ok so i've put the module deeper in the thing so its completely secured inside and not exposed, though now I notice that when I connect my power supply, it will change brightness a few times and flicker almost as I raise it from 1 amp to 1.9 amps. at 2 amps it shuts off, then goes on again when...
thanks!!
As far as total crush proofing, thats as easy as nesting the aixiz completely inside the bar. To make this one that has a driver onboard would be a bit harder.
thanks man! haha. If I'd thought to put everything deeper inside the thing, nothing would have gotten destroyed. The driver was a bare circuit board on the top, so that's expected that it got destroyed. I'm just surprised nobody decided to cash in this huge piece of brass.
So last week I was packing my laser stuff up into my truck to take to a friends house. Then I realised I forgot the ice for the cooler. I set the laser stuff on the tailgate and went to get the ice, I come back and leave for my destination.

Was very curious about this one.
Has anyone here tried setting up a powerful laser pointer in one spot and melting a small hole through several feet of snow? Certainly someone has thought of this before!
Heya everyone!
Just completed my brass bar laser!
At the time of this post, I don't have actual pictures, but here's my finely edited HD video of it.
I filmed and edited a full video showing how to make this, but its not complete yet, so here's just the tail end of the video:
Homemade 1.2...
Ok. Here's the updated video :

currently, I haven't listed the driver details and safety yet, but I plan too. Need more replies on things to add before it goes public.
... Ok that kind of stupidity hurts to listen to. And if it didn't vaporize and got stuck? Then what? D:
One time in auto shop in high school, I was sitting on the back desk playing with test crcuits, and this kid comes over and drops a crow bar across the car battery next to me.
I ran out...
