    Making a DIY multi LED - Work light etc.,

    So I have decided, my first "assembly" will be a flashlight. I am thinking of Cree XML-U6 or similar running 3A. This costs around 8$ on dx.com Along with that I am wondering which host I should use and which driver which will fit into the driver pill of the host. The problem with DX is that a...

    Making a DIY multi LED - Work light etc.,

    Great! Similar to this. I was planning to have it powered by the vehicle 12V supply I guess, I can stick the cree XML-T6 type of high power LED on a aluminium plate, and stick the drivers to the reverse side. Enclose it in a simple fog lamp housing, and I am good to go!

    FEELER: 1W+ Rifle like 445nm Blue laser from aliexpress

    There are many aliexpress sellers who sell just the tip set for 5-10$ depending upon number and type. Cap 6B01, a cap showing six effects, 100 pieces / lot, a rotatable cap, six beam shapes, diffraction grating, laser pointer-in Laser Pointers from Office & School Supplies on Aliexpress.com...

    Making a DIY multi LED - Work light etc.,

    Yes, I am thinking of using 4 LEDs, and using 2 drivers(Each driver driving 2 LEDs). Found a 5-18V driver on dx.com which can drive three LEDs, so 2 should be okay. Will also buy acheap housing. Since there is no reflector, I presume this is going to be a proper Flood light!

    Making a DIY multi LED - Work light etc.,

    Trawling through the search threads on the forum, I am now fairly confident of assembling a laser using a DTR module, a driver and a host from dealextreme. However, even though I have searched LPF and a lot of other forums, I am a little confused about how to make LED flashlights. Firstly the...

    Post your random pics!

    I don't think its a lunar ranging experiment. this is a astronomical laser to create a laser guide star http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_guide_star

    Operating temperatures of Diodes and DPSS

    While going through the forum threads, its become clear that green DPSS modules do not function well at low temperatures. What about diodes(MT140 etc.,) Is there some kind of chart of temperature vs output. That said, at -20 degree C, your duty cycle should increase since the diode will have a...

    Approximating laser power without LPM - A scientific way

    Cypaagon I just realized that heat capacity of copper is much lower. So temperature of copper can be increased with application of much lower energy. Therefore even 1W laser can be measured to a reasonable accuracy. In reality my experiment may be totally crap outside the lab. However, why not...

    Common battery sizes and types - A guide

    Yes, there are a lot more. But I deliberatly ingnored those which are not used in flashlights and lasers and consumer electronics. So I covered Zinc Carbon, Alkaline and Lithium for non rechargeables. What I missed out is this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-volt_battery -> The Transistor...

    Approximating laser power without LPM - A scientific way

    It better be sound. After all the entire system of Thermo-Mechanical engineering has its basis in what Mr. Joule did! Mechanical Work <=> Heat Heat <=> Work The basis of all engines, heat pumps, exchangers and what not. Heck the Cg of water of a value of 4182 was calculated using this method...
