Yeah, I'm planning on going mechanical engineering. I'm going out on a limb, but are you an engineer? I built my first laser when I was 16. I really hope you do not think I'm some dishonest and dirty kid. I have never had any problem buying or selling stuff on LPF, and I value the forum and...

I said I never operated it without a lens (for the very purpose of not getting dust/particles inside). You don't mean the mark on the can, do you? Edit: I think I see something on the window, but could you maybe crop your pic more and use higher res? Please forgive me if I sounded defensive...

Will you check that, please? I honestly didn't notice anything unusual before I shipped it, granted I only used it for 10-15 minutes and never without a lens. Did you really have to open a Paypal dispute before I could even respond? I PM'd you btw

Nope, but having used it, I would say it is perfect for the job. Although you must use a high quality IMR cell (at least 18650 size) and heatsink the driver well. I thought about using it for mine, but I already had an SXD in my host.

Re: Fs: CUSTOM LASER HOSTS FOR HIGHER POWERED BUILDS. :drool: man, thats nice! If only I had the money... Good luck with the sale!

Re: Fs: CUSTOM LASER HOSTS, NEW HOSTS ADDED TODAY FOR 6W DIODE. 7/5/15 Dang, missed it! That's a sweet looking host

If you have enough funds, I'd recommend hanging around here a while and checking the buy, sell trade area. A bunch of great deals on very high quality (and power) builds by members pop up all the time. Just make sure you know your safety.

Re: NUBM44 6W+ 445nm Laser Diode That explains why its so insanely bright. I didn't notice the color until I used my other 445s. I'd estimate in the upper 450's possibly. Also, Anyone want mine? I decided I want to use my cypreus II for something else and modify another host for this diode...

Same I'd be surprised if you don't sell the drivers at least. It's very nice to have some reasonably priced ones, and also I really like Hiemals super boosts. I'm going to write him a review, see if I can't help him sell some more. He mentioned he might have trouble assembling all the boards...

Re: V1 445nm Laser Diode Thanks @CDBEAM. I was thinking about putting it into an mss-ssw3, which would give me both copper and finned aluminum, but I didn't have a driver already in that and it doesn't take a full module. Nice. I was going to go with the 1.5 watt green, too, but then this...

Re: V1 445nm Laser Diode It's an 18650 sized host, so not huge, but it is pretty heavy for its size. Solid copper, I bet it could do over a minute at room temp, but the longest I've run it continuously is 20-30 seconds. It got warm after two or three such runs depending mostly on starting temp...

Re: V1 445nm Laser Diode Here's what I did with mine: It's insanely bright for a ~450nm laser beam. I am hoping that it's 7 watts (@4.9A), but I have no way of testing it's output. I used a g7 lens, but the divergence is still worse than that of the NDB7875 with a g9 lens. With a g9, the...

Re: Building a laser. Then giving it away. Blue!

Re: V1 445nm Laser Diode What current do you recommend, DTR?

Ohh that makes sense, thanks ARG

Sweet. Excuse my ignorance, but why is damage threshold important?

I didn't see anything on the max power the new ones can measure, is it the same as the x4? 3.7W?

No one in the US, but I'd still be in for one if we got ten, or however many the minimum is.

Maybe show the police some pictures of the camera pointed at your property and see if they can't do something about violation of privacy. If nothing else works, I'd say laser It's simple enough to tape the button on a cheap ebay pointer and stick it on a tripod. Doesn't really matter what...

That's the driver protection. I'm surprise he hasn't told you, you have to quickly half press the clicky 5 times in three seconds to disable this safety feature.
