I actually just found a supply of 25 more of these hosts. I'll have them available in a week or so.

Guess I have to wait then...

My sister should be picking them up tomorrow and mailing them to me. She jsut happens to live in the same town.
This batch will also have scratched ones.
Prices will probably be $25 new, and $15 scratched kits.


There will be 25 hosts in this batch but i'm not sure how many have scratches or anything.

I just discovered something else really cool about these (BTW - This is one of the coolest kits yet, I really hadn't anticipated how neat these would be).

- The clicky is a "reverse forward" ? (that might not be correct). But whatever the technical designation, the way it functions is as a momentary clicky when you push it in just a bit, and then an on/off switch when you click it all the way. This is the first host I've seen like that. It's the best of both worlds. You basically get a momentary clicky and a traditional on/off in one.

yup, i think it's called forward clicky.

These were one of the first hosts i ever made a laser with and continue to be one of my favorite.....simply because an entire aixiz module can fit inside these with 2xcr2 batteries, OR a single green module and 1x CR2.

Not to mention they are small, very nice looking, and made with great quality.

I've updated the OP with the new price and even added a complete parts list for those wanting to build a laser.

ohh a forward clicky laser...thats convenient. If the one I bought wasnt already dedicated to a lpc-826, I would put a 12x into this thing... 1W+ 445's seem a bit much, btw rhd, how long did you leave it on before it was "hot"??

Moh, you need to offer all your kits in copper. Give your basement a little color variation ;)

ay ben turn on your phone man

@rhd damn thats it, well i guess thats not too horrible considering how small the host is. I think a 800mW Blu-ray would be a better choice...OoOOo or even better a 200mW green module. I prefer my 445's in bigger hosts just to keep things cool to get some decent play time.

also rhd, damn dude, do you even have any flexdrives or any of the "standard" drivers...you are the MAN when it comes to LDO DIY drivers. Cant even come close to touching you when it comes to that.

That's ^ a much more reasonable approach ;)

Having said that, how are you planning to drive the blu-ray?

Well I got a microboost lying around so I'm debating between that or one of jibs 500ma drivers. If I go microboost the I'm gonna run 1 14500 instead of 2 cr2's
