hello (i'm french and my english is bad... sorry)
I am a beginner on the construction of laser and I would like to assemble a laser 2000mw 445nm, preferably reliable but not too expensive and is difficult to make a good compromise since I do not know the subject very well.
I inquired about the components, but I still have questions,
So I come to you hoping to get some tips
First, the diode:
she seems to me well:
DIY 445nm M140 Diode in Module With Wire Leads
Or it is better to take those? :
Binned DIY 2.2W 445nm M140 Diode in Copper Module With Wire Leads
DIY 445nm M140 Diode
Lens :
Is there a real difference between the two ? Does it worth g2 ? the other is it suitable ? Because there is a big price difference
G-2 Lens Assembly
445nm AR Coated Standard Glass Lens Assembly
Driver
Survival Laser Driver
Battery
18650 Battery and Charger Combo
For host assembly I found this:
DIY S4? Host Assembly, Unmarked
But I must take this extension if I want to put 2 18650 batteries (because with a single battery the laser loses a lot of power):
Battery Extension Tube- Black Anodized Aluminum
Now all assembled, the body of the laser is tall (too much). do you have another laser body to offer me?
Each component can be mounted and fit well together?
Do you have any advice to offer me? There are sites where it is best to order and another to avoid?
Thank you for taking the time to read this, I am at your service
