My small red lab style build (First Build!)

Okay.. So yesterday i made myself a little lab style laser, now the case isnt really ideal, but the laser keeps cool. The laser setup is its an aixiz module with an acrylic lense. anyone know if i can buy a glass lense? i recall seeing something on here but i cant find it..
A rkcstr driver, a tight fit aluminium tube, as a heat sink, a fan, and two switches for safety, it has a plug for power in, it can run off a 9 volt which plugs in, or a 12 volt 1.5 amp switch mode wall plug supply. both with designated clips to plug into the laser.
And well i Love it!
ive run it on a couple occasions for 5-10 minutes, without any real signs of heating.

That's a sharp looking build.

Just wondering, what kind of jack is that for the power?

Thanks, the only image i could find of the jack is of the back of it.

The front is just a hole, and theres a Thick pin in the middle, similar to an AV plug

as long as there is no chance of shorting, It looked like a headphone jack, so I had to ask, headphone jacks will short momentarily while plugging in the power supply.

No no, it is quite fine. no shorting here

Whats inside the box?

Just the heatsink for the laser, and wiring for the switches and plugs
