    Stacking drivers using led flashlights as hosts.

    https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3azuLCsX3y3Qm00M2xGbWZUN0U/edit?usp=docslist_api Check it out. Even thought about having a shop make me custom copper heatsinks it is already thicker than a 18650batt

    Stacking drivers using led flashlights as hosts.

    Like I have said I use them very safely and am new to assembly but not usage. a 2w 455 imo is just as dangerous. I like the ability of the blacklight lasers to light up certain materials. They charge glow in the dark paint and objects best too. And you can unfocus it all the way for forensic...

    Stacking drivers using led flashlights as hosts.

    Somehow the purple one I had and burnt up made the absoult strongest beam of any purple laser I have seen since. Hopefully my new one will match. What about this as a host. I intend to integrate the proper lense for focusing. And have seen this lasers heatsink it's fairly large. No fins tho. Do...

    Stacking drivers using led flashlights as hosts.

    The purple one is my fav. I'm very safe with them. I was lucky enough to find a 405 on Craig's that ran off 6v that was super strong. So you suggest a 12x? I can't wait to order my new ones. What about powering it with this mounted inside a nice host? 5v 1 amp to much? Should I stay a volt or...

    Stacking drivers using led flashlights as hosts.

    And I meant led. I am getting another 405nm soon this guy has 700mw ones for sale that ships in days. I am mounting that one into a host I also got from geek

    Stacking drivers using led flashlights as hosts.

    The only website with specs detailed at all for this Cree model are on a app powered by wish called GEEK . I also wondered if the board inside this fl could be modified to power a laser diode by itself.

    Stacking drivers using led flashlights as hosts.

    Thanks everyone! Looks like I'll prob just leave the flashlight a flashlight and or put a 405nm led in it. If I can find one strong enough. Also find a more proper host. Anyone know of one that will work with this module that has a nice heatsink and maybe even accepts kelidascope tips?

    Stacking drivers using led flashlights as hosts.

    Ok I'm going to have to wait and get this flashlight in the mail to run some tests on it. I should probably build a test board? And or get some specs for the driver I'm using. I'm wanting the charging , 3 stage light strength adjustment(wich now that I'm thinking might just starve and then max...

    Stacking drivers using led flashlights as hosts.

    srry I pasted the wrong laser module in last post This is the laser and driver I intend to use. Note the voltage output of the flashlight is rated at 8.4 volts. The driver can handle 8.4v I'm wondering about amps ohms and if the current intended for the led is within tolerance to use to power...

    Stacking drivers using led flashlights as hosts.

    I wonder if stacking drivers in series is ok. I want to use a high power variable led flashlight driver up to 8.4v with strobe and sos and charging functions remove its led and stack the driver for a 2w laser replacing the led. Is this ok? Seems to me with my mechanic knowledge that it would...
