    open can?

    Now that it's dead, let the autopsy begin. [smiley=evil.gif] With a little pressure, the inner popped out.

    So what's a good stable power you run the open cans at?

    open can?

    Now it's amazing how much it doesn't light up my hand. :-/ Everything ran cool, except for the trim pot which was warm to hot since it's rated at 500mA. I attached a heatsink to the LD too and with air cooling on both vreg and the LD I let it run @ 450mA for 2 hours. Sometime within those 2...

    open can?

    Yea, it's still alive and kicking. I'll have to rig a heatsink on the LD module and get some active cooling on it. Maybe run it constantly for a few days around 500mA. Guess I wouldn't mind much if it does die. At least we'll all have learned its limits. ;) It's amazing how much it lights up my...

    Okay, I did some experimenting. :) Found if you hold the pins pointing up and that little nubbin on the casing (visible in my pic) pointing toward you, then center is ground and the left is the red LD. I first was using my radio shack 6v lantern battery. At first I was limited by my DDL driver...

    *** BluRays for $25... ***

    Got mine yesterday. Thanks for all the hard work Daedal. Really appreciated. 8-)

    open can?

    Cool. Thanks for check things out. With your layout of pins, is that like going left to right in the angle of my 2nd pic, or reversed to that pic? I didn't want to poke around the diode with a meter in fear I'd send a bit of voltage the wrong direction and kill something. I also didn't want to...

    Blu-ray compact laser pointer for sale

    Don't forget about The Laser Box V2 people. Smallest box and highest quality you'll find around anywhere. These things aren't thrown together with duct tape like some other boxes. All high quality parts, professionally soldered, and durable construction...

    Do you think it's something like this one but in red form? http://www.ortodoxism.ro/datasheets/sanyo/DL-3150-105.pdf

    New 337nm Laser Diodes Being Designed

    Great. So all the Blu-ray and HD DVD players and movies will be obsolete in a few years once they perfect 337nm. Might want to hold off on that next upgrade purchase, eh? Just when you thought that would be it. No more movie formats or disc upgrades. Then they come out with this news. So what do...

    DIY BLUE RAY LASER POINTER HELP !!!

    I thought you can run a Blu-ray with 1 or 2 batteries. Don't you just need a good buck boost driver or something to boost the voltage up a bit?

    HD DVD Burner diodes

    Cause aren't the Xbox 360's not capable of HD DVD unless you purchase the external upgrade? Or are they now shipping 360's with built-in HD DVD capabilities?

    open can?

    Well, gutted my Samsung SH-S202J and got me one a dem crappy ones. What the hell do I do with one of these? Too frickin odd to mount inside anything. I could try to glue it to an AixiZ housing like one other guy did here. Can this thing be broken down any smaller? Crap. Oh well. Maybe I'll pick...

    FusionDrives GB - CLOSED

    Re: GB - $4 FusionDrives - PAYMENT PAGE UP That would be pimp to have a couple pins on the driver and ya gotta do is set a computer-style jumper in the right place. Maybe for version 2? :)

    Burner diode report - sort of...

    I'm trying the Samsung SH-S202J: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827151161 Damn, I thought this one was cheap when I bought it @ 24.99. They must have been out of stock on the 23.99 one, else I would have purchased that one. :) I got some experiments to do when it arrives...

    open can?

    Yea, I'll be mounting into the AixiZ module & maybe the body too for an extra heat sink. But the heat sink I was referring to earlier would be for my driver. Since anything over 100ma seems to warm up the vreg. I haven't yet gone over 180ma, so I'll be really gun shy with this thing. I'm gonna...

    open can?

    Well I got my Samsung on order too. I think it usually takes 2 days to ship to me, so yea, probably Wednesday. I'll have to piggyback a resistor in my driver to get it above 255ma. I think I'll also need a heat sink too. :o

    DIY Homemade laser diode driver

    I'm trying to figure how the fusion drivers can fit in an AixiZ housing. His dimensions are "0.693" by 1" or 17mm by 25.4mm". But the free space in an AixiZ housing is 0.41" by 0.75" or 10.3mm by 19.1mm and that doesn't count the leads of the diode. I'm thinking of getting a couple to see...
