That diode is rated for 50mW, but can be pushed to ~100mW. My build with it topped out at 102mW. Not sure what the laseing threshold is, so not sure if you can drive it under 50mW.
These green diodes heat up alot though, so you won't have a long duty cycle in that tiny host.
Actually I have thought about connecting directly. That was another push for me to make this app. I figured if I could get the graphing in place, then I could work out reading the data stream off the meter.
I may actually have that same adapter, but haven't tried connecting the X4 to my Galaxy...
Hey guys, I threw together this android app and thought I would share.
I've wanted to make this app ever since I got my Radiant X4 LPM. After much metering, I began to play with exporting the graph data from Lightwave and loading multiple charts to compare.
I also have used Peregrine with my...
The 532nm is causing the dye to fluoresce. 405nm should light it up even better. With a low powered 405 it should look better with the laser being less visible, and the dye more reactive.
Wait... when i got that email about their policy change, i thought it said they changed the time you have to open a dispute. So instead of having 45 days to open a dispute, you now have 180 days.
I got it too. I opened the link on my galaxy tab and it redirects to a hookup site.
"Thousands of beautiful women in the MI area" was at the top of the page.
I've got a jar with a bar magnet sealed in the center and iron filings around it. The manet can be moved up and down in the center. Does a better job of showing magnetic field shape than this, and much simpler.
That is one awesome build! The gold defiantly makes it look much better than mine! You got to love the run time on this host too. (Although a 1W green will get it warm quick..)
+rep for you sir.
Thanks. I tried with just a q-tip to no avail. So I tried dipping one end in 91% isopropyl alcohol and wiped with that end plus the dry end. Then I used a squeeze bottle to blow on it. That worked, looks much better.
I just put one of these in a Cypreus-IIb yesterday. This diode defiantly puts out the heat! Even in all this copper it get warm in ~40 seconds.
It also looks like I got something on the diode window. These are pics of the raw output.
Does it look like this will hurt the diode? Should i try...
Wow, this is the second thread I've seen where a laserbtb shipment was miss delivered. Rifter, the first "victim" had his delivered to the wrong address and i don't think it was resolved. At least you caught it in time, and DHL worked with you.
Yeah, I've had some that were wired wrong and i had to hunt for a place to solder the positive lead. Definitely had some fustration with them.
I think Flamingpyro sells contact boards that aren't recycled driver boards.
Sounds right. Amperage is what affects optical output, assuming enough voltage is there for the diode. The m140 drops between 4-5V, just how much depends on how much current you feed it.
As long as your constant current driver can supply that voltage while regulating current, then the current...
The anodizing probably won't let you get away with wiring it like that. If using the c6, just wire positive and negative Vin to the battery contact board.
According to Wikipedia, gamma rays have a wavelength <10 picometers, which is smaller than an atom.
From what I've read, some around LPF, xray lasers are extremely difficult and impractical. I doubt anyone will produce a gamma laser anytime soon...
