I love that early morning knock at the door, the one you stagger too with
you eyes still shut... Delivery guys seem to get a kick out of it too.
I had been sourcing some quality 808nm diodes and stumbled bass ackwards
into a nice little score. My wife found me the samples of a bunch of LD's
that tested really well for pumping. After making a great deal with the seller,
and 3 transactions, I offered to take whatever he had left..
I had no idea what would be included :evil:
I was shocked to see those big dirty bars in there :drool:
The smaller one shown in the second last pic, semi lit, was
fed 1.8A and put out 10mW. :crackup:
I have to setup a monster supply to test these and will probably spend the next
few days getting it all together.
I had been planning on some monster greens which is why I bought the 9mm LD's.
However, now I have to get my hands on some appropriate pump medium.
The crystal sets I sourced are good up to 300mW with 1W, but now I have
an excuse to aim higher.
Im already planning an attempt at an epic power meter, but that will come later.
MarioMaster's DIY LPM and a 100+W TEC for the sensor has crossed my mind.
Something tells me my builds are about to become a little more difficult
