thanks! it was a temperature problem... damn new england cold.... if i leave it on for about 30 sec, it returned to normal, and if i leave it off for a few minutes, it needs to warm up again. does that sound about right?

my dealextreme true 20 mw green laser is acting weird. i just got it yesterday, and when i turn it on its really bright, but after about 3 seconds it becomes dim and the dot becomes less focused. does anyone know what could be causing this and how i can fix it?

Re: wow 90mw waterproof dx green for a pretty penn its backordered.

lol yeah there seems to be a lot of CHS's. thanks for all ur comments guys! (except wowyousuck, thats unnecessary dude.)

thats exactly what i used, chido! they are actually pretty cool... they make ur laser look like a lab laser!

well, yes. but around 450nm, in the green spectrum is what our eyes perceive as most visible, while any color with a higher or lower nm is less visible to us.

no, the most visible is around 450 or so, but anything higher or lower than that is less visible.

i k but then what am i going to to with the module without a lens? plus, thats a waste of money on something i don't need, i would much rather just buy the lens for cheaper.

so im assuming that everyone recommends glass, right?

check this out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1LYuBIOaJE its me at my high school talent show. i HAD a band but they all chickened out. >:( i should have had a laser show going... darn why don't i think of these things sooner!

where can i get glass lenses that fit the aixiz? i really don't want to replace the whole module, its glued into a heatsink and then a project enclosure.

the scratches aren't deep at all. where can i buy just the lens for the aixiz? also, why isn't the scratch filler suitable for lasers?
