On the contrary, I've used Eagle Pair for many years and they have protected my eyes just like they are designed to do. There are more expensive pairs out there of course; if you can swing it, go for it!

Wow that looks badass... just have no idea what the hell I'm looking at lmao!

Son of a gun! I just received my NDG700 today and haven't built it just yet. I happened to hop on to DTR's page and OF COURSE the NDG 7475 is in stock now!! OMG lol.. if only I would have waited a couple more days. I'm so tempted to order the 7475 now.. just not sure what the hell I'm going to...

Well I’ve officially decided. I ordered the NDG700 with G8 lens and will be pushing it at 1.5A which should net roughly 800mw. Not quite the 1 watt mark but I have no problem trading peak power for longer duty cycle. My NDB7875 (2.4w) is currently in a SL stainless host and it heats up too fast...

When it comes to buying diodes DTR is an easy choice, always a good experience. Are there any other reputable places to order diodes from? For instance, they are out of stock of the big boy 7W blue diodes and they don't know if/when they'll get more. If someone wanted to get that diode do they...

In the past I always just used the simple 3 element lenses. When I recently built my 2.5w blue, I ordered it with the G8 lens and I'm very happy with it! Beam quality seems great and of course she burns like a motha =D

Thanks Rich. The NDG700 isn’t an open can, it’s “sealed” right? Between the two diodes which would you choose?

Thanks for the input! Got me looking a little closer at the NUG03. When purchasing from DTR, I have the option of getting it with the stock lens but my question is: if I order it with the G8 lens for instance, will it come decanned? Or will it arrive with the gball in tact with a G8 on top of that?

Hi guys. I completed my NDB7875 today and it’s a beast. My previous blue build was with an M140 and was maybe 1.2 watts whereas this one is likely around 2.4 watts.. I’ve never been able to set things on fire before lol! Needless to say I’ve got the laser bug bad now. I want to go for a near 1...

Interesting. I’m using a survival laser pill/driver so touching the output caps isn’t an option sadly 🤔

I proceeded to build my 405nm laser and it works perfect. I'm not sure if it's the proper way to do it but I just touched the two driver wires together in hopes it would get rid of any built up charge.

Hi guys, After about a 5 year hiatus I've dusted off some of my old builds and have the laser bug once again lol. I have some new parts on the way but I also have components from when I built my lasers years ago. I've searched up and down but for some reason I can't find an answer to my...

On a whim I decided to check out they're website this morning and presto, no more 50mw modules. No surprise to me! Another note, they're 5mw pens although badass are marked "DealExtreme.."

How much are you getting from your pl520?

I'll probably keep messing with them But yeah im down spending Money on China modules. How so companies like laser glow, etc achieve 500mw+ of green?

It was very small increments as recommended by blord. They just seemed to cut in and out from 5-30mw.. Even when lowering the pot

Are those the crystals? I didn't even get a chance to see it without the crystals on :( it would be infrared no?

Honestly only one of them did I pot mod because it was noticable lower than the other two. The $5 pen is at least as bright as one of these.. While they worked. Lesson learned. At Least I got a couple nice flashlights and pen lasers that seem in the 50mw range. Not a complete loss. All three...

Just got 3 of these and they are a joke. Low quality, all three of them have either died or reduced to 5 mw. Touch that pot and youll have a number of problems. 30 bucks down the drain. Max you'll see is most likely under 30 and it isn't going to last long. The 5 dollar Pens I got from them are...

Rawr?
