I am looking to make a low power pulse laser (<500mw), I have found a diode at 400mw when pulsed (Sony SLD3237VF). I just need a circuit design for a pulse laser or some, if anyone knows a guide or such that would be very helpful :)

Yes the hole is slightly to small but i believe if i use a washer or a nut in between the pins and the back end of the housing it may work

This is the best thread ever...

the file attached is the module i have got, what am i meant to do?

Do you know a place to get a press set in the UK, I don't really want to spend all that money on a press set that i may only use once :(

I am struggling to put a 3.8mm diode into its housing. My usual approach to putting in diodes is to bash it in with some metal tools however due to the small size of the diode and the static sensitivity of it, i am struggling to get it in without killing the diode. I do own a vice but im not...

Finally after a few weeks, I got all the videos I wanted and here they are: video

no its definetly 150mw i have to focus it down to the smallest point or it wont smoke anything or burn anything. I have now got a 1w diode and their is a big difference in burning.

I wish i would have known this when i bought my goggles!

Anyway once you find the required current you will need to buy or make a driver.

You will need a driver to power the diode, they regulate current otherwise your diode will die. Watch this styropyro video which will teach you the basics on how to make a simple driver: this driver is very cheap and all parts needed are on ebay. I dont reccomend you use a salvaged dvd laser...

You cant get all this on eBay. Im struggling to understand what you want. do you want a laser module for the TO-18 can laser diode with a lense, because those are very cheap of eBay, or are you looking for a housing to put that module in??? Because if you just need a module you will need a new...

Thank you! Once my new laser diode arrives, I will hopefully be abele to make <1 watt laser!

Dont mind, i have eBay to get my diodes!

OD6 90-540nm Eagle Pair Goggles

Find them on eBay. This seller is where i have bought my laser diodes: seller

Hello, i'm new as well and i can say there is lots of knowledge here!

1 watt 450nm Laser. High power time!

No problem I'm glad you enjoyed!
