that cheap ass rubber! I have 3 Sandisk Thumb drives that literally did the exact same thing. I dont know exactly what makes it do that.

I also heard about a super cheap Direct Diode 570nm coming out next year sometime around April from Sharp. supposedly itll be 150mw max at around $50 U.S.

honestly most of the batteries that come with lasers are complete garbage. low quality. you're better off actually buying batteries separately. LG. Tenergy, Sony, Samsung, AW, Efest, and Panasonic are really good cells. as long as you dont pay 1 or 2 dollars per battery than theyre probably good...

say what? theyre already built when they arrive. is that what youre talking about?

oh okay, yeah i was a little confused, apologize for that, sure would like to know what thing thing is, incredibly powerful whatever it is. more than likely a high output laser module and not pointer. looks to be in the several W range. a little off topic but reminds me of that laser rainbow...

I was out for around a year, what happened to Jordan? or is it personal stuff that shouldnt be discussed? thanks Red :)

accident? looks like you just have it unfocused. what does the laser look like? (Host)

you know, thats a good question. I got into this hobby in March 2015. im not sure how much they were before then, it would be kind of cool if someone could make a timeline of how much diodes were dating back 10 years ago versus what they are now. prices have dropped so much over the years and...

not gonna lie. this is pretty sick! love stuff like what you built.

500? must be one im not familiar with, which one was that, im curious now :D

did you make a couple solder contacts on the ring to pill? so its connecting the circuit. maybe you mentioned that but not sure. what i mean is that i wonder if the driver is getting power but its not going to the Laser diode? i made that same mistake once. just keep in mind that in this hobby...

good good. I was hoping you were :) youre welcome and thank you for everything, nearly every one of my lasers has something from SL lol. anyways, have a great day ;)

yup, Ive been hearing all about the shortage for the 2020 year, they say thats why car production has slowed way down almost to a stop, because these stupid cars these days have so many computers in them, and they all need one thing, chips. personally i believe thats why cars dont last anymore...

glad to see you Gary, i recently purchased another laser tool accessories box and im gonna need to fill it with some parts so ill probably be ordering a bunch of random stuff you pretty soon with no project in mind, just wanna have some stuff laying around for when I eventually do wanna...

I find it hilarious that i literally use the exact same case for my laser parts, but mine is red. small world for sure :) so how in the world did you get your hands on that Cmount 650? i remember seeing your video on that a long time ago and was never able to find it.
