So I have two lasers for sale today. Neither laser has been used much and are from builds a while back, but still work perfectly =). Both lasers are sold as-is as I am getting out of the hobby, but anyone who has bought off of me knows I keep my things is really good condition. Both of these...
Price Drop: Phobos 520nm Left - Great Host !!!
Time for some more sales!
I am selling off a fair portion of my laser collection due to the fact that I purchased a home a few months ago and do not have the time (or the money) to continue the hobby. The lasers below that I am selling have not...
As stated in the title, the laser for sale is a 445nm diode in a Saik-305 Host. This laser has never been used, built to sell. I have sold other lasers in this host because it is one of my favorite hosts. It is nice and heavy, has a large battery capacity, and overall feels very solid. I am...
So I have run into this driver problem more than once, and its really starting to bug me.
When I build high powered lasers, generally I prefer an X-Drive, but as we all know they aren't really possible to find (please let me know if you have a source!).
Anyways I was messing around with two...
Hello everyone,
So I have read many posts, and been here for a few months, but I've run into a problem. I need someone to LPM my laser for me and as suggested by the forum, I first went to the LPM list. I have probably contact 7 or 8 people total over the past month or so, but I haven't had any...
Another laser for sale, this one is going to be a steal for anyone. Regardless of which lens you pick for host I will be losing money either way by selling this, but need to clear some lasers and generate some income to get me through this semester. The laser up for sale probably has a total...
Hello everyone,
So I have two more lasers up for sale! I am selling two very small lasers built by myself in modified B50 hosts (green rubber O-rings for looks and to prevent rolling). I will list the details below, but one laser is a 271mW 660nm (red), while the other is a 124mW 405nm...
Another laser to sell…
This one is not very powered, but one of the more rare laser diodes out there. This laser is brand new, used only to thoroughly test the build. The components I used are:
Osram PL520 520nm Diode in Copper Module
X-Drive set at 290 mA
Trustfire A8 Host
Three Element...
So I'm planning to do a few builds, and I am in need of some drivers. I purchased what I could from CajunLasers closing out, but now I am stuck. I also am sending messages to both the makers of the X-Drive and the BlitzBuck. Below is my list of lasers that I am building, and the type of drivers...
Time to buy some books for another class, so I have one of my lasers to sell! I am selling this laser for very little profit, but is a great deal for such an awesome laser.
The laser has probably been used for a period of less than 5 minutes; I enjoy the build more than anything.
The laser...
So I have searched the forums to solve this mystery but I haven't found any explanations.
I have a build using a Mits 500 diode, with the current set at around 1025mA. Using a G2 lens, I get an output of roughly 730mW. This seems average for the diode from what I'm reading.
So here is where...
Hey everyone, here’s another build I deemed review worthy because I like it so much:
Since I had a low powered 450nm diode lying around, and been thinking of doing a fairly small build, I decided to order some supplies and go at it.
What I used for this build was:
Stainless Steel CR2 kit from...
Hey there,
So I am trying to clear up a little bit of space, and I have four recently built lasers that I am listing for sale. Most of these lasers are being sold for very little if any profit since my main objective here is to clear up some space. All of these lasers have been used for no more...
I have had this laser for a while, but decided to re-build it after doing some research on the diode. Here is what I used for the build:
Mitsubishi 500mW 638nm diode (from DTR)
SolarForce L2P Host with G-2 Lens (from Jayrob)
FlexDrive V5
1x18650 battery
I initially did this about a month or so...
So I decided to do my first “usual build”, and I chose the Osram PL520 diode. Although it is a fairly low power diode, I chose a neat looking host for the job. The host I chose was the Trustfire A8 host, purchased from CajunLasers. I decided to power the diode with a X-Drive powered at 290mA...
One quick question...
I do know that IMR batteries are for high drain devices... 1.6A+, and I was thinking about purchasing some. I have one 445 running on 3x 14500's (1.65A current) and a Spartan 1W running on 2x 3.0V tenergy lifep04's. do either of these warrant running IMR batreries ? I...
Hello everyone...
So although this is a little bit of a "late" introduction since I have posted a few times and been a member for a few months, I finally got around to it.
A little about me, I'm a sort of a non-traditional college student (a little older) from just south of Pittsburgh, I...
So although I have done a few builds now, and have had this one completed for a bit, I decided to post a little review.
I decided I wanted a do a powerful blue build, since the only one I currently have is a 1W Spartan, and of course I didn't build myself. After choosing the host, which took a...
Hey all,
So I have a question for you, I am working on a build using a Trustfire A8 host, plan on using a PL520 diode, and an Xdrive. I spent quite a bit of time with this build as the host seems to be kind of tricky but mounted the contact board, thermally glued the X-drive inside of the host...
So I have two main questions about a build I did today, but need a little help. I built a laser with a PHR-805T 405nm diode and once complete I can't get my laser to focus. I screw in the acrylic lens (what i believe is acrylic, pics below) to try to focus to infinity, but even all the way in I...
