Re: FS: 445nm, 900mW-1W Chrome Pens - $100 Each
Yeah, these builds don't look like something that would come with a warranty. You know going in that they aren't heat sinked and you are probably gambling on diode life. I think it is more than fair to look at them on a case by case basis.
				
			Well, I'm not going to be offering warranties on the diodes here. If someone abuses the laser and the diode dies, I will not cover it. These are only being run at 1.25A and, if the duty cycle is obeyed, it should live for a long, long time, considering it's a low current. However, I will warrant any problems that come above from my workmanship, i.e. if the button fails or the driver shorts. Basically, if the diode isn't LEDd, I will investigate the problem and report if it was user failure causing the diode to die or if it was driver/contact failure. But I stated the duty cycle on the laser and it is the user's responsibility to follow it.
However, I would gladly have a few selectable currents/powers for users!
