    Source for Blackbuck 8M driver?

    ok, I'll take a look. Thank you.

    Trustworthy Retail Source for 9mm/TO-5 infrared laser diode (808nm - 980nm)?

    Ebay source for 808nm 9mm laser diode comes from Wuhan, China which seems like a questionable source and location? (price: $29) THOR Labs seems a bit expensive but maybe more reliable? I don't know where Thor gets their diodes. (price: $86)

    Lasorb: Effective Distance from Laser Diode?

    Available literature seems to imply the Lasorb diode protection device needs to be connected to within 1cm (1cm maximum distance) from the laser diode pins. If the Lasorb device is located/connected too far away from the laser diode, the ESD protection which the Lasorb is meant to provide...

    Source for Blackbuck 8M driver?

    Hello all, I recently heard the Blackbuck 8M driver, which is out of stock at DTR and Barnett, is still in-production.....somewhere. I assumed it was out of production due to China's chip shortage but maybe not. I tried to contact x-wossee via ebay but no response. Maybe his geographical...

    Slotted Heat Sink Instead of Set Screw Heat Sink?

    ok, thank you for your suggestions, I will consider.

    Slotted Heat Sink Instead of Set Screw Heat Sink?

    Gentlemen, thank you for those examples of heatsinks! All of them are much better, IMHO, than a set screw which leans the entire copper module to contact only one side of the aluminum heatsink bore (which, IMHO, is less than ideal). However, I was wondering if any of us who have used a round...

    Slotted Heat Sink Instead of Set Screw Heat Sink?

    Has anyone tried to machine an aluminum heatsink with undersized bore (slightly smaller ID than the OD of the copper module for an interference fit) and cut a slot lengthwise through the aluminum heatsink to produce an open gap. When pushing the copper module into the aluminum heatsink bore...

    Diode Press Tools Now Available for TO-5 & TO-18 12mm Modules

    Finally, more diode presses! They're stainless and look great! Reasonably priced too. I think Barnett is the only place that stocks diode presses right now; even Survival Laser is out of them. Now, if we have a module bigger than 12mm diameter, has anyone tried this? Not quite as good as...
