Anyone know if this driver is in "high" mode. If yes, why won't it drive a NUBM44-V2 above 3.5 watts? I'm powering it at just over 8 volts, and 5 amps on this setup with a 24v, 250w (10 amp) SOLA power supply..

What a sweet project! This guy just might have a bigger skill set than me. Heheh https://hackaday.com/2021/04/28/clever-gas-mixer-gets-just-the-right-blend-for-homebrew-laser-tubes/

Just wow. The science of this is WAAAY above my pay-grade, but amazing none the less! Before today, I had never heard the term chiral. So many subjects excite the mind, so little time to study them all...

At this price point, I gotta wonder. I am tempted to go for it though. https://lcnbair.myshopify.com/products/laser-rust-remover?fbclid=IwAR2S7SynbmbxdvCbvJxnJG04JbFOgpjsaJCIq-0bS-SyxN5fUMnsDXjj7zs

Thought this was interesting. Can you say multi-watt 532nm? https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/weapons/amp28916407/china-laser-crystals/

This Rolls-Royce system can deliver 300 kilowatts of power and 200 kilowatts of cooling, in a very small package. https://www.defensenews.com/industry/2019/05/10/rolls-royce-unveils-hybrid-power-system-for-laser-weapons/

Lithiums aren't going away for a good long time. Everyone's working on improving their power density, and no one wants to re-tool their factories just yet, I'm sure. https://www.androidauthority.com/solid-state-battery-978899/amp/

https://freebeacon.com/national-security/satellite-photos-show-chinese-anti-satellite-laser-base/amp/ Not sure what to make of this. I have to wonder how they get that this is a laser installation, unless they've actually seen them fire. Interesting installation none the less. -G

Does this diode need to be isolated from a case-neg host? It's in a module from Jordan. If yes, would the same apply for a case-pos host? I don't want to install this until I find out for sure. Thanks, -G

Just got this unit from Jordan. Anyone have any idea why it might be flashing? When I apply power (2-LiIon cells) It flashes at about 1.5-2 hZ. Was hoping someone here had an idea before I go to Jordan. I know he's busy. Thanks, G

...and I must say, it came out rather well! I've got to pull the barrel one last time for a final powder coat, but other than that...IT LIVES! This shot was only 3/8 oz. of powder, that's as loud as I dare go in the back yard. I have taken it out to the country, and gotten it up to 1 oz. It...
