heatsinking. One of our members, styropyro, made a tutorial a while back. It's age restricted by youtube because of "danger" so you will need to log into to an over 18 account. Here is the link: DIY: Hack a Dead Computer into a Burning Laser! - YouTube

Ok. Would you by chance happen to have an old computer laying around that you could take apart?

Have you made sure they are ok for the 600nm range? Do you want a handheld laser or would you perfer a base?

Welcome to LPF! :wave: May I suggest the search button? Always look to see if the answer is already there before you ask the question. If you haven't yet, read the rules and stickies. Also if you do want help, please be specific. Do you want a specfic color? What is your budget, cheap is very...

I actually am very fond of the Wicked Lasers Core (Core Series - 5mW Green Laser Pointer | Wicked Lasers). I'm assuming you've heard of Wicked Lasers bad reputation but the Core has next to zero IR and is usually on spec within a mW. It is fairly pricey for the power though as you would expect...

I may in fact do just that. Both of the beams were stationary, but the beams were within an inch or so of the table so they would be easy to accidently break. Neither lasers had beam dumps though, just a piece of black metal. What was particularly terrible was there was actually a reflection...

Yep "professionals" haha

Hello all, A few months ago, I visited Michigan State University in order to recieve my chemistry merit badge (working on Eagle Scout :D). While I was there, we got a tour of the science department. One such area we got to see was the laser area. They had a high powered green labbie (forget the...

Thanks, I'll probably go with this one. Could you post your readings on this thread when you recieve them so I can get an idea of what power I'm dealing with because I am currently lacking an LPM of any sorts. Also if the name in your sig is your real name, awesome name (it's also mine). EDIT...

Hello all, I've recently been veiwing threads such as this (http://laserpointerforums.com/f52/30mw-kaleidoscopic-green-laser-budgetgadgets-37908.html) and this ( http://laserpointerforums.com/f52/dealextreme-kaleidoscopic-30mw-green-laser-37886.html) and was looking into purchasing one of these...

Oh haha. Sorry Its hard to pick up sarcasm without hearing it. And on the care and use of HeNes, do you have to run them every once and a while to keep them working? Do they have duty cycles? How do you turn them on (just flip a switch or is there a series of something you have to do? Also, is...

Ok thanks. I got seem to find epay though. And on flea pay I cant seem to find a way to search for items. Also when you said I should check the forums, do you mean the buy and sell section?

Thanks both of you. I plan to start with just buying a small HeNe before trying to build one. Would you guys have any suggestions of where to buy from? I preferably would only want something 2mW-5mW of any color. Preferably reasonable price but won't say a budget because I don't really know how...

Hello all, I have recently gotten interested in gas lasers and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. I know pretty much nothing about gas lasers and have only done a little bit of reading but haven't found any building tutorials or purchasing tips for beginners. Could...

Thanks. I'm already trying to do that and it's interesting to actually find someone who goes there and is intrested in the same type of carrer ideasd I have.
