170mw 520nm Ehgemus Host "Little Grass Hopper"

[Nprlaser]

Little Grass Hopper 520nm

I bought another host from Ehgemus earlier this week and received it today.
So what did I do?
I added a green laser module from dtr and it makes a pretty nifty laser.
Specs
Diode: Osram plp520b1
Wavelength: 520nm
Amperage to diode: 0.660A
Host: Ehgemus White powered Aluminum
Operating Voltage: 5.5-6

This host is too damn good to sell and it looks great next to my other Ehgemus Laser.

Now that is a good looking laser! I love side buttons!

Which batteries does this laser use (2*16340)?
Could you post some pics of the beam and dot at night? What about splash and/or wings? Divergence?

I use 3.0v rcr123a cells
It has the triangle splash that Osram diodes usually come with. This splash in particular is pretty symmetrical at least pics will come soon

I agree this is looking good. Very attractive host and good job with equipping it with a 532. And I'd love to see some beam shots as well.

 

[Ehgemus]

Very nice. I guess green dose look good with white powder coat.
:thanks:

Hmm that's seems like a pretty low output for the diode @ 660ma. Mine is putting out 200mw w a g lens and ~170mw w 3 element and it's set @ 450ma. Might wanna check the current at the tailcap or test the batteries. That build is so awesome looking, love nice clean builds +1

It's just a inefficient diode, I had one max out at 240mw before I sold it. Remember these are rated for 120mw.

Wow, that looks OP as

Very nice build, grasshopper! You just need to get the last one, and you'll have the "Ehgemus trio".

@Ehgemus, I think every wavelength will go well with those beautiful white hosts of yours.

thats a nice host.
