    Anybody got a spare G8?

    techhood on ebay sells them too, no shipping cost but long delivery time is the obvious trade-off

    NUBM31T 95W 455nm

    It's standard practice for NICHIA to deny any products that are not specificially sourced through them are legit. Chinese sellers also make up product model names because NICHIA will not tell them the actual information, they don't support reselling. Mostly I think this is because these diodes...

    Hot damn I am in awe, Has anyone else here seen this POS?

    So they came back 5 years later just to update their hate post? 😂 He seems to be under the impression that a forum is supposed to be an encyclopedia or something, but many of us are here because lasers are our hobby and we like sharing it with others, not because we are...

    Can I solder a laser diode directly to a PCB?

    Like Cyparagon said, If you're only gonna run it for a millisecond it won't really heat up and will be fine without a heatsink. Soldering it directly to a pcb is gonna be fine. But you might have to run it for longer than a millisecond to mark wood like you want to. I'm not sure. If you have to...

    Wanting to build an orange laser pointer

    Pointer? Short answer no. Non-handheld? You can get a chinese rgb package for 25 dollars and mix the red and green till you get orange. It's a cheap way to get a wide range of colours + "white". Note that these are not aligned very well from the factory and might require some DIY

    CLens GB #2 Interest_sign-up

    I'm sorry for responding so late, I've already told Bob but I ought to explain myself to everyone. I've been very busy the past few months and have had absolutely no time for the laser hobby. As such I missed the window for the order. Right now I'm also short on money so even if I had had the...

    New! Sharp Diodes 1W 520nm & 5W 455nm & +2W 638nm

    Darnit, I had high hopes for these FAC diodes to be an easy fix for the crappy multimode divergence.. Thanks for buying, testing and reporting about them on the forum though, much appreciated (y)

    FOR SALE: 800mw 638nm C6 host

    Well for one the threads are MUCH smoother on the C6 (at least the ones I got from SL), and the finish is less shiny which is what makes the 501b look and feel cheap imo. C6 is also smaller and lighter, but that does mean the 501b has room for a bigger heatsink.

    Huh, it almost looks like your lens is installed backwards. Have you tried it the other way around? GLWS

    Styro's New 1,000,000 W Laser

    That's absolutely terrible :oops: The first video because he's obviously injuring himself and the second because she's actually advertising the damn thing! Cool video pyro, that's one scary unit. For my own safety I will never buy such a thing 😅

    Help me find TTL laser driver

    For TTL cheap ebay/aliexpress drivers work fine, for instance you can even find a complete kit with module and laser for ~22 dollars: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/405laser500mw-withdriver/32562052620.html
