What is the benefit of de-canning a diode? Also, how were you able to do so without damaging the internal parts of the diode?

VERY carefully, and sometimes the internal parts do get damaged and then the diode gets tossed. The benefits in this case we a much cleaner output. The diode window was causing problems.

Yeah, I would be curious what increases in power you get by losing the can/glass.
