i have sent email to greg regarding his diodes which are not what they appear to be
c/p of the conversation
me:
Hello,
i bought this sony 16x diode from you...well 2 of them
First one died after 2 days of using it with flexdrive set at 200 ma, it was
in aixiz module and it was heatsinked.
I thought that it was problem with my flexdrive, so i bought another one,
solder it to my ddl driver put it at 200 ma and my diode died after 2 days
of rare usage (aixiz module,heatsinked).
My proposal to you is that you put some instructions, guys over at
laserpointer forum said that this diode is not capable of taking any current
over 130ma, which i believe it is true.
Maybe diodes that you had before could take high current but this new
ones....no.
So please change the name of diodes, because theese are not 16x diodes, they
are more like 12x or so.
Other stuff that i buyed from you was ok, i had just this issue with sony
diode which is clearly not 16x diode.
Bye

greg:
I appreciate your issues, but these are 16x typed diodes, and will continue
to be sold as such - regardless of what "LPF" says. These diodes were
tested to be ran at OVER 400ma for hours on end, and have had zero problems,
except for improper handling by the end user.
What I suggest to you is this, Change the way you address me in emails, or
other correspondence if you wish a civil reply, submit a civil email for
consideration. I sincerely hope that is understood. If it is
not, perhaps
you should post this reply, along with your original email in the forum, and
ask someone what it is I am trying to say.

me again :
I did not attacked you in any way, i said that everything is ok, my diode died it is no problem i will buy another one.
I think my mail was in civil way so you dont have to insult me.
I did not ask you for refund or anything, you are keeping a review of the diode which is not correct, these new diodes are weaker.
So i asked you to change diode description or delete that review that says this diode is capable of taking 400ma of current, mine two died because of that.
Try diode "5MKJ 9006" at 400 ma, mine died at 200 ma. Again i DO NOT ask you for refund.
I DID NOT handled it impropery, as i said they were put in aixiz module, all the way to the end, and put in a heatsink
heatsink was NEVER hot, not even warmer than my skin, or as warm as my skin
Again test theese new ones, you will see that they are not like the old ones.

greg :
Don’t try it. I did not insult you – your email is escalating the issue. At present, you will NOT be able to purchase anything from me, or my store. Any further replies will be routed first, to your email account, in care of spam complaints, and second, to my junk mail filter. Bye.

Greg Stoner
i think that greg was a little bit angry that day so i am not mad at him
he did not even consider that maybe i am right, for a shopkeeper this is not a good habit
second thing is, he first says that he is not interested in what LPF says and then he asks me to put our conversation to LPF
i do not want to argue with anybody, it is not my intention, i just wanted to tell him that he should test these new diodes and put some info to his site
clearly they are not capable of currents higher than 130-150 ma
