I just received the m140 1W 445nm W/flexdrive, the arrival time was not bad. However, before I plug the laser into the build, I gotta ask, the flexdrive IS preset to the right current, right?
Dude, I ordered something from DX and it came in DOA (dead on arrival) , they made it impossible to return the item, so eventually I gave up. $40 wasted. :(
Im using that same build basically, except i am trying to run it on 4 aa (recharge) and i am barely getting any light at all, even with the pot turned up high.
I have a similar situation with the same thing. I recently got the lpc815 diode along with a rkcstr driver. I placed the components on a heat sink while soldering and then placed a 9v battery in to test and not much happened. I then tried 4aa's. It barely produced any light whatsoever so i...
I have the same laser diode and also have some questions about running it. I want run this off of 3aaa batteries or 1 or 2 cr123a batteries. I am very limited on space, and I can't use AA's because they won't fit well in the compact host I want to use. Also I am on a budget and I plan on using...
