Hi everyone! Use to be a fairly active member here a few years back! Unfortunately my degree at university seem to put this hobby on the back burners for quite a while! Happy to be back and hopefully budget prevailing get a build underway after getting up to date with everything. Also with the...

Hi, I've been having problems with some NJG18's I have, I can't for the life of me seem to set the current on them with out having problems. I put together a 6A universal testload using a 0.1ohm 10W resistor (keep voltage drop low), 3.1k resistor in parallel to drain the drivers caps, then the...

Hi guys, thought it would be interesting to see everyones preferred cures for the morning after a night of heavy drinking. I was out last night and consumed a little too much jagermeister, and am now paying for it with the effects still luming at 10pm the following evening :banghead...

Hi, unfortunately recently my GPU decided to give up in my PC so I've got to find funds from somewhere to buy a new one, so I've decided to sell two of my lasers. These lasers are both brilliant lasers, they have only ever been lightly used and when not out they're kept in a padded pelican box...

Wicked lasers just released there "dual" spyder series, for twice the blinding ability of the previous series! Whilst it does look cool, releasing this for sale to anyone is just stupidly irresponsible, and Lucas is gonna have a hell of a time suing them for actually trying to make it look like...

Just thought some people might benifit from this web page I came across today and a youtube video, I've been having a problem setting my drivers current because of the batterys loosing voltage before I can set the current, and I needed to find a way of getting a constant 4.2V, and this looks...

Hi guys, I posted a thread a few days ago with a few pictures of my newely arrived host/diode and bits, and now have a some pics of it being put together + a build log, I decided to call it bullet, but originally I had planned it too look something a bit like a bullet :D...

Got a package delivered today, some new gear for a build I've had planned for a while! The build is based around a design I had for a host, which was sent in the form of a crude sketch to Ehgemus who turned it into a workable design with great skill and an amazing finish, looks much better than...

Looking for a little advice :) My family is considering a move from the UK to Greenville in texas, due to a job opportunity, and I know there a few people here on the forum that live in Texas, just wandering if anyone knew what the place was like? I checked it out on Google maps street view and...

Hi, Looking to buy a suitable driver for a 445nm build, need it to put out about 1.3A with a 18650 battery. I can't seem to find any drivers on any of the common hobby stores as they're all out of stock, if someone knows of somewhere where I can purchase them or if they're selling one let me...

Hi guys, Just setup a free games site, uploaded a few of my favourite online games on there for people to play. If your bored and wanna kill some time head over and have some fun :) JuicyGames - Homepage hope you enjoy it, and I hope it's still alright to link to it on the forums if not just...

Hi people, Looking to sell my Jayrob MXDL laser with PHR@110mA using a rckstr driver, it's been looked after VERY well, stays inside a protected box most of the time and gets used very little. Just to add, replacing the PHR module would be easy, I had the host setup so there's just two wires...

Just head over to PL for an occasional visit and they have a new cool chat system installed. I know we tried one of the public group chats on the home page over here but had to get rid of it because it was to resource intensive or something, but I think that the Facebook style chat system could...

Hi, Time has come to sell my argon laser, it's too big to keep in my room and I don't get to use it as much as I like so I'd like to sell it on to someone who will use it more than me :) I'm looking to get £70 for it, (fair price?) It's operating current is 7-7.5A for long life but you can...

Well finally got my dorcy 1W 445nm build up and running after being hostless for a while. The diode is amazing, tears through anything and the colour looks fantastic :san: It runs on a 3.6V 1300mAh rechargeable, microboost driver set at 1A and a dark horse purple anodized full body heatsink...

Hi, Looking to buy an old style dorcy jr. since the new style I purchased in a GB a while ago won't fit my old style anodized heatsink. Does anyone have an old style (with long head) I can buy of them? Also if anyone wants a new style I have one I want to get rid off. Cheers.

Had a fantastic transaction with Morgan, paid Monday morning, arrived on Tuesday (Today)! I ordered a microboost with a pre-set current for the 445nm build, and an aixiz module. He goes out of his way to be extremely helpful, and generally a really nice guy to deal with, I would recommend him...

Don't think I have posted this yet, but Wicked must be flooded with views and orders, the new 445nm laser was just posted on the homepage of the Gizmodo gadget website. The good news is that they seem to emphasize quite a bit on the safety, good move on WL's behalf posting the safety issues in...

This has been brought up before, I'd just like to post it again with a little more info. Tapatalk is a great little app and time saver for iPod touch and iPhone that converts any VB forum into a more easy to use iphone style forum, basically there's a free version of the app and one that costs...

I'm looking for a 5" monitor that I can basically strip down too the bare LCD and still be able to utilise the VGA connection. I've look everywhere to find one with no luck, I've looked at trying too utilise the PSP OEM monitor and connect a VGA cable up-to it's pin out but it would require a...
