mine arrived. Thanks Glutton!

Re: Holy @#$%... $120 488nm diode!! Well played sir! Definitely in for at least 3. +rep

I have an M140 laser that uses a 5 mode led driver that allows 3 outputs as well as stove and sos, there are also 3 mode ones that just have low middle and high. There is a link to it in my sit.

A new angle on controlling light | MIT News This article explains a new system of passing/ reflecting light like a dichro or pbs, only it's based on the beams direction, not wavelength or polarization.

sweet! The first of my "532"s i put through my grating has 3 lines from a cold start 2 lines at 532+ the 3rd faint one was much more on the yellow side than my 543 HeNe. Once it warms up it is 532 only.

Bring a tear to my eye! Please elaborate on 500nm!

Fair enough. I used "application" incorrectly.:can: From the post i figured he was trying to achieve power density in a line. I thought a laser would be his best option compared to other light sources available.

This is one of those rare situations where our answer is that a laser is best for this application. Never don't use a laser when you should :D We usually get questions like, "Can i light a cigarette with a laser?" The answer is yes, but a lighter would work better and be safer.

My condolences :cryyy:

I'm interested in one of these R+G. Also, are you selling PL520's by their lonesome michael? I would be interested in a few.

I just have to chime in. Are you sure its not your batteries or possibly the driver? Low current to the diode can also cause individual lines to wink out. DTR even stated that lack of current can cause this effect. Its just always good to double check everything before you go for a whole...

Your camera is more sensitive to 405nm light than your eyes. Anyone who has taken pictures of 405 can attest that only some cameras are able to show laser color properly, especially when it comes to ones at the edge of the visible spectrum. DPSS lasers are lasers that contain IR as it is...

? explain.

make that 6 :D

I would just like to chime in that these diodes are awesome, nice and clean and work perfectly. I think i got a lucky a140. Powered it up just now and am getting 1.5W+ out of a blitzbuck at a little over an amp. +rep AB

Re: ~700mW 405nm violet laser & new SXD adj 5A & microboost driver Is the microdrive still for sale?

it's always satisfying to see the forum working the way it's supposed to! well played everyone

Am I the only one who thinks 7watts in a hand held is just ridiculous? I just built my first 44 build and holy smokes. Instant fire? Gee whiz. Gonna go take a long vacation back into single modes for a while... Maybe check out that new 2.6W 465nm diode Edit: @ Cowboy: I'm aware the 465nm is...
