Guys,
Since summer 2008 I have two DX green 50mW lasers one pot modded and one 'true' 50mW. Until last summer they worked without problems although sometimes they got sometimes dimmer but after using longer they worked again normally.
Now after 3 months of non usage they did not function anymore I replaced the batteries and saw a dim green light and then wednt off. I tried both alkalines and charged NiMHs (2xAAA) same problem.
The ambient temperature was 17-18oC, colder than previous times.
A third one purchased in Jan 2010 does not have these issues and works normally.
Do these devices age even when not in use ?
