Hi, I am new at the forum :)

and

I was with my red laser when I had the wonderful idea of "reflecting the laser inside of the laser" :banghead: (yes, i am a stupid)

(Do you call it LED'ed right?)

the distance from the mirror was approximately 2 meters still its LED'ed instantly.

this laser uses a dvd diode right?

it has repair???

Needs a new laser diode.

Please don't reflect laser beams at yourself. It's rather unsafe.

Have you tried recharging the batteries, or using fresh ones?

If you really killed the diode, you could install a new one for 10$ worth of parts....

Yes, I tried the reserve batteries... The diode really DIED.

But i have a DVD diode here that i estracted and never used.


That is the kind of thing that happens 1 in 1000000000000000 times

PURE BAD LUCK

CAREFUL TO POINT LASERS AT THE MIRROR!!!

Yes you can just replace the diode and most likely you will have a operating laser again.
but don't shine it at mirrors again :eg:
