A few weeks ago they were selling these lasers for $2000. They have the 500mW as well, but they are...

    Micro stepper motors from bluray sleds

    All bluray sleds these days have a small micro stepper motor that uses a screw drive to move a lens assembly. You can see it in the lower left corner on this 12x sled. The motor appears to be a bipolar stepper motor (thats why they have 4 leads) and likely works similarly to the larger stepper...

    Contact lens for your laser?

    I am working on cutting down the size of a green laser module at the moment and a thought came to me. Currently most green modules use 2 lenses to create a low diverging beam. But are two lenses needed? The answer is not really. Because of the nature of lasers we want to take light that is...

    green laser module focus, can one lens be used?

    I am trying to shorten the length of one of sandstone's 50mw green modules. The module uses two lenses. One is mounted to the diode and the second is mounted in the barrel piece. The first lens expands the beam and the second one corrects the divergence. My question is, has anyone removed the...

    Modifying a Lava drive with different pot

    I am interested in modifying a lavadrive so that the current can be adjusted on the fly. I would like to remove the current trim pot off the drive and attach either a slide or thumb wheel resistor in its place. Before this can be done, I need to know the model of the current trim pot on the...
