Any chance I could buy one of those chipped ones off you :whistle:

I haven't heard of a CAD file before, I don't know of any program that uses that extension. Do you know what program your friend uses?

Re: VERY BAD EXPERIENCE with 'bhwollen' Yes, but you advertise your meters to be accurate. RHD advertises his modules as 1.6A. There is a difference.

Don't let it happen again :beer:

He meant join date. I second the middleman suggestion, join date means nothing.

Double negative? Just because you are paranoid does not mean they are not after you. -not -not = Just because you are paranoid does ___ mean they are ___ after you...

Re: VERY BAD EXPERIENCE with 'bhwollen' The diode is the brass piece pressed into the back of that thing you keep calling a diode. The preferred term for the thing that holds the lens is an Aixiz module. (sort of like the things in my signature, except silver instead of copper.) There should be...

Re: VERY BAD EXPERIENCE with 'bhwollen' We should wait till someone experienced sees the laser before the "scammer" tag is tossed about. If he used a 1.2A flashlight driver and a regular aixiz glass lens I would label him a scammer. Bending the truth in your favor is scamming IMO.

Oh S#it? On Youtube?! No! Yes. Yes you are. Just to be the argumentative bastard that I feel like being tonight!

The wavelength is too high to give you a sunburn. It will burn you though.... Your saying you've never shined a laser at your skin to feel the heat?

I pulled a green module from one of those a few years back, it "pot modded" nicely. Still going strong after all this time! There's some good lumia wheels in there too with some geared motors if you want to try to make a lumia projector.

Re: DAOO/LASERMASTER 2.2W Beast "NOT" Not a problem Dave! I thought about the loss of thermal continuity between the host and retaining ring but decided whatever thermal capacity gained would not be much, the retaining ring is pretty small. The foil trick is pretty slick. I know there is thin...

Re: DAOO/LASERMASTER 2.2W Beast "NOT" From what you are saying it doesn't sound like he swapped the o-rings to make that heatsink fit. You need to swap a larger o-ring from the host to the retaining ring. They are done like that to compensate for inconsistencies in the host, it's a lot easier...

I suggest you swap the TEC over to the red diode, to fight the red shift. I think the heatsinking you have there would be plenty for a blue to match that red. Plus you want the blue to shift as far towards red as you can, though they aren't as temperature dependent as red diodes are. Also, I...

AFAIK you can't buy a white fusion kit anymore. I say go for it, it's a great semi cheap project to tinker with in your free time. Down the road you could add some galvos and analog/ttl drivers for a nice RGB projector.

Re: VERY BAD EXPERIENCE with 'bhwollen' I would return the laser to him and file a paypal dispute. When they deny your claim I would file for a chargeback at your bank or with your CC company. If you have a tracking number proving you returned the item your chances of them deciding in your...

Re: VERY BAD EXPERIENCE with 'bhwollen' I think there are more important questions you need to answer than that one...

Re: VERY BAD EXPERIENCE with 'bhwollen' I understand that paypal will lock the account and suspend the total value of the disputed cost which may make the account negative. What I am saying is that paypal will not automatically take money from a linked bank or credit card account to right a...

Re: VERY BAD EXPERIENCE with 'bhwollen' I'd like to point out that paypal will more than likely immediately close your claim in Bhwollen's favor if you file under the "Item not received as described" reason. There is no purchase protection if you use paypal outside of e-bay, all they care about...

That was done intentionally, you can use teflon to lock the lens in the focus adapter. The threads are cut a little bigger in the head so the lens rotates there instead of the focus adapter. Remember, these hosts have to work with a large number of diode and lens configurations. I designed the...
