My first home made laser.
She's not pretty to look at, but she works.
This is just using a cheap 5mW 532nm module from DX.
A plastic project box from my local fry's, and a momentary power button.

For power I'm using a 3.6V battery. I have some of these strange batteries
their ER14505H 3.6V at 2.4Ah. Their the same size as AA. I actually have a case of 12 left over from my last project.

Yes, next I plan on ordering a 120mW 532nm from o-like.
I want to use one of jayrob's DIY green kits:)

Nice, I was looking at a Jayrob DIY green in the future. I have his 4171 and he does a great job.
