These heatsinks are great at handling the higher powered 9mm diodes, AND a driver thermal glued to the back.
Prices are great too!
Machine work is flawless. I would rep you if I could.:wave:
I will be reviewing his XM900 heatsink once I get some beam shots
Well, I chose the NDB7675 because it can be pushed much further than the M462. Also, I wanted to do a 9mm build, but that wasn't much of a deciding factor. The farthest I've seen it pushed is 2.9A, which put the WL at 474nm:drool...
The NDB7675 is really a great diode for pushing the crap out of it.
If I build in this host again, I will probably drill out the divider behind the pill and thermal glue the driver to the SIDE of the host.
NDB7675 UltraFire F13
Before I get started, I would like to say that I have looked all over the forums, and have found no reviews of the F13 modified into a laser. So, I may or may not be the first to build in this host. Either ways, this can be somewhat of an instructional review I suppose:D...

This had some things that I didn't have at the time that were helpful. I hope it helps you!
WHAT?!? If I would've known that earlier, I would've gone with the "C" mag. Well, too late now:crackup:
Actually, Never mind, because the driver should only be run for a max of 2 minutes straight. And by then, the heatsink/diode aren't really that hot. So, getting a "C" mag wouldn't change my...
Hey, I have finished building my most powerful laser yet, and I would like to thank Jayrob and DTR for their hard work.:thanks:
I have made a video review for this laser, but I will be adding more pics and text info tomorrow because its late:tired:
Here is the link for the video just in case...
Here is a pic of my whole team. (I am the third from the left).

And probably my favorite action shot of all time, taken 2 years ago at regionals::D

I really don't feel like getting deep into this, so, here is some evidence that suggests otherwise:
But if it is $15.50 cheaper, and you don't really need that %40 extra run time, then I would go for the aluminum.
