He came, he posted, he left lol. Would anyone happen to have contact info on Smeerworst? His post says "more classic models available" so if he does intend on letting some of his collection go I would love to purchase some.

Haha, yeah I had one of those

Shes got some crazy curves! very cool looking

The host is very unique, is there a rationale behind the necked down section in the middle?

They both appear to be unprotected button top batteries, trading current caring capability for overall capacity -> 3A @ 1250mAh versus 10A @ 1000mAh.

DPSS 607nm would be tremendous, if you managed a small production run I would be in for one

Ahh that makes sense, a single battery. Most of my stuff use two cells in series so the battery current draw is often less than diode current thanks to having to step down the voltage.

Nice! I'll take one, pm sent.

I can't see a 700mW green pulling 3A unless it was a DPSS green using a 3W pump diode. Nevertheless, if the laser does attempt to pull 3A from a battery that can't support it you'll see decreased output from the laser and possible damage to the battery.

Yes, Vapcells are great for lasers if you respect them. Don't short them, over charge or over discharge them and they will be perfect. When I made my 22W pointer I specifically chose Vapcells for their high discharge rate which was necessary for the laser...

Looks very good! Are these the same hosts a what Sanwu uses?

Sofirn most likely wont list that, they aren't a high drain cell so it wouldn't be necessary to have it stated. Based off of the discharge curves I wouldn't pull more than 0.5-0.75A continuously from that cell, any more than that and you'll see excessive voltage sag and large hit to capacity...

For high drain applications stay away from off brands like Sofirn, I'm sure they will be fine in pointers and low power flashlights but if you need power go with a name brand cell like Molicel, Efest or Vapcell to name a few. Check out these tests results I found. By draining the batteries at...

Holy crap! I've purchased from him several times on both ebay and aliexpress without issue so this is very surprising
