Pmed you jake, I have one.

Looks good for a basic start. I'd blacken the page where the banners begin though or something to that effect. It looks a bit messy atm, otherwise looks great.  :) Also I modified the banner a little bit, I realised the gradient won't be compatible with some monitors brightness levels so I...

Cool, no worries ;)

So something simple like this? :)

I could mock something up if you want me to try, what exactly are you after?

I just mean that from the sounds of what people say, being shocked by a camera or flyback is something you don't want to do all the time, especially on purpose, but this thing I was playing with for hours. It's more than a shock pen, but doesn't make your body numb or anything.

This isn't as severe as what others are mentioning in here but it's fun, you can turn this http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.3441 into this http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=SuBQLFRByVU Leaves burnmarks on skin on metals and strips teflon.

Next round of cycles... On @ 103mW, after 30 minutes 108mW On @ 106mW, after 50 minutes 109mW On @ 109mW, after 75 minutes 115mW On @ 113mW, after 90 minutes 116mW The whole top section of the host gets a bit warm after 30 or so minutes, and after 50 minutes you can really feel the warmth in...

Nice builds, those beampics look awesome 8-)

I think since joining this forum about a year ago I've easily spent over $1000 dollars on laser parts, LD's, hosts, circuits etc..

Re: Forward Voltage Characteristics of 1N400x Diod IN4004 is good to use as well, it's all I've been able to use.

Daguin, that is exactly what's happened here I think  :) I haven't been watching the output consistently but looking at it now and then to see what is happening. That picture above is the last one I took, so the worse dark spot stage This picture below is about 2 hours beforehand And before I...

That's awesome. I still can't get over how neat it looks in that host.

Thx Larry but I'm not to worried, I just want to see how this build affects the life of the diode at high currents and durations and plus If I measured this without a lens it could be closer to 180mW I believe. Now I've been keeping this thing on for a while lately and it's starting to do some...

I can't do them, I don't have the patience, but I like getting them to make these patterns with http://www.math.ucf.edu/~reid/Rubik/patterns.html

This one from radioshak looks pretty cheap http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062731&tab=features Depenging on what your doing, this stuff works a charm as well http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062744 Hope this helps  :)

I'm in Australia as well, it sounds like you're only after a module (for your scanpro) which as I understand is totally legal to import. It's just pointers that are banned.

Wow, thats a good laser, and sounds like its going strong. I can't wait to see some BR over 160mW. All the PHR diodes I have had have been quite under ma ratio. My personal leadlight PHR is 125ma for 100mW and gets rather hot after a minute or so. I just use this on occasion, maybe 10 minutes a...
