Hi, I would like some professional input.

I would like to get https://sites.google.com/site/dtrlpf/home/diodes/6w-nubm44-445nm-laser-diode

I am unsure which version to get or which mA rating to get.

I do not have any batteries or charger.

I do not have a host.

I do not have safety glasses.

I would be happy with 5W.

My budget for this build is $1,500.00

Any pros out there wanna post up a parts list for me? All help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time and patience.
 





LOL, at first I thought you needed help setting up your stove.

:crackup:

Some great safety glasses which are commonly used around the forums(and work darn well) are the Eagle Pair's from Survival Laser. You don't have your location added so I will give you the links to both the US & International websites:

US Store:
Safety
International Store
Safety

However, due to your high budget, if you are interested LaserGlow and Thorlabs provide you with certified safety glasses with a higher price tag. Links below:

Thank you Alex, the certified glasses will be perfect.
 
-for host contact Ehgemus(aluminium host ) or Sinner(copper good for keeping that kind of power going for longer time).
-for top grade battery contact LarryDFW.
-for charger look around for Nitecore i4.(with that you never ever need to buy another charger as it is Universal battery charger/ charge all kind of battery.)
something unrelated: for LPM contact Laserbee, GR3N or Gozert.

Nice name with Thanksgiving coming up in a couple of days :D
Welcome to the forum.
You are going to build one beast of a laser! Have fun :)

Update: I received a beautifully wrapped package from DTR today with my new NUBM44 450nm Laser Diode In Copper Module
W/SXD Driver & 405-G-2 Lens!! ;) (ty Jordan) I am setting up a host in the next week or two when I have time.

Until then I wanted to get a new pair of shades. Hap gave me a great place to look, now I need some advice.

Should I go with:

1. Thorlabs - LG12B Laser Safety Glasses, Amber Lenses, 11% Visible Light Transmission, Sport Style

or

2. https://www.laserglow.com/AGS# AGS5327XX Optical Density: 7+ at 190-532 nm

Thank you for all the help, I don't want to take any chances with my eyesight.:undecided:

5W of 450nm light would require a minimum OD of about 6.7 if my calculations are correct. So I'd go with the laserglow OD 7+ @190-532 goggles.
The Thorlabs goggles provide an (in this case) unnecessarily large spectrum of protection, and are much more expensive.
