At the time I think they just called them 495nm. It probably is slightly lower. I think I meant the 5th picture seemed more blue than normal. Like other have noticed; it seems more blue to my eyes when the area is already lit, but if completely dark it seems to appear more green. It is kinda...

I bought a couple cfmod "pens" and wanted to put in the GH04955A2G that I got from Styro becuase I really liked the way jnrpop's looked. This was my fist time pressing a diode and it went good! :D I picked up the powder coated black 22mm HS and adapter is from Lifetime, and I'm glad I did...

Something I recently ran into was that some of the 22mm heatsinks are too small to fit the rda adaptors :( What adapters and heatsinks did you get? Im practicing tapping 3mm holes in my "too small" 22mm heatsink for the ground connection.

I just got my press today. Gonna stick one of these I got from stryo in a cfmod vape "pen". Hopefully it goes well. This color looks great. Ill try to take pics with it next to one of the older 495 that was (before?) this batch.

I would say it serves its purpose.. I can stand it upright, place it on things without worrying about shorting things, and still plug a USB into it. It was still all around cheaper than the alternatives too; which is great because this is just a hobby for me.

Would like to see your tweaked version. The one I had printed was just from the files. Some parts are very thin. I just snipped off some parts, used some electric tape, and called it done. (I did not print this)

Next time it might be telling if you ask them what type of diode is used. If they don't know than thats a bad sign. If its 450nm than maybe its a PLTB450B diode?? No way to tell for sure without checking it. There are some members here that might be willing to measure the output for you. Other...

That would be cool. I would be interested in one if price is reasonable. :)

Re: new mini host-14500x2 They look very nice. Do they accept 12mm modules?

I see the powder coating is going well. Is that still for sale with the adapter? If so and Merc doesn't want to buy it; I would be interested in it :whistle:

Ya, I could be wrong but I think those 22mm heatsinks just need the items below to make it all fit together. I think the heat sink screws into the rda adapter. Than to the aspire. Aspire CF Mod 510 3d Rda adapter

I have a few led flashlights that can catch things on fire (not at a distance though). I haven't really seen that led before, but it looks cool. Everyone seems to be into the XHP-70 leds, they need less voltage and have about the same lumens. Its hard to practically dissipate the heat, and have...

Im thinking, pen build. Cant wait

Put me down for 1 Sharp GH04955A2G 495 plz

This build transfers more destructive energy than all of my lasers combined :whistle: But... it seems most high power c02 lasers need to be pumped with a coolant, and need a beefy power supply. It would be expensive, and fragile. It might be "cooler" to pack a lot of blue laser diodes into...

Dayyyyum! Those are almost too cheap. Too bad their Efest 18650 are currently sold out. I might have to get a pile of those.:beer:

It is new. Those happened to be the cells laying around that were charged at the moment (I have access to a lot of old laptop batteries :evil: so I get tempted to use them sometimes). I might have to do it again with the "acebeam" protected batteries that it came with. The battery thermal test...

Pretty cool :cool: thats quite the setup. Do you see a square-ish artifact with the G2 lens on your 495? I just recently ordered some 2 element '520' lenses to see if it looks any different.

Humm, what do I do with mine mostly? Cut those pesky mayflies in half! :gun: (crane flies for you other people).

Man, this makes me want to do a 465 now. I was gonna wait for a 480/488 but I can't hold my breath on those.
