    Trying to build an insane 532 nm laser

    What a treacherous way to learn. I'm sorry you had to suffer that. He had a Chuck Norris touch.

    Worried 462nm might be "too" blue?

    Hap I want to bring the makeup of your current collection into this. I gather that your not after megawatts. I think an m462 driven at common power would be overwhelming. I see your question too blue regarding power more than color. Do I have this right?

    7W+ Survival Laser S4X Host w/NUBM44 diode and 4.5A SXD Tutorial

    Hey Brad. I suppose it could be done. I use 2 pin JST connectors on my builds that have the room. If you plan on expanding your collection take a look at the 510 module builds on the forum. I have one up you could search "XPL plug and play" or "510" in the search bar at the bottom of the page...

    Is simply shining a Class 3+ laser into the sky illegal?

    The possibility of a number of variables happening keep my outside lasing short and infrequent with the paranoia of a muskrat far from its borrow. Too many birds in the sky. Only takes one time. Plus I don't want the mosquitoes flying away with my laser.

    Generally the concesus is that 5mw is the safe zone for a presentation setting just based on the limited info in your request. I wouldn't use a 200mw greenie in a office sized presentation room. But a 200mw greenie would be a good starting point for daytime use per your example situation. Maybe...

    Eye hit with 100mW, 532nm, class III green laser.

    You guys are giving Wonderful advice.

    Jellyfish Lasers Are Revolutionizing Quantum Physics

    And thanks Accu for the neg rep. I really had to earn it. Please anytime it's just not working out for you and it's someone else's fault just drop me some neg rep and know it puts a smile on my face. :p Btw first neg rep.

    Thanks Bob it's a little pocket burner so I don't carry it around with me. :thanks:

    Eye hit with 100mW, 532nm, class III green laser.

    You'll be fine. In fact you'll probably do it again in the near future. You will be fine then as well. Trust me I'm an internet opthamologist. Also as your internet opthamologist I would suggest you lose the laser.

    Jellyfish Lasers Are Revolutionizing Quantum Physics

    A more robust ignore feature would remedy the "issue". That way the "issue" can look in the mirror without causing such a disruption. As long as this "issue" remains we will have annoying mole hills come up everywhere. It may not be moles it's starting to look like a prairie dog colony with...

    Sanwu Pocket Laser 445nm 500mw help with acceptable battery dimensions

    1w idk the 10440 is giviner all she's got there. Smallest built I've done yet. M140 nano drive 1.1a not that good with nail polish. Can't get a watt out of it.

    Build Thread: 505nm module into host

    Hey Paul are the acrylic lens your talking about the ones that ship from Jordan? I'll have to try those again but I remember there being that reflection only slightly but still there if you really want to see it. Also are you using the lens holder that also comes with the module or a different...

    Build Thread: 505nm module into host

    Haha well you have my info if you change your mind. I would suggest using the thermal grease but the SL heatsinks are really precisely bored out. 2 element lens and I'm sticking to it. Duty cycle idk I've run mine for 10 minutes without issue in an S4 host and another in a DTR v2 510 heatsink...

    Build Thread: 505nm module into host

    I'm really not sure what the hangup is. Its baffling me. If the board has wires on it already you could twist connect and heatshrink the joints. I think Paul said the thermal paste is optional in this instance. I offered to help cause I'm greedy and really enjoy building and the first light...

    Photobucket just deleted;

    We could band together and dump tons of data for them to hold onto. Upload, delete, reupload, automate it. Show them how pisses we are. I'm sure its already being done. This could be an example to imgur to give the people of the internet a fair warning when they get to this same fork in the road.

    Build Thread: 505nm module into host

    I would bet Rich already has what your looking for ready to go. I don't mind helping you out either. Literally 2 wires and a dab of thermal goop.

    Did I lose a piece of my laser optics?

    Get a pic of the other side of the lens.

    Golden laser?

    Did it require an hour long ceremony of fire and ice with an 18650 sacrifice? I have a cell that has a high IR that I keep around 3v charged. At around 40 or 50 degF I can get around 2 minutes of 120mw avg. I see three lines in the beam. A fully charged cell is too much. I should check the V...
