200mw red dilda host for 6x or 8x?

[zxn474l]

I was wondering the old style version dilda completely unscrews allowing acess to the driver circuit and diode, it runs on 2 three volt batteries...could this diode be removed and simply replaced with a 6x or 8x 405nm blue ray diode and just use the batteries it comes with or upgrade to the 3.6 volt rechargable ones and replace the lens for a 405nm wave length, and what mw power would it probally produce? Also since this laser completely disasembles could it run on a 9 volt battery with higher amps from the battery...I saw a special 9 volt battery listed on a battery web site that is 9 volts and 1200ma!!! Could the driver circuit handle the extra amperage from this battery because the stock batteries this laser uses are 600ma? I would like to boost it's power because I have read this driver circuit only regulates current and not so much voltage allowing more voltage to pass through increasing the final output of the laser! Could the stock long can red laser diode handle a 9 volt battery like that using a new host with a momentary switch? If you have accurate info please be of help. THANK YOU!

well people here used to use a 3,6v battery instead of 3volts and it gives them some increase in power.

if i good remember one member tried to run it at 12volts, but unfortunately i dont remember how it ended up.. maybe he should reply to this topic.

9volts i thik this laser should stand but probably with shrot duty cycle.

you can put blu-ray diode in.someone make it and works,also when you bought your dilda?i order one 5 months ago and you can take it apart but after few months the laser it doesn't workink and they send me a replacement differtent than the old one.the new can't be unsrew to have acces to the driver.

Bad, Bad, Bad Idea. The Dilda has Horrible Heatsinking abilities. Why waste such a good diode on a crap host.

For its heatsinking abilities, I'd recommend a PHR in a dilda. I'd also replace the driver as it is not a constant current driver.

If you go 6x, drive it conservatively.
