Sorry, I didn't check the voltage while testing Pinout is the same as all other blue 9mm LDs, so when pins are to the left, positive top, negative bottom. view from the rear.

Call an ambulance, but not for me. 🔥🤣:LOL:

I've retested both again, with same results. For some reason, the A9G performs worse than the B9G, even though the A9G has better datasheet specs at lower powers. I suspect because of lower Vf, the B9G can be pushed farther since it produces less heat

⬅ Other Diode Tests Here are the test results for the NUGM02.

⬅ Other Diode Tests Here are the test results for the NDG7575. Not sure why this one performed worse than the 7475. Both were brand new, same test setup.

⬅ Other Diode Tests Here are the test results for the NDG7475.

⬅ Other Diode Tests Here are the test results for the GH05C01B9G. This diode performs slightly better than the GH05C01A9G, as expected. You can purchase this and other diodes on my store.

⬅ Other Diode Tests Wow! We have a new winner!!! 10 watts of optical output for a $30 USD diode!!! Behold, the world's most powerful 9mm single emitter multi-mode diode, the sharp 440nm GH04C06V9G. Beating both Osram PLPT9 450LB_E, and the previously crowned king of power, NUBM0F. This diode...

⬅ Other Diode Tests Here are the test results for the PLPT9 450LC_E. Unlike its predecessor, the PLPT9 450LB_E, this diode does not perform as well, unfortunately.

⬅ Other Diode Tests Here are the test results for the GH04C05Y9G. A very poorly performing diode unfortunately, one of the worst in the lineup.

⬅ Other Diode Tests Here are the test results for the blue laser diode GH04C05B9G. A very poorly performing diode unfortunately, compared to the competition. The diode failed catastrophically while testing on the spectrometer, after testing it on the LPM.

⬅ Other Diode Tests Here are the test results for the PLPT9 450LB_E. One of the top 3 best performing diodes in terms of power, equalling the NUBM0G. This diode is affordable, and can be had by some suppliers at around $15 USD at the time of writing this post (December 16, 2024) brand new...

⬅ Other Diode Tests Here are the test results for the NUBM47-A1. The gold standard of diodes for many years as it has been the best performing diode in the world for many years consecutively. Today, it still holds up its own, as they do come already canned, and are among the top 3 best...

If anyone has any requests, please add them to the thread All diodes already in the list are already planned to be tested eventually when I have the time

News is they are finally getting back to work tomorrow, December 17th! I have SO many packages being held, I doubt they will be able to delivery any in time...
