So glad it turned out good and she liked it.🍺 Don't often see the "gift for wife" laser build which I thought was awesome. Most the time I hear about the wife or significant other it is they don't want them to find. Lot of times asking if there is a payment option to not have it show up on a...

@rmarino Got a message back from X-Wossee. As I suspected and wrote in my reply to you over on ebay the 5V output is only capable of handling a very low current draw and to hold off trying till I heard back as powering a load like that with it might even cause damage. Here is what I got back...

Paul's advice still holds with the ACS500SE just you do have more headroom on the max load voltage with that driver so it can accommodate any variation we discussed above.🍺 It is possible or it is possible they have put generic pic up. That is why I mentioned it. I am sure I have a picture up...

The most basic features that will be common to every "laser driver" which is a circuit that was designed to drive laser diodes is operating in only in constant current, applying this fixed current source in a way that is non abusive during switching and is extremely clean compared to the...

Yes, ended up rebuilding every unit that I had used that driver with. There is one build test above that used the old 1.25A Mohberg linear which also had issues holding a constant current. The driver was designed properly but the current set resistors that were underrated for the current they...

Went digging for a thread I remember Daguin did but looks like the photobucket BS strikes again.:( https://laserpointerforums.com/threads/the-improved-and-the-greatly-improved-arctic-mod.61956/

Here is an old pic I used to use to explain best how to not burn your sensor and collect the most power by going past collimation.🍺 Hell 30 seconds would be a huge improvement over just a pic. If your units is still running pretty stable at 90 seconds sure you can probably stop there and...

That is awesome. You are making some of the best looking units I am seeing these days.🍺 A few notes and don't take it as me poking at you specifically as you know I love the stuff you are putting out but based on the power test video it shows the laser can run for a total of 10 seconds before it...

Yep I could probably go back and find the old timers giving me the same lectures as I loved nice peak readings when I was a new and gung ho for more power and staying on the top of that 445 chart. Can still hear Laserbee correcting me on the distance from the sensor. It may have felt like he was...

Due to a recent product review on an engraver head that the reviewer could not get to cut and engrave different materials at the rates advertised. I think there was an issue with the lens being contaminated during the testing but the reviewer did correctly call out an overstated power rating due...

That is the real part number for the diodes I sell as NDG700. I named them that as i did not know what the part number was when I first got them and did not have a fake datasheet for them. This is the oldest batch I could find in my archive. 6/15 Production https://imageshack.com/i/pmlC59Gpj...

Styro I could not have said it better. I would never want anyone to feel discouraged about sharing their experiences about anything as that is the value of this community. Even if it is when I drop the ball which I do occasionally. It happens to everyone and I believe when it does it is all...

Yep on the NUBM44-V2's in 20mm with ACS5500BU using one of SL's 20mm adapters just wire the positive and negative leads from the module to the appropriate contact points on the contact board in the pill of the host and then place the 20mm flush on top of the host body minus the adapter. Then...

AWESOME.... Great work both you guys that is epic.🍺

Sorry I have not had a chance to go over it all with you as there were quire a few things that I was going detail about your setup and what you have experienced. I am guessing you did not notice that I did send you a credit for the diode which was your main request as you were going to just get...

Took a double take on that one as thought his listing meant M7 threading. Was trying to compute how that was going to work with a lens element that has a 7mm diameter already.🤔 G-2 is 6.3mm diamater and a good fit for the M9 barrels already. Anyway...

Not sure about the 304's having Axiz comparable lens threading and might be a pain to swap out. On that you would need to ask Sanwu as it does not say on the site. Might have the top which acts as a focus ring glued on the lens with a stop so it can not be fully unscrewed to discourage...

Nice. Quite partial to the tiny hosts myself. Very similar to the build in my sig.:cool: Here is the diode. This is one of my favorite diodes. Makes a nice tight beam/spot that is pretty bright. I do notice a lot of shift on these when pushing hard. I usually run them around 275mA or little...
