    Noob DIY question

    Of course. A wire, wifi, bluetooth, motion detection, IR, whatever any other switch will work off. You simply make it have that type of switch when you make it....its as hard to turn on as a flashlight or yard light, etc.

    DragonLaser 1W, Truth revealed

    Was there going to be a "NOT!" or something that got left off? ONE total post, and its essentially an advertisement? A little dyslexia on the thumb orientation? No knowledge that there are higher power than 1 watt...and IS it 447, or, 445 nm? The mystery thickens. :thinking:

    Changing the Color of Lasers/LEDs with Liquid Nitrogen!

    Nice! Now lets think about WHY the blue green didn't shift as much. :D

    Lasers to help make bicycles safer?

    Self driving cars already have proximity sensors to auto-brake them, etc. Simply adding transponders for example might allow additional warnings for either bike or car, etc.

    NUBM44 6W+ 450nm Laser Diode

    Re: V1 445nm Laser Diode Me too...I was switching back and forth between sources and briefly treated the pocket as an appendage, and accidentally hit the on button reaching in for the next light...and the rest is history. I am VERY glad it was tilted outboard and burned through some bills and...

    Will a laser pointer blind out a security camera? Creepy neighbor!

    Most of those cameras are not telephoto, they are wide angle, so as to cover more of the property, etc. IE: There's an excellent chance that no detail, especially through a window, would be visible. If on the other hand, the camera is more sophisticated, and an operator can swivel/aim it as...

    NUBM44 6W+ 450nm Laser Diode

    Re: V1 445nm Laser Diode I had a 445 3 watt go on in my pocket accidentally yesterday....and I first found out as I smelled something burning, looked down, and saw a bright blue dot on the ground with smoke coming from it (It was setting leaves on fire). I quickly hit the off button, and...

    Direct green question

    Artificially limiting your power source is what's holding you back, and, to compensate for the low power you decided is what you need to use for whatever reason...you'd simply need a lot of them to accomplish the same thing, and add drivers that can take the weak source, and regulate it to...

    looking to build first laser HELP

    You could get an el cheapo pointer, and take it apart to see what's inside....as starting point. Putting it back together again would be very similar to building one. :D

    New? What to include in your Welcome Thread!

    I think of it AS a community....so, introductions make that aspect work. Its also online, so, some people have a right to protect their privacy. Hence screen names instead of just your name, and so forth. If you could not see profiles unless registered etc, as a QA/QC step on...

    NUBM44 6W+ 450nm Laser Diode

    Re: V1 445nm Laser Diode After the power requirements, etc, are worked out, I'd love to see what kind of cooling/heat sinking I'd need to use one. Very Very Cool. :gj:

    NUBM44 6W+ 450nm Laser Diode

    Re: V1 445nm Laser Diode I don't think it CAN be the same diode...as its a new diode, that was compared to the old one. Its also ~ the same price according to the OP. The old one is NDB7A75 - You say NBD7A75, assumed a typo...? :D

    Re: what does this mean? am I getting scammed?? USPS sucks. Their tracking is very piss poor. It takes forever to update, and, then, when it does, it will say the package will arrive on X day, and then, it doesn't, it comes a day or 2 later. Don't blame jdawg. :D

    Can i take my TK75 on a JetBlue plane??

    LOL Obviously, 3.4 oz of explosive lotion is not enough to worry about, but, 5.6 oz is enough lotion to take down the whole plane with. Sometimes I wonder what TF they are thinking when they confiscate someone's nail clippers, as they could be used as a weapon. If I had my choice of a laptop...

    Irregularly shaped laser dot

    And its a fake cell too. There's no such thing as a real Ultrafire, and, 3000 mAh is not a real number, indicating its a fake cell. There were 2900 and 3100 for example, but no 3000. The loss in power could be because inside the cell's new wrapper is an old laptop battery....and, its toast...

    Can i take my TK75 on a JetBlue plane??

    From the TSA instructions, loose cells are the problem, and IN the light is preferred, as that way, they can turn the TK75 on to confirm it IS a flashlight...and, if you have spare cells, in cell carriers (Not loose) is OK. Carry on is a big no no for any light/device large enough to be deemed...

    Seeing your Infrared Laser

    When calibrating night vision shooting ranges, typically, the IR dot is VERY visible, but the beam itself tends not to be.

    mirochannel heatsinking

    The manifolded systems, with alternating inlet/outlet channels, help reduce the pressure drop issues, and increases the heat transfer.

    What is your favorite part of the Visible Spectrum?

    Is this a different question than "What is your favorite color?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTuojHso3YA :D

    Efest IMR 14500

    PRIMARY lithium cells have lithium metal, but RECHARGEABLE Lithium ion cells do not have any lithium metal - its just ions...already wet ions at that. There is a flammable electrolyte though...under the wrong circumstances. The strip down the side and the PCB, if you don't take it apart...
