Yeaahhh, I'm kinda bummed because unless it comes tomorrow, I basically just wasted $250. Which is fine because I can still use them in December and now I wont be waiting for them. Not what I hoped a month and a half ago, but I could have seen it coming. Ya never know, it could come tomorrow
It's not. If it's what I think it is, it's also very important that the compound is an electrical insulator. Which somewhat limits its effectiveness as a thermal conductor.
^lol pi r squared
And thanks for your offer, Lifetime, but I have already gotten some myself :)
And sorry, I guess that post came off as angry, but I'm really not.
I'm happy that you have a great laser now, inside and out.
Thank you for clarifying Benm. I misunderstood your meaning, sorry...
You may have missed my point. The only reason I had to make the wire heatsink was because this was designed to be temporary (yet sturdy enough to never be a problem).
Potting it would preclude this and not to mention waste a ton of epoxy. Theres almost no scenario short of air being conductive...
Sounds good. Actually I wanted to look into getting a beam expander, does sinner sell the expander itself or just the adapter?
I have an adjustable SXD to 5A, and it's definitely a great driver. I think all X-drives have ramp ups, but I like the high current capabilities of the SXD.
I might...
Ah well hi guys...
Not my prettiest build I admit, but hopefully I can clear a couple things up.
First I would like to say, the bent pins could not have been me, I was extremely careful to not twist the wires. I disassembled it several times before selling it. It looks like someone either...
Welcome, and don't expect that 532 module to be 200mw, should do 100-125mw, which is still great for the price. I started with a similar one (rated 200mw), too, and have owned several. They are a lot of fun.
I'm only worried that I won't get it in time to use before I leave for three months in ten days. He confirmed mine was shipped last week, so I have hope.
It's supposed to show once in the US, but last GB it didn't update till the day I got it, like eitan said ↓
Re: Fs: CUSTOM LASER HOSTS, NEW HOSTS ADDED TODAY 8/16/15
On the copper brass and aluminum host, it the set screw visible or is it covered by the focus adapter?
That's terrible. I hope you get it all sorted out and get your money back. I'm surprised PayPal would let that through. I feel like this type of thing is becoming more prevalent, which is unfortunate. Sorry to hear that, good luck.
