Finaly, I will use one of your host that will be orderd by pHeneX. Regards, nanolaser

wow i feel dumb i mis-read, thx

Check with scopeguy20...

where could i find the module?? and about how much would it be?? thx

Not DIY unless you buy the module and mount it into a host...

Check with scopeguy20 for CNI group buy...

me again is there anyway to do a DIY 589nm build? thats my fav wavelength and would really want it done, but i cant seem to find that wavelength anywhere help??

Hey, Just got you message that you shipped my SS Host I cant wait till it comes in Thanks for that update

ThanXXX

will do thx again

Welcome to LPF!

Unfortunately the 4171 host is not available from DX any longer... Otherwise, yes it is a good host for a 1 Watt 445 build because it has a massive heatsink and takes an 18650 battery. (newest style 4171)

I've got a good kit here for a 445 build, just waiting on hosts that have been shipped:

Take a look at the options and send me a private message! :)

hi jayrob, ive been coming to this site for about 2 weeks now, and just signed up so i could buy a kit from you im kinda a noob at DIY lasers, but im a proud owner of a few Laserglow lasers, so not a noob in that regard i was looking at your different kits, and really like the MXDL 4171 host/heatsink. would you be able to fit a big enough driver and heatsink in there to run a 445 1W diode?? if not, what host/heatsink and/or diode would you recommend for me?? thx

Most of my kits have a 'Hot' option. (driver installed,and current set)

Here's a list of my kits:

The Key Chain CR2 kit is more of an advanced kit and I don't offer a 'Hot' option for that one.

Take a browse through the list, and send me a private message! :)

Welcome to LPF! Good starting point to go with a PHR build...

The Key Chain CR2 kit that you linked is a really cool little kit, but quite honestly, it is not really a beginner build. If you have good mechanical aptitude, then you will succeed. But it is a 'tight' build...

The driver you linked is a good driver. But for that driver with a blu-ray diode, you will want a host that can supply 9 volts at least.

That's what you need to consider when choosing a host/driver. The battery supply needed.

The small kits that only take a single battery, must use a boost driver. The V5 FlexDrive, or the Micro BoostDrive:

I was thinking of buying an AiXiz module with a PHR-803T HD DIODE removed from sled 405nm !!! HIGH POWER !! [PHR803T_single] - $19.49 : StoneTek Electronics, Your Laser Parts Store diode from StoneTek.

I don't know if I should use this Surface Mount FULL RANGE ADJUSTABLE Laser Driver pre-assembled [Stonetek_RKCSTR_FULL_RANGE] - $18.99 : StoneTek Electronics, Your Laser Parts Store driver.

With these components, will I be able to assemble a working laser? Am I missing anything? Should I go with a preassembled laser from Wicked lasers?

Hello Jayrob.

I registered on the forum just to buy a kit from you. I lurked for quite some time and have thought about getting into the hobby.

I was thinking of the http://laserpointerforums.com/f64/fs-key-chain-cr2-build-kit-schweet-42773.html . I am a laser newbie so I preferred to first ask you some questions about what I'll need.

Sorry... I don't know for sure. I have not had one. You can go to their site and send a message to find out...

i was curious, do you know if the wl sonars take RCR123a ? or just regular cr123a?
