Got the Ultrafire 602 in the mail today. Good stuff :) Can't wait to put a single mode 638nm or 450nm in it eventually.

A diode in a module with an attached driver. Like the ones DTR sells.

Re: Mrcrouse's Going Back to College Sale

Hey all! :)
I am mrcrouse's head machinist (his dad).
Don't know if it is best to post this here but I would like to pick everyone's brain on what style hosts or features you would like to see. What would look the coolest or most desirable in shape and color? I have tried different designs and some have been pretty good but some not so much. We have added the marbled techniques to anodizing and also upgraded the custom hosts to 5 amp heavy duty switches which are rare in hosts.
Call this a market survey on what the customers desire, in a host of course. :)
Obviously there are some things not possible but we are willing to give them a good try.
Please give me some feedback and ideas.
Thanks and have a great day!
Ed

Re: Mrcrouse's Going Back to College Sale

Well, MrCrouse's dad. I will consider this carefully and then send you or your son a PM when I have some drawings to show you both a bit of the styles I enjoy. I am very big on sleek looking hosts, and I prefer the diameter of the host to not change overly much at any point in the hosts. Grooves are nice when tastefully done, and knurling as well. Everything tastefully done is the biggest thing for me. I love elegance in hosts above all else. If an elegant host is able to be made with a great heatsink that is even better.

PS- nice to meet you :)

Re: Mrcrouse's Going Back to College Sale

Thanks for your input wannaburnstuff. I can't wait to see what you have in mind.
Mrcrouse lately with his studies has limited time to develope ideas lately and run his shop and beig I am disabled I have lots of time to come up with ideas but have limited creative abilities so that is why I thought I would ask the forum what it is you you desire and maybe it can be done.
So once again I greatly appreciate your input.
Ed
