Oh wow I guess LSP must have been the person I got the cylinders from off eBay cause they look the exact same.. If my printed mount I should get tomorrow doesn't work out I'll give LSP a try. The C6 host isn't very complicated. Jayrob sells a C6 Aurora kit that I have used several times and I...

Well right now I'm just working with a regular C6 aurora host. I literally used Popsicle sticks zip tied to the front of it to mount the lenses (never intending this to be a permanent solution tho). I was able to align the lenses here and there nothing that lasted very long but the 5x cylinders...

Do you sell those cylindrical lens pair? I really want to build a hand held optically corrected NUBM44/07E but don't really like the aesthetics of the mag pictured : ( Also, I have a pair of cylinders I got yesterday and have been having trouble mounting them correctly onto my NUBM44. one...

looking at the data sheet however it says 510nm min 515 nm typ and 530nm max

Seems like I would have noticed that in the title. I wonder if they made that change recently or if it was actually always advertised like that. . .

Thanks for sharing that. I hope I have the same results with the one I ordered. I'd really like to start expanding my wavelength collection of nice beam spec single mode lasers. Don't get me wrong raw power is great but that I can personally satisfy with one single laser. Diverse colors and a...

Are you asking what it actually is so you can replace it with a new one?

Saw this on eBay today and was wondering if anyone has any experience with it. New OSRAM 515nm 520nm 30mW Green Laser Diode LD PL515 TO38 3 8mm | eBay Data sheet can be seen here: Green Laser | Visible Laser | OSRAM Opto Semiconductors $20 for the diode isn't very expensive so I'll...

Was just playing with my laser and noticed something. I think the high power of this diode may have damaged the AR coating on my G lens. I unfocused the laser to a wide spot and noticed there is a dim bar across the middle of the output and as I continued to focus the laser sure enough that dim...

@Alaskan Man I love all the pics you post especially the expander pics. I'm definitely going to build an optically corrected handheld with this new diode and was thinking about throwing together an expanded for it as well and seeing what you have going there has sealed the deal for me. One...

Wow I never should have taken a break from the hobby/forum I missed so many many amazing things. That dragons head looks so nice it makes my diode look like a flashlight! If you don't mind me asking what are the focal lengths of those 2 cylindrical lenses you used to tame the red and what...

Subscribed! Love your work. I plan on doing the same thing as far as taming this new 470nm diode in a hand held. This thread is definitely going to be a big help. Most likely going to need to contact someone on here who can do the machining on a custom host able to fit corrective optics. I know...

I was just fiddling with my laser and noticed that right after I turn it off a little faint glow still shines from the diode for about 5 seconds until it slowly fades out. Has anyone else noticed this with the 44?

How do you go about testing the voltage sag of a battery when you connect it to a laser? I have been running my NUB44 with an SXB drawing 8.69 amps off either a single Sanyo NCR18650GA 3500 mAh 10A cell or an LG MJ1 3500 mAh 10A cell. I'm just curious how much these newer cells will compare to...

I was testing something like this the other day with Fujik thermal compound which I used to fill all the space in my C6 module (a direct press design not an Aixiz) after heat sinking the back of a diode with copper plates and driver the same way. I Found that it does actually work better than I...

No apology necessary! Looks absolutely amazing to see that wavelength in such a nice beam. I just hope someday I'll get around to making a nice corrected handheld with this diode so I can see that in person.

Any chance of you uploading some pics of the corrected beam profile and set up. I would love to see how you accomplished this it sounds amazing!

Really excited about getting my hands on one of these. Glad to see progress is still being made on them.

I've found that a lens pen works best unless the lens is very dirty in which case I will use canned air then Ziess lens cleaner. Can't remember where I read it but Ziess Nikon and one other lens cleaning formula I can't recall were the only brands found to actually be effective on their own in...

Welcome! DTR is definitely a good choice to buy from so sounds like you have done your reading. Builds can be difficult sometimes but the sense of accomplishment you get when that beam of light comes blazing out of your first build is great. I remember my first one back when I was a build virgin...
