Quote: Not Electrically Conductive: Arctic Silver 5 was formulated to conduct heat, not electricity. looks like this was taken from the AS5 website - only there is more to it then that - Arctic Silver Incorporated - Arctic Silver 5 Not Electrically Conductive: Arctic Silver 5 was formulated...

just a note - AS5 (artic silver 5) isnt the best out there in fact since its "silver" it will conduct electricity unlike others like the OCZ freeze you would want a ceramic based thermal paste if there is any way it can contact electronic connections - or carbon like diamond power take some...

thast not save unless they are in a whole body suite - but I would like to try this also know how the first bullet proof vest was tested? - the guy who made it took a 357 magnum and turned it around and shot him self in the stomach - it worked and he was OK

well this is a strange one but I am sure many people want to do this I want to shine my laser at a plane just to see if I can see it hit the plane - I dont want to get in trouble or cause a crash so dont worry I wont do this - but it would be cool if there was a plane that would fly a mile up...

the sound is just what I want my laser to sound like - just a little quiter thats all

yea the tail cap switch is great looking - maybe you could put one of those round keys there that are used on the arctic lasers and other commercially available lasers because of FDA rules also, I know this is expensive but get a CO2 laser engraver - I would pay upwards of $25-50 or more to...

just something that sounds sorta like a light saber but not the same because thats not needed - something that sounds like high voltage humming or something like that it will convince people how powerful it is if it makes sounds - even those laser pointers on guns that cops have in movies and...

the fan probably does the main thing I want a hand held laser to do well it makes the temp better thats good but it probably also makes a really cool wiring sound - I want my laser to go "verrrrrrrrrrrr" while its on because it makes it sound really powerful, lol

I dont understand - if you can get it to make a beam just see what color it is there is a difference between the 405 and 445 in color that you should be able to notice

it looks like there is a dim bot to line it up or is that just how it looks in the video - like a low power then really high power what is the power output - or approximate output if you dont have a meter please post more pics of the build and the electronics running it I really want...

maybe, but I just took some shrink tube and layered it on there intil its thick enough - it looks nice one thing I was wondering is these lasers are so close to UV that I have been told it can cause skin cancer - probably the 405's are worse but still if thats the case then can I get skin...

yea you can use the pics as a tutorial of sorts on how to put it together - if I had soldered everything like the leads to the board and stuff (if you didnt do the hot option for me) I would have posted them also maybe my next build the focusing ring is to small to be turned properly with the...

strangely enough I am having the same thing happen - 1090ma driver on a solar force 2900mha batteries when it started to blink I thought it was getting to hot, since it had been on for a min or 2 at the time - A 1 min duty cycle is hard to do if I am turning it on and have to go across the room...

does it still produce a beam or termination point you can see at distance? if so then its a really low powered 445 laser, maybe safe to use without glasses, from what I read these diodes can only go down to 100mW 50mW if you are lucky, so if its really low then that might be cool for a small...

it looks like a problem but I know that a pulsed laser can burn things way faster then a continuous wave one - but its probably not sosposta do that

um, I guess I was just saying

another question I just thought of, now this might sound stupid but you never know does closing your eyes, if they are already closed like you are letting someone use the laser and your only pair of glasses, if your eyes are already closed are you protected? sounds stupid but most people dont...

I have the style 35 and I must say DONT GET THE STYLE 35 there is light leaking all around the edges when I use it and i have had to make foam pads to block it, also light comes from my nose as well get the style 60 or 700 or 900 they should be much better at blocking all the light from all...

wonder if this will work to insert images into the forum - nope, I cant figure out how to make the images come up like everyone else does so sorry I got the hot option and it is set to 1090ma for some reason I dont have the pics I took of it outside at night, but there are 2 short videos if...

I just got my kit and I love it - its the gun metal one http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/4894/20101123061401.jpg here is a link to the pictures of the build ImageShack Album - 17 images almost forgot, this one is of the dot or "line" at 10 meters away...
