Your right. I am not trained, nor do I know the facts. Please ignore my previous posts.

Here you go. This is the facet facing the IR pump diode. It is a dealextreme.com 200mW module that I pot moded too far. You can clearly see the carnage. Considering the rating, these crystal sets are very small. I blew a 100mW module the other night due to a slip with the meter probe. The IR...

I just ordered a MGL-III-532-300 300mW 532nm dual TEC lab module with 30k analog modulation from CNI. I can't wait! My projector build is slowly coming along, when I find the time to spare. Both crystals and pump diode have their own TEC. http://www.cnilaser.com/PDF/MGL-III-532.pdf I went with...

I can try a macro shot of a burnt crystal facet if your interested. The coating is clearly burnt.

What you are seeing is normal, there is a small amount of red from the IR led passing through. It is worse with cheaper modules. If your unlucky enough to damage your cystals then all you will see is this dim red light....

I also believe the facet facing the pump diode can burn, I have seen this 1st hand from over-clocking (pot modding)... Just don't do it with cheap modules...

Re: FS: Kenometer USB Laser Power Meter - $197.50 shipped How much shipped to Australia? Cheers. Wayne aka dnar.

I went to Cognito once for a holiday, nice place.

I PM'd Mario about his meter last night, he is waiting on zeroing pots from China. He has no idea when they are expected. My guess? Soon. I am keen also, not because it is cheep, neither Jerry or Kenom respond to my purchase inquiries and I need an LPM now. Strange.

Just wait until that company that begins with the letter following B finds out their diodes where responsible... Dear Earthlings, We mean you no harm.... Mary, PR for spaceship K@51O

I use an old hair dryer my wife was going to throw out. I added a focusing nozzle to it and on high heat it works a treat.

Don't get me wrong, the BS has subsided but at the cost of blandness. Don't you notice the lack of good quality posts and threads? From what I can see, this forum has lost the best members, members that had a lot to give and some that added spice. Nothing much of value for me here in the past...

2 rows of pins, the left hand on top and bottom row are a switch. Same for each switch across. They only handle 100-500mA depending on brand and model.

Some pics running. I have a lot more splash with this build for some reason, the lens is clean...

I mate of mine has caught the coherent bug since I gave him a 100mW 532 DPSS module and a 650 module to play with. He wanted to try a 445nm 1W diode too so I build him a little programmable power lab module. Just finished it tonight. I used the old LM317 driver with DIP switch programmable...

Hi Mate, I am hoping for 1000-1200mW red to balance out a 300mW 532 and 445 that I will dial back to suit the final RG mix. I have ordered a bunch of flexmounts from Dave at PL, plus 4 of p1tbulls cubes. I also have a bunch of FS mirrors so plan on trying both knife edging and cube combining...

Cool. I ordered a bunch of 815 sleds and AR glass lens from him yesterday. I am doing a quad 650 build.

Dave, thanks for the two little blue birds! Well packaged, landed safely, awesome seller.

I am after P3's quickly, how soon do you think we can get a GB rolling?
