OMG, Benm, you are causing me to exercise brain cells I haven't used since college physics, almost 40 years ago. And it hurts. But I like to understand and you made me do some research and I am finding it interesting. Since the power source is sold with the laser, I am going to go with the...

Thanks. I figured they sell a lot, it should be OK, but reading all the posts about the sensitivity of the diodes to current overload, mostly, I wanted to make sure.

Hi. I'm a total newbie and trying to understand, so any help is appreciated. If I get any of the many offered laser module / ACC driver / 110V power adapter, am I likely to be safe using household power? Or are the irregularities (spikes) going to kill the driver and diode? Same question but...

Hi. Looking for a small self contained focusable dot laser module, 635-638nm, 200-300mW, external power supply (not battery driven) suitable for 110V plug-in. Thinking bullet type 20-30mm diameter and 50-100mm length. Short, intermittent bursts so heat build-up shouldn't be an issue. If it...

Thank you for the link, ENCAP. GSS - That makes me feel better. The props are painted (probably white) gloss on a polyurethane hard shell, probably thin like 5mm, over expanded polyurethane (Styrofoam) forms on a PVC skeleton. So it probably melts easily; and also, if I mount any laser inside...

Thank you laserbee, cyberdoc and Alaskan. I had spent quite some time looking through here and photonlexicon and ILDA without finding good answers. But looking more, I was better able to find stuff. Please correct me if I am wrong on this and please continue to provide any advice. It looks...

I am looking for help with a project and am almost completely naïve (unless you count using a pointer). I would certainly appreciate any helpful response including redirection to a better source where this all may be found. I do have a science and math degree and some programming experience...
