Hi all, this is my first post in nearly a year and I am finally getting back into the science of lasers.
I am working on a short LPC-815 build that I was hoping would be quick and easy to make. I am going to use a rkcstr driver at about 400mA, and just put the module in a small project box. Tonight I bought some tools to make an assembly for two CR123's. I have found that what I was planning to do might not work, and I am now looking for alternatives.
My question is, will four AAA's be sufficient instead of four AA's or two CR123's? And could two CR2's be plausible as well? My only concern was the amperage would be too low for the driver.
And if this did suffice, is it correct that 400mA will output just under 300mW?
Thank you in advance,
L. Connor
