    First LPM buying help.

    I'm pretty sure someone here on LPF is selling theirs for about half that. This week I saw it. Will find the post and update. EDIT: Here it is.

    Survival's 20A Diode Test Load

    I bought Survival's 20A Diode Test Load and discovered only Diode-1 (out of 8) was working properly. The other seven Diode's anodes appeared to be shorted to their respective cathodes. So I sent it back for them to test/verify and immediately bought another one thinking I just had a...

    Arcane II for sale and others

    Divergence is one of my main concerns. How would you fix it? Is the mid section removable and if so, two 18350 batteries fit and it'll run, just not as long?

    Arcane II for sale and others

    Ok, so it has a 6W+ NUBM44 450nm Laser Diode. Correct? Sci Fi sells theirs new for $400. Yours is $400. How old is yours and what is the condition of the host? What am I missing that makes this an insane deal? p.s. I'm also acutely aware of the shipping issues with Sci Fi so buying within...

    Just ordered a 1W 501B from sci-fi!

    So that reminds me, this was a good movie. And I was going to post that popular definition of insanity but this office guy Dwight says it's wrong... ...but I think I'm still seeing it happen ... :whistle: :wave:

    1.5w blue, safety question

    Something to consider when buying goggles for green (and often blue) lasers is also blocking IR wavelengths so you can also use them for green DPSS lasers. For example Eagle Pair 190-540nm & 900-1700nm Laser Safety Goggles at Survival.

    1.5w blue, safety question

    Alan has it right. That website may be misleading. The red goggles are more than likely for blue-green lasers while the green goggles are for red lasers. The drop down Color selection menu simply says red or green, not whether they're describing the color of the goggles or the laser color they...

    X pro V2

    While a 1W Arcane 2.0 can be considered a DEW (directed energy weapon), it has so much mass it can also be described as a KKV (kinetic kill vehicle) if used simply as just a 'blunt object'. :wave:

    X pro V2

    I may be restating the obvious but in case I'm not, to be explicit you already put it in backwards thus could have killed either the driver, the laser diode (LD), or both. You'll have to separately test each to find out. Make sure you have current control when testing the LD or you'll have yet...

    Mp1584en

    There is an older post on making an MP1584 a constant current source here. The last post (#30) The Lightning Stalker declares success making a 1.4A constant current source using an MP1584 with modifications shown in schematic and pictures.

    Need some explanations.

    Yes, you are right given the underlined statements are true. Good luck. Keep asking questions. That's what the forum is for. But make sure you're answering questions also for a productive dialog.
