Well I mounted four 10 Ohm resistors and compared them to my other one with three 10 Ohm resistors and the difference as far as I can see (beam length in the fog) is not much. In terms of burning, the one with four resistors does pop balloons faster, but still takes awhile unlike the vids I've...

I did, it's much brighter now. It helps a lot, but still no lighting matches. I have another GB LD I can try out. Maybe this weekend I'll have it done and compare them :)

Well I used three 10 Ohm resistors and the beam is nice and bright, but it still does not burn any matches. It does smoke black electrical tape though. Should I use four resistors? I'm kinda disappointed that it isn't as powerful as everyone else's. Maybe I just got a weaker LD :(

Thanks jayhawker08, I put two 10 Ohm resistors in parallel on the negative terminal. Works well now, but only smokes black electrical tape. Doesn't light up blacked out matches though :( Kenom, will 4x 10 Ohm resistors bring it to 2.5 Ohms? Can I also use 3x 10 Ohm resistors? Phazonx, what...

Phazonx I could only find a 10 Ohm resistor and mounted that in, but it doesn't even light a match :( Where is everyone getting their 5 Ohm and 2.5 Ohm resistors? I can't find any shop or anything online for up here in Canada. I checked out Digikey, but they are out. Is it the 1/4 watt 5 Ohm...

Not sure if this will work, but I thought I'd ask here :) I am planning on getting a heatsink made for my Kentorch that I am making. It will have fins cut out of it. Can I use an LED instead of a resistor so that I can have some funky light coming from the spaces in the heat sink? Cheers, Ray ;D

The model I am talking about is the one used in this mod by Kenom: http://www.laserpointerforums.com/forums/YaBB.pl?num=1181635652;start=all They are hard to find, but BestBuy has them! There are Dorcy LED lights at other shops, but they do not have this specific model. Also FutureShop has the...

I dunno, it looks like swastika on the bottom lefthand corner :(

Question, I also have some Zinc and Titanium sheets. How would this compare to Aluminum in dissipating the heat? Greenie, do you have an image of yours installed? Thanks :)

That's exactly what I was talking about. Awesome! I was thinking more fins and maybe even bend them in a spiral pattern somewhat to get more surface area :)

I was thinking since I have access to aluminum sheets that I could just cut the sheet to length & width and then fold "fins", like an accordian and wrap that around the Aixiz module. So if you were to look at it from the front, it would be star shaped. Or I can just wrap the module until it's...

I picked this up at Sears. Not to many places to get hardware stuff in downtown Vancouver. I figured out how to pop the lense off! I put the bottom of the reflector ot top of a cd spndle andgave it a good wack! Popped off nicely :) I'll try out this as a host tonite if I have time and I'll...

I can't find that Mini Dorcy anywhere up here in Canada. I did find the 1W Dorcy that uses 3xAAA batts. I opened it up and the driver looks identical to the Mini Dorcy. Will I still be able to use this? And should I use the 47uF capacitor? I'm having a hell of a time taking off the lense. I'm...

Can I use any of the DIY circuit boards for LED Flashlights from DealExtreme as a driver to power SenKat's LD modules? I think this may be the one to use: h t t p : / / w w w . d e a l e x t r e m e . c o m / d e t a i l s . d x / s k u . 4 4 5 1 ( I can't post links yet) Cheers, Ray

Here are the two hosts. One is a bike light I am no longer using and the other is a Batman flashlight I got a long time ago. I'm leaning toward the Batman light as it has quite a bit of room in it. I am planning on purchasing the SenKat pre installed LD w/ Aizis module. Now for the question...

I hope there are spare ones! I'd totally be up for getting one :)

Thanks SenKat! BTW it shows $15 on Google checkout, but it's now $20 for Paypal?

Re: 70mw RED Module With Diver $17.24 Can I swap out the kit's 70mW with Senkat's 200mW pre-installed LD modules?

Re: DX kit+Senkat's preinstalled LDs. Will this wo Thanks shikari_rock!

sku 9865 Will I be able to replace the LD in that DX kit with Senkat's pre-installed LD's? Will this replace the driver module for a burning laser? And I see it's for 5V. Will I be able to use 2xcr123's or a 9V battery with this? I'm new and don't now much about electronics, I do know how to...
