Coworker wants to get into the laser building game, I'm too lazy ATM to
track down all the components separately, anyone have/know of any 445 nm
JAD kits for sale, any style is fine, just something easy to slap together
for a first timer. Already has eye protection BTW. ;)
As always, Thanks.
Are they in the 5.6 mm form? Kind of embarrassed
but this is news to me, I thought the lpc series was
it for single mode 650 200+ mW besides the newer
3.8 mm diodes. Links?
It was a good deal I suppose, didn't need all the extra stuff though, I have too much
extra stuff.
:beer:
STILL looking btw, sorry I didn't respond to your PM infinitus, but I'm gonna hold off on the WL.
Thanks for your offer though.
I sold an WL E3 that I put an lpc-826 in for $100 IIRC, it was doing about 300 mW
and was in mint condition.

NOTE: to whoever has that thing, I would like to buy it back lol ;)
Re: FS:Wicked lasers elite E3 500mw green!
I had a very similar laser, the E3 200 mW, same finish on the host and all. It
did about 110 mW at very best. I believe this was early 2011 and I paid $89.99
to WL for it. Several weeks later the price of that model jumped to $149.99 IIRC.
My laser...
I know, it's ugly, but this is my plan so far, any suggestions welcome. I have a pot like the ones poorly depicted above on a 445 labby unit and it works quite well, I can adjust the power between 80mW-1W with suitable precision.
I estimate I should be able to get 500-600 mW of pink ;)
Thanks for all of the input guys, and the pics Hak! Definitely going the dichro route
from DTR as I need some other stuff from him as well. I'm working on a schematic
while goldbricking at work :eg: (using MS paint lol), I'll update when I'm done
:beer:
Thanks for the links, I'm looking to combine a 660 nm and 405 nm beam with a single
cube, I'm guessing that if I buy a PBS coated for 660 nm, I will just have to deal with
reduced transmission of the 405 nm? Any thoughts?
EDIT: After some snooping I think I'm just going to go with a dichro...
Any recommendations on where to find a PBS for the 400-700 nm range?
I see some PBSers listed on fleebay, but they specificy 600nm-IR. I'm
hoping to score one at ~$50 to stay within budget on my next build.
PINK! :p
Saw your krypton for sale before ;) The size and the safety switch are kind of
off-putting though, I'll keep it in mind though pending other offers. I really like the O-like
crown lasers, but I'm reluctant to order from them these days.
