I'm making a box build with the driver set at 480mA which I was told would give me about a 325mW output. I had it all connected and the diode turns on and is not very bright (which is expected for a blue). However, even when focused to a small point, it does not burn. It doesn't even get black...

I'm deciding whether or not to do an LPC-826 or PHR805T build. I read that with the way I'd like to do it, the LPC-826 build would push out about 245mW and the PHR805T would push out around 120mW. Since violet is the better color for burning, I'm conflicted because I'm not sure how to compare...

I would like to make a ~300-350mW 455 laser. I've read tutorials and stuff and they are pretty much all for 1w+ lasers. I do not wish to make a laser with this sort of power. I have looked for diodes and they all seem to be used for such powerful builds or are too big or something. I need a 5.6...

I am deciding between a 445nm laser and a 405nm laser. I know 405nm is better, but just how much better would it be at burning? For example. which would burn better? A 300mW 445 or a 200mW 405? I am trying to decide which of these is best for burning without being powerful enough to hurt...

Note: This has been sold! I am looking to sell my 200mW 650nm red laser. It is focusable, waterproof, and sturdy. It only has a total use time of about 1-2 hours and is in 100% perfect condition. Price: $75, free shipping. I will also include two pairs of T-Rex brand 650nm laser safety...

I would like to resell my 200mW red laser in the US. I have an understanding of the laws in the US but I want to be sure. This is my laser. As shown, the laser is properly labeled. The button is maintained, not momentary. I'm not sure if it matters, but the beam is focus-able all the way...

I ordered a 200mW red laser from Lazerer: LZCB - 650nm 200mW Water Proof Red Laser Pointer Since it is Lazerer, it will probably be over-powered. I ordered these: Red 650nm 660nm Laser Protection Goggles Safety Glasses | eBay I did not know until now that they're here as well: Red 650nm 660nm...

I completely understand the importance of laser safety and safety goggles/glasses. I bought these...

I would like to make my first burning laser and I have been trying to find an easy first build. I read that the Mini Mag build is kinda hard and so is the Star Trek phaser mod... Any ideas for an easy first build?

I have a standard twist AA black mini maglite. I also plan on buying an LPC-826 diode. Is there any way I can make a basic LM317 and fit inside the flash light? Also, what could I use as a heatsink? I also have Arctic Silver 5 thermal compound left over from my computer if that helps. Any help...

I want to make a Kipkay Star Trek phaser but with a LPC-826 diode instead from here LPC-826 laser diode 650-660nm 250-300mW [M0023] - $12.99 : Modwerx Shop How different is it? As far as resistors/drivers go, he used a 150 ohm resistor and not a driver with a 9v. I want to use a 9v like him for...

I am pretty sire it would work, but would this drive here Amazon.com: Liteon 24X DVDrw Sata Retail: Electronics work as a burning laser? I just want to be sure. How powerful would it be?

My friend took apart his laptop's DVD burner drive and gave me this. I know it's blurry but please help. Are either of those two things pointed at the focusing blocks the red diode? Is this usable at all for a burning laser?

My friend gave me his broken XBox 360 slim to do what I want with. I know an XBox 360 HD DVD diode will burn, but what about an XBox 360 Slim diode? How powerful would it be?

In am making a 200-250mw burning laser exactly like Kipkay's laser flashlight hack. I want to build a driver to keep the diode alive for more frequent use but what exactly what parts do I need? I have seen lists and guides but they are all different. Can it all fit inside the flashlight?
