my fifth dvd rewriter 18x and 20x diode has just died
1st diode- Over powered and then pins broken off
2nd Diode- pins got twisted and i touched the mirrors with a wire and it lighted up woot. But was connected directly to batts so it died
3rd diode- died coz it was directly connected to batts.
4th diode- either died coz of heat or the window broke and disconnected the pins inside
5th- really nice diode from lg which didnt even die when it was overheated whilst soldering, BUT died coz the pin got twisted.
toched with a solder wire and it lighted up but got shorted and ZAP. died.
LOL
:'(
so thats my story. by the way the overpowered two diodes were connected directly to batts coz of my ignorance, when i was really new to lasers.
the other werent really my fault actually, just the fact that i kept opening them up and taking them out again and again so the pins must have broke
well, sh*t happens.
