Re: Lava Micro FlexDrive Driver (lavadrive2) fits it was a low battery. It's a 3v lithium, and I've discharged it down to 2.5. Hope that's not too far.

Re: Lava Micro FlexDrive Driver (lavadrive2) fits I built a blu-ray pointer w/ one of these drivers. I noticed when moving the laser quickly, it produces a dashed line. I'm guessing this is the regulator? Let me know, because if not, I have a loose part in my pointer. thanks

How I cracked it.... Those meredith adapters are deep. Pressing the diode flush w/ the adapter leaves a lot of space above the diode. I took a little screw and used it to press the diode all the way in the adapter. I was using pliers to press it in, and the front of the diode got push all the...

ARG!! I cracked the lens on my 2nd diode when I was pushing it into the meredith adapter. Then I tried to grind around the sides of the can, adapter, and all, to get the top of the can off. I did succeed in doing that, but all I'm left w/ is a windowless LED

I had the same thing happen at 80ma, so............ I dono what's going on w/ these things. Worked fine.. Turned it off. Turned it on again later, and it was very weak. I cranked the power to it, and it lased again, but had the yellow around it. Then I killed it.

as far as removing AR from acrylic lenses, just search google for "remove ar coating" and there are a tun of products for it. They don't work on glass, cause most of the products will dissolve glass. But, they're products designed to remove the coating from glasses.

I have AR on my glasses. I went out target shooting w/ some friends and something from the guns got on my glasses. It was an oily mix of gunpowder residue and oil, and gun cleaning solvents. Basically, I got a little splash onto my glasses out of the back of the rifle. When I wiped my glasses...

It looks fine w/out a lens! Just a blurry rectangle, like any other unfocused diode laser. It's as I bring it into focus, is splits into the main dot, and the artifacts. It's certainly usable. I just turned the laser on in the daylight again, and I don't see it. It was very noticeable at...

I got a diode today to replace one I killed last week. When I focus it, there are a few artifacts. to one side of the dot is a small line, then another longer line. (they're more like long smudgy dots than lines, if that helps you picture it) I didn't notice the same thing on the diode I had...

Be afraid. It'll stop you from loosing your vision. Get some laser goggles Don't shine it at anything that could reflect back to you. Getting it in your eye probably won't cause you to go completely blind. You'll get blind spots, or blind lines that you notice while looking at a bright sky, or...

I didn't say a lot before, because im new to all of this, but I had similar low power issues w/ my diode. I gave it about 90mw w/ an lm317 ccs. It was always in a laser lens assembly which is larger than the Aixiz. (so basically, it was always heatsinked) It looked very dim to me. (but I write...

Re: PHR-803T HIGH POWERED HD-DVD diodes! OFFICIAL DOH! Must be nice. I just figured out the opposite.

Olive oil turned dark red while shining my blueray at it, but the beam did not go through to the other side. (I shined through just about every liquid i could find in my house :)) So far, peanutbutter is still my favorite, since it not only fluoresces, but it glows! I'll have to try other...

Re: PHR-803T HIGH POWERED HD-DVD diodes! OFFICIAL Oh yeah, this group buy is still a great deal. You're definitely taking your chances ordering DVD players/burners. I've ordered 2 drives, which were exact model specified for red open cans, which had unusable flat diodes in them. Never know...

Re: PHR-803T HIGH POWERED HD-DVD diodes! OFFICIAL since when are these not 803t's? I've killed 3 of them myself, and all 3 were 803t sleds. I ordered a couple of weeks ago. Maybe the new batch has a different sled?? I hope not, cause I ordered 3 more.

Peanut butter glows too! It looks like what a green laser would do to a glowing surface.. just a short faint glow behind the laser. now the violet laser on a glowing surface... WOW Does anyone know why peanuts glow? I couldn't find anything on google! Someone needs to write a paper :) If...

Is the regular aixiz 5mw red module ar coated? The cheap acrylic lens version.

Please keep us updated w/ this! I might want to do the same thing for the same reason.

Re: Laser Barrels V2. GB. Second run. Kryton Groov There was a little interest in another section of this forum about fitting your barrels w/ glass lenses. Is that really a possibility? Would I need to make just the glass lens screw in to the top of the barrel, or would I need to drill it out...

Thanks! Cause, that's exactly how I was testing it. Same w/ the blue I killed. No, actually, the blue was definitely positive that I was using to clip and unclip. But, still. I think it had something to do w/ me making the connection w/ the alligator clips. I think I'll order replacement dvd...
