Hello.
So I bought an Arcane build (9mm 445nm diode, driven at 2.35A) from TheJoker301. Everything went well, and Joker was extremely courteous and fast at replying to my messages.
I received the laser in the mail today. However, the first time I turned it on, I noticed that the dot was extremely weird (seemed like some concentric, small blue rings). So, I took off the lens and looked at the raw output of the diode. Below is a picture of that:
Here's a picture of the diode housing. Seems pretty snug in there.
Obviously, this is not normal and there may be some dust or something on the diode. However, I couldn't see any dust or anything else that looked abnormal on the diode. Do any of you have any ideas of what may be going on, and what a possible fix can be? Thanks in advance for the help.
