Today I got my dual drive 445 up and running and then 5 minutes later it died... sort of... The diode shut off after a few 30 second runnings. It came back to life but its power level was severly diminished (I believe this happened to someone else here as well). 1800mA was just too much for that particular diode. Time to order some more! I'm going to turn the two flexdrives down a bit... maybe 800mA each instead of 900mA each. I re-used the SolarForce host for my 405 that I had sitting on my table for months. It's running at 550mA... mW is unknown until I can get it metered.
