He issued me a refund and cancelled the auction. However, he did tell me the pinout was the same as this auction. New 100mW 405nm Blue-Violet blu-ray Laser Diode | eBay Hmm? :thinking: Lazerer, you said this is the pinout you used? For the 200mW diodes, my seller said use this...

Agreed. Now the question is, what are we going to do with him and these diodes? Personally, I don't want them if they're not 638. If he gives me a hard time about getting a refund, negative feedback I will leave.

We'll see I guess. I kind of knew it was too good to be true. I guess I'll just have to be happy with my 40mW 635 for now.

Re: teen killed because of Laser My thoughts exactly.

Argh, I don't know what to do! I ordered the 200mW versions and I'm on the fence on what I should do with the damn things. I hate these morons on eBay that false advertise things.

Actually, his attitude is kind of ignorant. They passed a law, and you have to respect that. If you disagree with that law, lobby to try to get it changed or repealed. You can't just go out and break that law, then basically tell the cop to fuck off when they try to do their job when they bag...

Deep down, I know :( I was just somehow hoping they'd drop in wavelength with a higher current, even though we all know higher current increases wavelength :'(

Well they can't be what they're claiming because of the pin configurations. I believe the 638's are different than the 650's. Also, did you make sure to meet the minimum threshold current?

If he ships these to me anyway, he'll be receiving at the very least a negative feedback. If he gives me a hard time, will do PP dispute and negative feedback calling him a liar. They have not been shipped yet so I know he can cancel it.

This is the first interesting thread with data on LPF in a while. Would you mind not spamming it with useless shit like this? Thanks. Might be beam correction optics. Also, I'm sending him an email asking to cancel the order.

I'm guessing these will have the same pinouts as the 638's typically have, which is the same as an 808. How do you feel about it?

Wish I could rep you again, but I gotta wait a while. I still demand answers for pinouts! Tell me or I will have everyone who posted in this thread banned!!!

You don't know how available these diodes will be down the road.

Does anyone know the pinouts for these diodes? Do they use the same pinout like the IR diodes use and other 635/8's use?

Well, I just purchased two of the 200mW diodes. NEW 200mW 638nm High Power red laser diode | eBay If these turn out to actually be 638nm, I'm going to be happier than a pig in a pile of sh!t :)

Goddamn loch ness monster....

Is it really worth getting arrested over? Missing time from work and losing wages? Here's a better solution; don't use your lasers outdoors in Ocean City, NJ. Edit: And if you get arrested, you're not going to just get locked up over night and let out the next day. You're going to have to go...

There are a million loop holes for them to take your laser. If you resist giving it to them, you'll probably end up getting arrested and still having your laser taken away. End of the day, arguing with a cop = bad idea.

Ignorance will not allow you to break the law and get away with it. The majority of cops are assholes and will take your laser away from you until they can at least verify the output and then return it to you if it's in compliance.

The cops aren't stupid. If they see a solid green beam cutting across the sky, they're going to say "I think it's more than 1mW, it's coming with me until we can verify its output".
