oh wow. So i wasted 26 bux. I bought my diode on december 27th. It came to me a few days ago. I was running it off my driver which i use to run my 8x diodes at around 155mA 2.9V. The thing lasted me 1 day. First day it was lasing so niceley. Burning plastics and lighting balloons with a very nice visible beam at night. Next day i switched it on and got say 6 seconds use out of it before it died. Cant help but to feel ripped off :/

I bought 4 8x burner diodes for 40 bux and they havnt done me wrong.

I bought one in november, he shipped it out right before his surgery, in december. it was fine, and Im still using it to this day.

I suggest noone buy any more diodes till senkat sorts everything out...

Yup, it definitely looks like it unless that Korea or whatever guy didn't know either.

i know this may be stereo typing, but even though most are not so good at english, there are some who just specialize in swindling US buyers...

Why??

Anyone know?

I would like to know too, a few days ago I pmed him about his site, and he said that he is no longer monitoring his site, and I'd have to e-mail him for an invoice...

anyone know why this happened? is it because of the mother fuc--king s--on of a b---itch who sued C0ld, or his surgery?[/quote]
Hi. I had getten a few PMs from him before he left.
Here are some qoutes:
"I no longer post here because it has gone to shit, with the admin becoming a total pussy, scared of his own shadow - and reading other people's PM's."
"it fell apart since hte management saw fit to invade everyone's privacy and read their PM's, and then allow himself to have his balls cut off by some asswipe that threatened him. Instead of posting a thread, stating - I need your support, someone is gunning for LPF....shit, EVERYONE would have pitched in to help, even me in the hospital I woulda!"
Decipher this at will... :-X

Like I've said many times, it's better to shut up and just let all of this pass by. ;)
The forum has had enough drama.
