Not sure if any of you saw my other post, but I am awaiting to do my first laser build from a dilda and I am trying to research and understand as much as possible so I do this right the first time.
I bought an A140 diode (thanks to yobresal)
a 445nm AR lens (techhood on ebay)
and a groove 2 (from the hacylon website)
I have already modded my case so i have a proper + connection
A. The groove 2 has a BATT-, BATT+, LD-, and LD+ on it.
So which pin is which on the A140 to begin with because i have seen many different diagrams online? Describe in terms hypothetically if the case pin is on the right.
.
B. What gets soldered to what connection (keeping in mind that the case is -)?
The positive battery connection is self exp...but what about the others? I can't tell by the diagrams on the manual for the groove 2.
C. Can I use a Supergule plus leftover Arctic MX-4 mixture to heat-sink the driver to the host head?
D. Which way does this lens go into the head? Which end(end with inner screw or flat end with only the two slots) faces the diode?
Thanks in advance everyone!
