Yeah, you should probably pick up some goggles for your 200mW there. Also buy some matches or optics sets, or you'll get bored with it rather quickly. Welcome to the forum.

It is a dildo, this guys gay!" so it would be better if it was flat tipped. Next, what kind of diode is it using, your standard 16x DVD burner thats been pushed to the limit or a good quality diode.
If its a good quality diode than I might buy.
Dr. Lava said that these diodes look something like the "Phazor" diodes in DDL's group buy. If so, they are rated at 200mW CW.xJumper said:Does this 200mW red actually have a diode capable of running at 200mW and of a long lifespan at your average duty cycle or is it a 16x DVD burner diode that has extra voltage running through it?
And does it have a resistor so you don't have to worry about busting it by using Lithium Batteries that usually have higher voltage?

That was exactly what I thought, but then I built my first burning red laser and I was hooked on red! You would be surprised how much fun you can have with a burning laser. If you do order this for your friend, I can almost guarantee when you get it that you are going to go straight to DX and buy one for yourself ;DxJumper said:Im not a fan of reds
