Hi all, This site does have a lot of floating adverts that cause issues, bit annoying

Thanks, I'll maybe try ebay .

I'm not the type of person that just makes messages for the sake of getting to a point so I can sell something, seems bizarre that the forum promotes filling the forum full of junk just to get to sell something, but hey ho, why should I worry they want to fill there servers full of junk lol

Hi All, OK I'm not a big laser guy, but I bought two WikiSar RGB PWM controlled laser modules for a costume project, hardly used 4 hours max and I have had them sat about collecting dust so I thought I'd come and sell them. however this forum has a rule that I must have posted 20 posts to be...

I have emailed to get thread sizes, both internal and external. if these come back a standard, buying a G2 lens to fit allowing short focusing. then either buying an adpater or making one as you suggested and we might have a solution? or have I gotten confused again! Thanks for all your...

the thread on the laser in the pic, is it a starndard? if so do you know what it is?

Yeah, I have quite a lot of experaince with LED strips, there are addreassable ones with much higher density 312led per meter :) Probably is with strips is left to right flexibilty, OK for slight curves, also power consumption if you turn then all on, lots of amps. Arduino isn't an issue as...

The core is 170um the outer is 1mm thick approx, thats why I think they use FC connectors. but maybe I'm over thinking it. Do you think the laser in the advert picture would be able to focus on a 0.17mm fiber at a resonable distance (max 10mm)?

EL wire is nowhere near as bright, my first costume was EL wire and whilst better than nothing lacked the intensity and complexity I wanted, then came V2 in EL wire, made a lot of effort finding the brightest EL wire and made quite a good complex pattern. But it was hand sewn onto the costume...

Intresting, I love forums :-) you start with one thing and end up finding something else. I was looking at that type of thing but the bulky LED unit is the issue. have thats why I went for FC laser as is small and light. If there is anything else you have seen please post info. I'm always...

Hi, This is not a comercial thing, it's a costume for a festival, I originally used EL wire but this broke easily, I then found corning side emitting fiber, this is robust and bright. the total length is no more than 10m but I use differet lasers so I have a few colours. As this is "hobby" I'm...

Hi RedCowboy, Whilst no expert I can comprehand most things, am good at making / designing things and love to learn, but always seek advice / pointers (pardon the pun!) from more experienced people to avoid mistakes. I get all the cleaved / polished fiber ends and have very sucesfully done...

it's always hard when your knew to things, thanks for your help so far. I think one thing that I also need to understand is focus. as the laser focus point is quite close (mm's) from the end of the diode. is there a range of diodes that have such a short focus point? Thanks P.S. you say "our...

Hi, I have a 100mw laser diode with driver circuit (5v) it was working fine with only about 20hours usage. I turned it on one day and after about 2 seconds it went dim, now it's always dim. no overheating issues or over use. Is it broken beyond repait? What tests can I do if you think it's...
