is anyone thinking about a murder fund for one of those new 500mW rated blu-ray diodes coming out? I'm thinking 600mA.

@ IgorT: this is a problem that occasionally happens on VB script boards ..... you attach an image, it result attached, also in the preview, but at the second preview, or when you post, no more attached image ..... it happened also to me, a pair of times, and also in other places that uses VB, so it's not a problem of this particular forum, but a problem inside VB scripts.
Which 500mW rated diodes? CW or Pulsed rating?
I haven't heard anything of that type, altho i haven't had much time to read the forum latelly, so i might have missed something. :thinking:
.....I guess we'll see at 120h. The show must go on
...
This info is simply from one of those "Sony has developed" type press releases. They are not available yet (except as, probably, a research sample).
Anybody got $8000 sitting around gathering dust?
Peace,

We reached 100 hours, the experiment is over and the diode lived, now what?
Crank up the current and see how long it survives?
I think we decided to leave to current alone... because if we know how long this diode DOES last, it will give a more clear idea of how high to set the next candidate.. we shouldn't be changing variables in the middle of the experiment. The experiment ends when the diode is dead.
The experiment was to try and kill the diode and see if it'll make 100 hours of cycling. We are there and the diode is still kicking.
I would like to see if it lasts another 10 hours at 400ma. I'll bet it does.
Yes, the second diode will have a higher current but only slightly higher. They won't go crazy, that's for sure.
Personally I have no desire for a diode that lasts 100 hours. I would say 10-20 hours is plenty of useful life so wht not run it at a current that'll give that?
I think the experiment was over at 100 hours. Now that we still have a working diode it's time to ramp it up till she pops!
