Greetings,
I'm building a 445nm laser (around 1-1.5W) using the standard Aixiz module and glass lens - and I was considering installing the module in a metal box and mounting it back a ways from the light opening, and having it shine through a hold (drilled in a heat sink) to tidy up the beam. Anyone ever tried this and was it worth the effort (I can see it being a bit of a pita to get it lined up nicely).
