Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 Price reduction! Everything (laser, batteries, charger, DVD RW drive) for $40 plus shipping. That's a firm price and won't be reduced further. Waiting for PM from anyone interested.

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 Well, hey! It looks like I got a good lens. I'm glad something is looking good! :p It seems that I'm needing all the help I can get!

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 Is that a good or bad thing?

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 Since I've been advised to post photos of the lens my laser has, I took a couple pictures so you all can see it:

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 It most likely does. The one I'm offering is from a Toshiba laptop that I bought in December of 2010.

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 The buyer that made the offer has backed out, so the laser, batteries, charger and DVD RW drive are still available......

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 See, that's the thing. More stuff to buy. That's what I'd like to avoid. Right now, I'd just like to be done with it all. I just got an offer from someone (at a reduced price). We'll see how that all turns out.

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 Wouldn't fixing it require buying more items for it (driver, diode, etc.) along with testing equipment? I don't have any of that. I wasn't an electronics hobbyist when I bought this laser and have no electronics building experience.

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 Sorry, I didn't mean to sound defensive. I appreciate the time you took to show me the prices of the components. The reasoning I used when coming up with a price is what someone could buy it for used, minus the cost and trouble of repairing...

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 If this is the case with all the components you mentioned, why is it that other people on this forum have been able to post and sell the same laser I have? An item can be broken down into it's individual parts and then a price named as a...

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 ADDING ITEM TO DEAL: My laptop computer just stopped working (monitor died), so now I have a DVD RW drive which contains a laser diode that could probably be put to good use by someone here with the technical knowledge needed. I will include...

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 AAAaaand getting back to the original topic of the thread.... Laser and batteries and charger are still for sale and awaiting the PM of an interested buyer! :)

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 That is my preference. I would just rather be done with it than keep putting more money into it. Maybe get something better in the future.

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 I appreciate the idea, but is there a way you could walk me through the steps of finding out whether it's the driver or the diode? Maybe you could tell me how to take it apart and what to look for. Keep in mind that I don't have electronic...

Re: For Sale: SF501b 445nm blue laser "as is". $50 Well, the laser worked perfectly fine one day until I put it away that night. Then I picked it up the next day and the light that came out of it was super dim. Does that sound like the driver is dead, or the diode?

Re: For Sale: SF501b 455nm blue laser "as is". $50 Thanks for pointing that out! Fixed it now. :yh: What you're referring to as a "flashlight" for 7 bucks is actually a laser that originally cost $100. I'm glad you like my photography, but you might be even more amazed by the fact that...

After my laser died, I got my batteries tested too and got the exact same results. I had them tested at an electronics store. Right away after I heard about the voltage being higher than specified, I figured the higher voltage probably fried my laser's diode, but the technician told me that a...

Re: For Sale: SF501b 455nm blue laser "as is". $50 I've seen their offer, but right now I'd just like to sell it rather than put more money into it for parts and shipping both ways. Maybe in the future I'll be interested in getting something else that's built better. If someone wants to buy...

What would you advise him to do with his laser now?

I'm assuming they would have been if within the first 6 months.
