    Best deal on 26 gauge silicone insulated wire and heatshrink

    I am ready to get some of this wire. I would like 20' of the red and 20' of the black. ALSO I have an axiz module pressed into a sink that I can not get to the back side of. Is there a tool that will thread into it where the lens threads into and will extract it that way? Get me a total and a...

    simple instructions for my flexmod p3 driver?

    Ok, so I just used a wire to bridge the 2 together instead of the resistor. I got everything together and set it to 1.8a. After taking a reading I am only getting 1950mw. The last m140 and g2 lens setup I did made 2600mw @ 1.8a I bought both diodes from DTR at the same time. can these diodes...

    simple instructions for my flexmod p3 driver?

    Ok, so since I am using 2 lithiums as the power source I can just solder a jumper between M+ and the + input?

    simple instructions for my flexmod p3 driver?

    I have all the tools and am ready to get this flexmod p3 driver dialed in for my 445 diode. I also have the instruction sheet that came with the driver. I am having a time grasping what the hell the modulation input does and how I should connect it. I only have 2 wires coming into the driver and...

    looking for flex drives

    That's why the word drive is plural meaning 2 or more. Ha!

    Buying Soldering Iron..

    For all else wondering I bougt a weller soldering station model # WESD51 a while back and it absolutely rocks. Worth every penny, that thing will solder pretty much anything.

    Ruby rod wanted

    WTF can you build with those parts? it looks like it will be huge!

    2.5w 445nm laser.

    In the test video I know it only hit 2513mw but I tested it before and it hit 2566mw and right before I boxed it up it hit 2540mw I am positive that I could of placed it closer to the sensor and focused it a bit more and cleared 2600mw.

    2.5w 445nm laser.

    FYI I made another host identical to this one and I ordered the 2 diods from DTR at the same time. The other diode is not tested but I am expecting it to lay down comparable numbers. Of corse you never know until you test it.

    2.5w 445nm laser.

    I really just like to tinker. I have access to all kind of large mills and lathes at work and a massive 8x16 cnc router not to mention every tool I the world for sheet metal. I built my own cnc router a while back a 24x 48 model. I have pics of that if anyone is interested. Otherwise I just have...

    2.5w 445nm laser.

    Hey I am in the same part of the world as you. Let me know if you ever want to bounce any idea off of each other and I have a lathe here for projects.

    The amazing M-140 445nm diode?

    The new owner of the laser I just sold with one of these m140 diodes is very happy with it. After final test it laid down 2566mw @1.8a and held there for a full 40 second test.

    When are you expecting more as I would like to pick up another m140 and g2 lens....

    looking for flex drives

    I am looking for good flex drives that can be used to get 1.8a of current. Are there any for sale from people here on the site as of right now? Thanks

    2.5w 445nm laser.

    At the very least it is a very bad example. I gave the wife a verbal lashing for getting my face on camera!

    2.5w 445nm laser.

    I do not think it is any secret that running these at 1.8a is kinda the limit between power and life for the diode. At the same time I think it is a fairly safe power to run them at and more so if you have a good diode. I was reading a thread here over the weekend that was talking about this...

    2.5w 445nm laser.

    I am pretty sure I was getting ready to end the run right at 40 seconds and the beam moved off of the sensor a bit. I ran it for a full minute before that run and it did not seem to taper off sharply for me. Only the 1-2 mw per few seconds. I am sure at some point it will taper off sharply I do...

    2.5w 445nm laser.

    Thanks man, This is not te last thing I am going to sell here so I need to keep my rep good. I really do not want to burn any bridges here. This web forum is no different than any of the other dozen that I frequent in that people will not take a bunch of crap off anyone.

    2.5w 445nm laser.

    Read down to my last response. I have them and was too stupid to put them on even when my wife who was taking the video had a pair on. I was too concerned with getting this video done that it slipped my mind I will make an honest effort to never let it happen again. I know the dangers which...

    2.5w 445nm laser.

    I have goggles, I forgot them and I had already got started on the test once I realized it.. ( I know its very stupid and I should of stopped) The coating on the thermopile is flat black and really reduces the glare and it is really not too bad looking at it.
