    FS: 1.8-2W 445nm Maglite 2C Laser!

    I am not familiar with Mag switches. Can you see a set screw? If so you could sacrifice a slightly larger allen key or cheap screwdriver by grinding it only slightly oversized and then hammering it into the set screw.

    Texas Beer Fest - May 7th, 2011

    The tread title got me thinking, American beer:crackup: But you do have beers not just blue Pabst, and Budweiser. :) (And yes, I do realise you started a revival of micro-brews.)

    OEM lasers in 26.5mm modules?

    I* have been wondering about the number of flashlights that use the 26.5mm drop-in with either LED or incan. Why is nobody making heatsinks and/or finished modules for them? (Moh, I am looking at you. :)) The only problem I can see is that tolerances of hosts may wary a bit and necessitate a...

    Dangers of amperage

    Some UPS units have 36 12V batteries in series, that is +432V.

    Potmodding/powersetting

    Yes, sounds likely. :) Hopefully there is something obvious on a P/I curve.

    Which laser pointer should i buy?

    Happy burning. :) (When you feel like upgrading, and want to buy from people here you should read this first and be warned, scammers show up now and then.)

    Dangers of amperage

    The mandatory household earth-fault relay cuts the power at 50mA leak current, a house's earth connection must have low enough resistance to prevent more than 50V standing voltage on any appliance. (so if your stove have an insulation error it will cut the power before it reaches 50V difference...

    Which laser pointer should i buy?

    The goggles are fine, at least for low powered hobby application. :D They are not as cool or comfortable as the +$100 professional ones, but OD 5-6 centred somewhere around 650-660 is just fine. (remember to buy a pair for everybody you want to show off the burning to.) I would buy the second...

    Which laser pointer should i buy?

    Those are nice choices. :) Rayfoss tend to sell nice hosts, I have not heard of the focus problem, but the second host is nicer anyway. :D Just remember that if you get a green or blue laser you will need different goggles.

    Potmodding/powersetting

    Well, yes ok. My question was more how to determine when the crystal set-up is getting as much power as it can take.

    FS:532nm 200mW Green Beam Laser Pointer DC 3V(free shipping)

    I see, so not just a larger bore module. It makes perfect sense to keep the host then. :)

    Potmodding/powersetting

    How does one decide the correct current for a pump diode? I have several pens, two app. 50mW, and now one +120mW green. The 50mW use app. 0.5A the +120mW about 0.75A. I am planning* on making a P/I curve for the 50mW ones and trying to find some optimal point. Does anyone have a guideline for...

    FS:532nm 200mW Green Beam Laser Pointer DC 3V(free shipping)

    Well, at least you will likely get a powerful module out of it, to fit in something else.

    Great buying experiences with Flaminpyro

    I came home from my vessel yesterday evening, and have just been to the post office to pick up some goodies. To my complete lack of surprise Flamingpyro have sent me what I ordered, in a timely fashion, and well packaged. The diodes are shorted with jumpers, in a antistatic bag, and then each...

    Here it is, bottom of the page. Acts of Gord - The Book of Annoyances And it was a retarded monkey. :D

    What can I do till I get glasses

    Seconded.

    Special battery.

    This is kind of odd. :thinking: One would think there is a marked for every combination of batteries/battery compartment. There is a ½AA and a ½AAA in alkaline and an almost ½x18650-16340 so why not a 22340 for those who prefer 7.2 to the 4.5 of 3xAAA? I have a nasty suspicion that the battery...

    Pay to repair laser with <15 min of use?

    :mad:

    FS:532nm 200mW Green Beam Laser Pointer DC 3V(free shipping)

    And there is no way to dismantle? Even with heavy tools?

    New DX green - SD 306

    Nice host BTW. :) A good looking alternative to the Rayfoss ones.
