Neither the O-like or the Arcane specify the transverse mode or divergence... Which leads me to think they suck from a beam quality perspective. Also, I don't know who designed the heatsinks, but they definitely don't understand even the basics of heat transfer. Hopefully the CNI prices will be...

CNI has said they can provide the following with or without a host enclosure: Green (532nm) High-Power (1W) Hand-Held (26mm dia laser module) Single-Mode (TEM00), Round, Gaussian beam profile Low Divergence (full angle, <1.5mrad) Proven/Reliable Diode/Power-Supply (5000hrs) Duty-Cycle (Will...

If you've had a difficult time with force-fits, you might want to consider shrink fits. You can put the outer component in an oven (~500F) so it expands radially, and the inner component in liquid nitrogen (-321F) so is contracts radially. Depending on the coefficients of thermal expansion for...

Thanks for the reply. It looks like the only green, cylindrical, non-mounted diodes cnilaser.com has are 800mw max. Are you saying that they'll sell higher-power modules without the rectangular enclosure if I ask? Any idea on price? What about the power supply board for the higher power diodes...

Alex, Thank you very much for the reply. I did notice those before I posted the thread, but I noticed that the NDG7475 you specified is Multi-Mode and relatively high-divergence. I was really hoping to get high-power (>1W) AND high beam quality (low-divergence / TEM00 Gaussian beam profile)...

I made the mistake of blowing over $600 at the WickedLasers end-of-the-world sale and I'm now requesting a full-refund because it's been nearly 6 months since I placed my order and haven't received anything more than bullshyt excuses from their anti-customer service department. :mad: So, I now...
