NDB7675 "Chunk" and M462 Cypreus-II builds

Hey guys, thought I would post my two 462nm builds.

First is the NDB7675 9mm 462nm diode driven by a 1.8A X-drive. I wound up putting it in a ZeroLaser Chunk host.

The pictures definitely aren't the best, but I tried! Maybe one day I'll get a real camera, but till then, I try to make do.

The LPM gragh. Almost hit 1.8W. Link to full size image below.

Now for the Cypreus-II M462. I had planned on driving this also with a 1.8A X-drive, but it got microboosted instead. Driven at a lower current than it's 9mm counterpart, it seems to be slightly lower in wavelength.
When next to the NDB7675, I can see a slight difference in color. With both 462s next to a 445nm, it's obvious the M462 is close to the NDB7675, but not quite the same. The 445nm looks very purple while the M462 has a barely detectable purple next to the blue of the NDB7675.

And the LPM reading.

Yes, this laser has a very nice run time. :wave:
A 1 minute measurement never hit 1.4W, but 1:30 to 2 minute always goes over 1.4W.

And now more pics.






Very big thanks to DTR and sinner. You guys made these lasers possible.

Thanks for looking!

Very nice. Some great builds you have there.:beer:

Hey now, that's a nice pair. Question. how did you decide which diode to put in which host?

Thanks! They are two of my favorites.

That is a good question. Originally I was going to put the NDB7675 in the Cypreus-II, but I couldn't get the back of the diodes module off. That first run wouldn't take the full module. So I threw it in the Chunk.

Then came along the M462, so I asked DTR to leave the back loose so I could get it into the Cypreus-II. I have another Cypreus-II that I want to put a 1W 520nm into.

Sounds like a suitable host for that diode. I'll look forward to that build.

I am unable to see the pictures you have embedded.

same here..

Same here.

Do they show up now?

Nope. Still nothing. What method are you using? Also make sure privacy settings are set to public at your image hosting site.

Google drive. I made sure all the links are public.

I tried dropbox first, but they wouldn't show up in preview. I'll attach them if nothing else.

Both don't work. Try uploading on Dotphoto.com or add a .jpeg to the end of your pics

They are not public, when I try to view them I get a 403 error, Your client does not have permission to get URL from this server.

I could see them fine with my iPhone when he posted. Maybe it was the divice? While we're on the subject, doesn't anyone know how to resize a photobucket image ? Everything I've bosted lately the image has been huge.

I was also able to see them when you first posted last night, but now nothing shows up.

@DwU - I use photobucket, and I resize my photos by going to my library, click on the photo you want to resize; an icon that looks like a wheel comes up in the upper r.h. part of the pic., click on the icon, five options will come up, pick edit.
When the photo comes up it will have options across the top, one of those being "resize", just delete the original size, and enter the size you want. 800 is max. width to use here.

Ok, I got them back, and their full size this time. Apparently, the original link had a 400 second time limit, so now they should stay.
