Going going gone...
I have up for auction a laser box kit. All items included in the pictures below. This is a blue-violet edition, meaning it's the blu-ray 405nm violet laser, like the ones sold by Daedal here on the forum (actually this was one of the diodes sold by daedal). I made a driver and put it into the box which is capable of over 300mA, but would probably require a heat sink if used at that power. It uses dual caps for the best in spike protection, and a diode for reverse voltage protection.
The blu-ray laser is tuned to 40mA (about 18mW going by the graph of power output posted here), just above lasing threshold, and is adjustable using the built-in potentiometer. But I wouldn't suggest going above what it's set at or risk blowing the laser. This makes certain materials and UV reactive objects fluoresce like a black light. It comes with a UV reactive 4-pin molex, w/power button, for 24/7 use in a computer and accepts 8-12 volts DC input (so it can be modular with a 9v battery). The temperature stays barely warm even with extended use. Also included are some UV reactive rubber buttons, glass, and plastic pieces with some material for sticking the pieces in any location for bouncing the beam all around the inside of your computer case.
Buy this alone for either the powerful-adjustable driver which can be used for just about anything, or just the blu-ray diode in a focusable housing. Very low price. Read more at the link below.
