NOW IM ON MAKIN A RED LASER USING DVD DIODE ECT,
ive stripped the dvd drive last night and found 2 diodes,

ones round

the other looks open like it doesnt had a top on it,

both have 3 pins on bottom

i know one diode runs red and one infrared,   does the infra red on have a burnign ability too. ?

i know its invisible, but shame to see one diode goto waste

How did you manage to get bluray laser done, and still be asking these strange questions? What am I missing here?
