Yes, The power source is 2 18650s in series. Total estimated current draw should be around 2200-2400mA MAX. I expect it should be more in the ballpark of 2000mA. I THOUGHT I read somewhere that 18650s had a .5C discharge rating, but then read somewhere recently that they have 2C. Maybe it's...

Hey everybody - been gone for a while busy with tons of stuff... but I"m back and trying to add in a power level indicator (via LM3914). I currently have the LM3914 circuit connected directly to battery. Parallel to that, I have a switch circuit via transistor that turns on 3 drivers via logic...

I have 99% of my batteries from pulling from dead laptop packs (there are still a few good ones inside). Are planning on wiring them all up together? (careful, 3.7V(4.2) per cell adds up very fast! I have micro welded with a few of these as a science experiment... very dangerous, do not try...

Re: FEELER - GITD Laser Shirts ... AGAIN? There doesn't seem to be much excitement at the moment, so I'm going to suspend the run and maybe look into making a couple different designs. I'll put a new thread up when those are ready. Sorry guys :(

Re: FEELER - GITD Laser Shirts ... AGAIN? Cool, I'll most definitely be getting a couple more for myself.. :) Well, these will definitely not be done by the end of the year, but we still have a couple of colder months (unless you're on the southern hemisphere, then it should be pretty warm...

Re: FEELER - GITD Laser Shirts ... AGAIN? Let your friends know about this as well. The more we can get, the better. Almost every run I've done, I've had a few local friends that have nothing to do with lasers but love the glow in the dark laser radiation symbol. Point is... it's a really cool...

Re: FEELER - GITD Laser Shirts ... AGAIN? Cool, we got about 5 so far. If we can get a few more I'll make this an official run!

Re: FEELER - GITD Laser Shirts ... AGAIN? As the buys in the past, if we can get enough interested, I'll start tracking orders. We will need at least 12 people interested... but 20 or 30 is better - obviously. :) We have 4 interested so far!

Re: FEELER - GITD Laser Shirts ... AGAIN? mhemling - haha I would love to have a shirt with that on there! ... but we don't need to draw any attention. Nay sayers would fight to ban lasers...

Re: FEELER - GITD Laser Shirts ... AGAIN? Yeah sorry... here's a link to a previous run. Has pictures and size charts http://laserpointerforums.com/f55/closed-laser-shirts-round-3-order-now-76372.html#post1100207

I've been gone for a long time - sorry fellas. Had other life priorities come up. Anyways, I wanted to see if anyone would be interested in another Laser Shirts run! I love the original design and am open to doing those anytime, but I know the forum is starting to get saturated with those. If...

I've experienced quite the opposite in my day to day interactions with my peers. It's probably only about 66% of the time the battles come up and it's always the Apple users who don't necessarily bash any other device in particular, but go on and on and on about how fantastic their Apple product...

Right on! Thanks Speedy

Yeah, I wouldn't want to have to deal with the live ammo on those without proper equipment anyways. haha Just one 105 if you can get your hands on one, 2 40s and 8 25s? For a pointer, true, but I haven't seen manufactured high powered ones. For my particular application, I want to mount the...

Pyro, haha I think it's a BRILLIANT idea! Livinloud, that looks awesome! VERY cool build! Now - my application is I want to mount these as running lights on my motorcycle... So a battery compartment isn't needed, however, that space would easily be replaced by solid heatsinking. While driving...

Does anyone know of any bullet shaped hosts or want to make some for me? I am wanting maybe 4 of them. 4 inches long, wide enough for a 20mm pcb to fit inside. Looking for something like this: Thanks!

Using this code: EMCXRVT24, you can get this BDR drive: link for $49.99 after $20 mail in rebate. This is a great deal if it really is a 12X and if the diode is harvestable (anyone tried their luck on this yet?), and if you want to use the other diodes and sled and motors etc. Just thought I'd...

Yep, that's exactly what I was getting at in the other post that both you guys commented in. It's nice to see a visual of it and confirm I understood it right. Thanks for the vid! I hope others find their way to this before they fry any diodes because of a lack of understanding about their test...

Wow, sorry about that double post... I haven't had a problem with that in ... maybe over 10 years? But in my own defense, I was using the University's wireless when I wrote that :na:

Yep still looks like a good deal... hoping they DO come at spec or better. I'd love to add a laser to my arsenal that is pre built. (done nothing but custom everything so far) Plus all those goodies that come with em! I think that even shipping everything to one place and then paying an...
