    Windows 10 , Have you?

    I ended up coming across a way to delete it when I was exploring W10. I am leaving it for now. Transferring most of my pictures to my external gave me back most of my space. I really love Windows 10. The ONLY issue I've noticed is that my one-finger scrolling doesn't work. When I pull up the...

    NUBM07E 465nm 2.9W Diode Test (Hitting 470nm+)

    Awesome. So does that still have the ball lens on it? Did we officially end up deciding that we can work just fine with the ball lens and our normal lenses? Right? I never even ordered an NUBM44 for myself. I ordered this one the moment it hit DTR's store. I'm considering ordering another...

    Laser 303 dimming.

    You keep saying "true" and "real" 301/303, but what you're missing is that these are all incredibly cheap, low quality lasers from China. They will all be hit or miss, even if you happen to find the "original" 301/303. No matter where you order it from, it's a gamble. My wife ordered mine from...

    NUBM07E 465nm 2.9W Diode Test (Hitting 470nm+)

    You are the man. How much power do you recommend for your 22mm 510 threaded heatsinks? To keep the run time above, say, 30 seconds or so? I know there are many variables, but just a ballpark estimate? Would they work with this diode at 4 to 4.5 watts and still keep a 30 seconds or more duty cycle?

    Mastech BenchTop Linear Power Supply HY3006D Brand New REDUCED SOLD!!

    Love it! Just used it to troubleshoot a 445nm build! Thanks a bunch! Rep incoming!

    Windows 10 , Have you?

    Yea, I went for the SSHD, and now I'm already thinking...maybe I should sell it and get a full blown SSD. I have an external HDD for storage anyways. Lol. But I'll probably get a new computer before I upgrade this one any further. Or a Surface. I would like a Surface I think. Back on...

    Laser 303 dimming.

    With the money you're wanting to spend, this is your only option. Open a return request with eBay. Ship it back, and buy another 303 laser. But be prepared for more disappointment. A 303 laser was my very first laser. It runs just fine, but only measures 25 to 30mW, not enough to burn even the...

    NUBM07E 465nm 2.9W Diode Test (Hitting 470nm+)

    Yep. Ordered one yesterday! I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve right now. Lol.

    Anyone Heard of This Laser Precision Corp LPM Sensor?

    Well I received it yesterday, and it is more accurate than I expected. I've tested it with several different lasers, and it has been within 5-10 mW on all of them when compared to my Laserbee 3.7W USB. Very satisfied with this purchase. The only issue with it is the internal battery. It's...

    NUBM44 6W+ 450nm Laser Diode

    I'm referring to the Superboost that Hiemal makes, not the SXB. They are different drivers, yea? I actually just ordered two SXD drivers. I'm interested in comparing them to see just how much more demand the Superboost places on batteries.

    NUBM44 6W+ 450nm Laser Diode

    Of course boost drivers aren't as efficient as buck drivers. This is why I'm asking. I already have a Superboost on hand. I am curious if anyone has used one to push 4.5 amps or higher. The Superboost is supposed to be capable of 5+ amps. I've got plenty of high current batteries that will work...

    Windows 10 , Have you?

    Edit: Laserbee software is working just fine. I actually just used it to make sure my new Ophir LPM is accurate. It is. I can now measure up to 10 watts. Cheers to new software AND hardware! :D I didn't clone my drive for this. I cloned it to upgrade to a solid state hybrid drive before I...

    NUBM07E 465nm 2.9W Diode Test (Hitting 470nm+)

    Lol umm...from your listing, dude. Haha. These sellers are starting to make me think they're all super sketches.

    Windows 10 , Have you?

    Here goes nothing! I just cloned my hard drive to this new solid state hybrid drive I'm now running, so I can effectively do a 100% revert to the exact state it is in now. BTW, this is my first solid state drive. Do I need to disable disk defrag for my hybrid drive? I'm sure there's no way to...

    20mm shell ( revised)

    That is amazing. Did you build this or MrCrouse? I'm confused about the specs, though. You say 4.0mA, but I'm guessing you mean 4,000mA or 4A? Also, 2,400mW seems very low for an NDB7A75 with a G2 lens. That is around the 1.7A level in DTR's tests. Do you mean 4,200mW? These diodes are capable...

    NUBM44 6W+ 450nm Laser Diode

    Has anyone used a Superboost driver to drive one of these yet?

    Super Boost Drives (5.5+ amp capability!!)

    Anyone used one of these for 4.5 or 5 amps yet? I've got one, and I'm trying to decide between using it or an SXD.

    501B to 510 connector

    How much power do you think these 510 threaded heatsinks can handle to stay above at least 30 second duty cycles? This is my first build using one. I didn't! I had a perfect mod laying around! Perfect except for the 10 second timer. Lol. I am going to buy one of the same mods, but mechanical...
