I can see by your post.... that you have done absolutely no reading
or research on drlava's Drivers.... or you would know where to get them... :-?

Since it seems so difficult to do that... here is the link... :'(

Mine was send the 24 Feb But I have not received them yet.

Are there any who know how long it takes to send to other countries (Denmark) with "USPS First class shipping"?

I just received a package also from OH, to the Netherlands, (should be about the same distance) and that took 9 days to arrive.
So i guess yours should arrive any moment.
My flexdrives were sent on the 26th so i guess it will arrive soonish.

In the US, "First Class" packages travel on a "space available" basis. First the Express and Priority packages get loaded. If there is room left, they fill the void with first class packages. The delivery time for first class (especially international) is NOT predictable.

I received my driver today. This new driver is AWESOME. It is so small. It is perfect. Best Version yet.

Okey, I think I will sleep at the mailbox tonight if the post man should come with my drivers tomorrow

Re: Lava Micro FlexDrive Driver (lavadrive2) fits

Yeah I've heard of first class international taking 14+ days to arrive. If you want express mail international service, you can PM me. Express mail international for a driver costs more than the driver! about $26. Plus, with express mail you get into customs and import duty issues.

How well will this newest driver model function if it's missing one of its capacitors?

Re: Lava Micro FlexDrive Driver (lavadrive2) fits

Just so I feel more certain about this.

It is ok to run 3 AAA batteries through the driver so I can power a blue ray diode right?

PP sent for 5! cant wait, thanks as usual!

yes, this will work! first post in this thread says:

-Run any diode (red laser, blu-ray laser, >=2.5V LED) from any battery set 2.5V - 5.5V (extendable to 6V)

which means the driver will take care about everything, as long as you input 2.5 to 5.5 volts and have battery and diode hooked up correctly ;-)
3 AAA batteries will be 4.5v (alkaline) or 3.6v (nimh), right in the range. three lithium would be way too high! for good runtime, i would suggest one single lithium, either 3.0v primaries or 3.6v rechargeables. the alkalines give up quite fast compared to lithium. but then you "only" drive a bluray, with (propably) less than 150mA, which isnt much (compared to reds with up to 500mA). so, again, three AAA will be fine.

I have some AAA rechargeables that are 1.3V if I remember correctly. I ordered min preset at 100mA and will be driving a PHR-803t. From what I read from graphs around I should get around 90mW.

Bearded_Galaxy · Mar 6, 2009

Re: Lava Micro FlexDrive Driver (lavadrive2) fits

Yeah, 90mw, give or take.

wikemallace · Mar 6, 2009

Re: Lava Micro FlexDrive Driver (lavadrive2) fits

can this be set to run at 115mA at about 12V?

This will not take, or give 12 volts
