Hi guys,
A few days ago I received one of these 50mW lasers from AixiZ along with one of their 15mW lasers. Upon arrival, I was a bit worried when I noticed the 50mW laser was labeled as "G20." I did not have a power cord to spare so I only tested the 15mW laser, which works great at about 25mW...
Hi SenKat,
I haven't received my FusionDrives yet, either. I'm sorry to see that some people are causing you so much grief over this ordeal.
Let me know if you need extra funds for postage.
Thanks so much for helping to bring this group buy to a close! :)
Edit: SenKat, if you have a few more...
Re: Lava Micro FlexDrive Driver (lavadrive2) fits
drlava,
Just wanting to let you know that I received my FlexDrive in excellent condition. Thanks again!
kdubbz - I believe the driver ground is the same as the diode ground, so the driver stays grounded through the diode. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. :P
Kenom - I received my barrel and extras today. Thanks for all the hard work, it was well worth it! ;)
I picked up a pump assembly from a DealExtreme laser from MarioMaster. He was quick to respond to my messages, and he mailed the module out the day after payment. It arrived today in excellent condition, and works flawlessly.
I believe you'll need a pair of anamorphic prisms. They are usually pretty pricey. However, I think Laser Ben was selling some Melles Griot modules with a pair of anamorphic prisms for $30-50, IIRC. I'm pretty sure that he sold them all, though.
Actually, someone here (I believe it was Rhith) has reported their DX 5mW reading an average of 10-15mW of green and a few milliwatts of IR.
AtlasNova sells a solid Class II greenie for $63.90 shipped. I think that's probably a bit of out of your price range though.
In the end, I guess the...
Hi mrblack927,
Are you using the AixiZ housing with an acrylic lens or the glass lens? The acrylic lens is encased in black plastic, and the glass lens assembly is encased in metal. If you want good divergence from the acrylic lens, you'll need to widen the input window.

xarylx,
I too had a hard time imagining the color. I looked around on Google and found a link to an eBay auction for an anodizing kit. It had a picture of an aluminum bead that looks similar in color (at least with my display's color calibration) to the color Kenom reffered to. Here is the...
Thanks, Greg! Upon closer inspection I would say that they are identical. On their current eBay listing for a 25mW Blu-Ray module it shows the heatsink without the sticker on the top, and the screw holes are in the exact same places.
Marconi has said that they buy the heatsinks in bulk, so...
Very Nice work, k-9!
Yes, I was going to ask the same question - they look very similar to the MaXYZmodules heatsinks. I would love to know where to get ahold of them.

Daedal,
I received my package today as well. That sure was a lot of bubble wrap for such a small box. ;D
The extra acrylic collimator was a nice surprise. ;)
Thanks a lot!
Re: DONE *** BluRays again ;) *** DONE
Hey Daedal,
Sorry to hear about the blown diodes. It's a shame that the AixiZ modules are going downhill. I wonder if the quality is decreasing because the manufacturer is having to make much more than usual.
If that's the case, chances are high that...
Great news, Kenom!
I've been lurking this thread for a while. I'm thinking about getting one or two barrels, but I may wait to see those drafts. I hope it won't be too late to hop aboard by then. :-?
