Yeah, I decided to try yet another supplier for the green modules ... the price is similar to Susies (actually quite a bit better if I buy in quantity) but I have been guaranteed 135mW average as well as 150+ peak plus there are some other perks, I can order them with or without switches, etc (once I start ordering in bulk) - my goal is to eventually offer them tested to exact spec here on the forum at roughly the same price point as ordering from China so no 2 week wait, and you'll get an exact power graph with each one as well as exact specs in regards to mrad, divergence, etc so no ugly surprises - we'll see how that goes though once I try a few of them out!

I already have a buddy machining me a quick-release module tester to make things go easier/faster if it works out, the only drawback is that to make it all work correctly (and stay somewhat profitable) I'm going to have to take somewhere between 30-50 modules at a shot, again, I'll keep u posted!

Awesome.

One thing though, weren't you taking about blu-ray modules?

finished models up and ready! added some pictures of the kit and what it looks like as an assembled kit!
this thing is awesome....and at $70 total (assuming $15 for diode and housing) to make a laser from this kit (which uses a flex drive v4!)..... thats not bad at all either :)

haha yeah i think you'll be impressed, i was surprised while i was putting one together at well well it turned out, and how everything just seems to go together perfectly.

my next kit (assuming i get to do another) will utilise the rkcstr microdrive, and that will knock the price down another $20 each, making them around $40-45 with driver included.

Do plan to sell these kits for a long time? I am wanting to make a new Youtube tutorial soon to keep my views up and this kit might be good for that, I've been getting a lot of messages asking about a flashlight build like this. I just don't want to make a tutorial based on something that won't be for sale after 3 months, because if that happens my Youtube inbox will be spammed with complaints on asking why they aren't in stock...lol.
