I guess I'll stick with the 14500, makes more sense since they are rechargeable.

Host I'm using uses AA's.

Sorry for hijacking this thread, but would 2 x AA's be enough for a 445nm build at 600-700ma? Or would I be better off trying to run two 14500's in parallel?

Wow this is tough, how long did it take you to get take it apart? I hope I'm doing it right, I've been clamping it between the button and the battery compartment.

Re: Taking apart wicked lasers evolution. So it's not all in one piece? I thought those grooves were machined in, at least from what I can see. I've tried pushing from the front to the end (aperture to battery compartment), with no luck. I'm not really getting what you mean when you tell me...

This thing is not coming off... Any other suggestions? :/

Goddamit... I used to have like $1000 worth of wicked bucks lol.

Ill try the hot water method and see if that works, and maybe I have some sheet metal lying around. The reason why I want to take this apart is because its lasing is pretty dim, and I have a higher powered module that I want to put inside it. Also the WL host is just really solid and well made...

Pushing it out from the back is probably not an option. I tried it with a pencil and I think the driver started to flex a little bit.

What exactly do you mean by this? The only other thing I have in my possession to thread into the aperture is the front part that screws off. The driver is pretty thin to be pushing from the battery compartment, I'm almost sure I'd crush the driver. Also, did you read my PM RA_pierce?

No one owns this or tried taking it apart? :cryyy:

Heh.. Actually, it screws off! It's to protect the lens from dust. I don't know about that threaded brass tube inside, I can't tell if the module is screwed into that or not. Or maybe it's just used so the aperture end can screw into the host.

Re: Taking apart wicked lasers evolution. Surely at least one person has this laser... and has attempted to take it apart right?

So there's only one lead connected to the switchboard correct?

Re: FS: WickedLasers 100+mW 2010 Evo Pro RA_pierce, could you tell me how you took yours apart? I have some fiddling that I want to do with my evo.

Re: FS: WickedLasers 100+mW 2010 Evo Pro How did you realign the beam, you had to take it apart to do that right?

Re: Taking apart wicked lasers evolution. About 3 years? I can't for the life of me figure out how to take this apart.

Has anyone tried taking apart the old school evolution that WL used to sell? I have a lower powered one lying around, and I thought it would make a sweet host.

Where did you get the side switch for this build btw, and do you just have to hook it up to the driver?
