Re: GB: PL450B diodes pressed into modules, 39$ each cool, I will add the bare diodes option as soon as I get a new price quote from the supplier. And if no one voices a desire for the brass o-like modules, then that option will go away entirely. Don't forget to put your name and numbers in...

Re: GB: PL450B diodes pressed into modules, 39$ each I'd love to know what other 3.8mm diodes you know of (and have access to) Totally gnarly pics Kent :kewlpics: If you feel like having mercy on your lungs though :whistle: just boil a couple drops of glycerin next time ;)

Re: GB: PL450B diodes pressed into modules, 39$ each AnthoT, I've told you off once before for being overly generous :tsk: don't make me do it again :p

Re: GB: PL450B diodes pressed into modules, 39$ each I hope so too :) Any decrease in price which I manage to secure from the supplier will be immediately reflected in the OP and spreadsheet. Though naturally, I gotta be careful with making changes to those, as only downward modifications will...

Re: GB: PL450B diodes pressed into modules, 39$ each I cc'd you on my letter to the supplier, did you see it? Awesome to know that they have the bare diodes, it seems most people here prefer it like that; once I have a price on them I'll add an option to the OP :)

Re: GB: PL450B diodes pressed into modules, 39$ each Yes, AnthoT confirmed that they really are in an o-like module. I can't say what the purpose of it is, I would personally prefer to get the diode bare too; but at this time, this how the offer is... (sans driver) I am trying to find out...

This GB is now closed. Thanks to all participants of the first round. A new GB will be announced soon :yh: This GB is for the Osram PL450B 80mW Single Mode diode and for the 638nm Mits.500mW Multi-Mode diode. Prices for round2 will be 38$ per unit for the PL450B & 76$ per unit for the...

interest in Osram LDs - preliminary non-commiting spreadsheet this is just so I can see a running total of where we stand, please add your country of residence. PM if you have trouble editing it

I didn't say don't be nice to people here. I mostly meant: don't fold over for the manufacturer; it should be they who pay for the shipping of the replacement screws, not you; and certainly not $120(!) As I see it, the only extra expense you should bear is the 10 extra heatsinks because the...

Thanks :D Thermal adhesive is certainly better, but if you're planning a reversible build then it's set-screw + thermal grease of course. p.s. I forgot to add this rant before my previous post: /squeaky high pitched voice/ Stop being so overly nice to everyone at your own expense, you... you...

Anyone willing to do the following can save Anthony $5 for shipping you a tiny piece of metal and save himself the trouble of worrying if he's got enough set screws. Introducing: the Make yir-own set-screw hack - I just did this; it took me about five minutes: Git yer donor bolt out of the 'ole...

:eek: $120 for shipping :wtf: are they developing a teleporter to deliver those screws to you? that's a good idea blue led, thanks :) I didn't quite understand what's wrong with the current frankenscrews, are they too long or are they just missing a notch for the flat-head screwdriver? either...

Thanks :) I don't think you'd be out of order politely asking anyone whose shipping was underquoted to help you recoup part of that $221 loss; from what I've seen so far, this is a very supportive forum and we don't want to see people punished for hosting excellent GBs... As for your...

Just making sure you understood: I'm getting the SmallSun host for the golden SH032 heatsink that I ordered from ya, so you should send me one of the larger "wrong" ones as it is (unsanded); just make sure I get a set screw in there please :thanks: Also, I don't know if this is the case with my...

Re: PERMANENT THREAD: Ebay& other internet FINDS of interest- read all the OP please Get it - sell 30 of the diodes at $30 a pop - present your mom with the net $150 profit - enjoy your remaining two diodes - everybody wins! :D

Awesome! :beer: I keep going back and checking your site twice daily; you've been putting those 5mw 635 diodes on and off that page for a week now, but I could swear that you didn't have all those heatsinks there earlier today :D Edit(s): Do you have focus adapters or an AtMa-boost driver for...

Perhaps you don't need to worry too much about ordering too many Anthony; some people (like myself), who didn't make it in time to get into this fantastic GB, would be glad to pay for surpluses that you may have. I'm liking that Small-Sun host too, so I'd be just as glad to get one of the...

Found the model, PMd you about it. How about you, found anything good on metal/air interfaces? I'm a fellow human (who happens to also be a Yid :p). What were you doing, two years back, in our "City of Science and Orchards"?

Our intuitions are similar, and it's exactly that "micro-leveled convection" of colliding molecules that I'm pondering :thinking: and hoping we can find a readable article about :) Anyway, I'll search for one, and try to find where I left that model (it's a combined analytical/numerical...

The 'inverse sum of inverses' coefficient (which is the same as division by the straight sum of thermal resistivities) in solid|solid interface transmission rates is in line with my own findings. I was struggling with a somewhat dissimilar problem a couple years back for a calculation of...
