hello,
i am new to the whole laser scene and just built my first laser. It seemed to be working perfect until it was dropped. Now it only stays on for 30 seconds - 1 minute at a time. what could be the problem? is it possibly just a driver issue that now occurred? or is it a diode issue? The beam seems to look and respond the exact same as before the drop. The laser just shuts off after a short time. I can turn it back on but then it will shut off again after a short time. what other issues could come around by dropping a laser? thank you for any help.
