FGK (for good karma.... I just made that up): ~400mW CNI 532nm Module
I know little about this module other than that it was apparently originally from a CNI product. I tested it with 2A of current on a bench PSU, and on an Ophir head measured an output of a bit over 400mW. That may or may not have IR in it. It is clearly meant to be used with external optics, because otherwise, the beam diverges quickly (very roughly, it looked to expand to about 1 inch at 4 or 5 feet, but that's just an eyeball estimate).
I can't remember the back story on this module, but I believe I pulled it from a cosmetically damaged PGL host that someone gave or traded me for something else (this would be going back 2 or 3 years). I just re-discovered the module.
As long as someone covers shipping, I'm happy to give this away for free / good karma. I would just ask that the member it goes to has has a neat idea for something they want to do with it, is a member in good standing, and has posted at least some evidence on the forum that they can tackle builds beyond the "plug and burn" kit variety. It doesn't have to go to a "vet", or someone with a million posts and builds, I just want to make sure it goes to someone who can really use it, because it's a decent little module (I think).
