blue ray and 16x dvd lasers help

[llxpntbllxll]

im looking at making a blue-ray and a 16x dvd laser. but the problem is the flexdrives are sold out, and wont be back instock for 2 weeks it says so is there anyone that has 2 they could sell or anywhere else to buy them or different drivers that would work? thanks for all your help

how would that help? im looking for something that will drive a blue-ray diode and another one that will power a 16x dvd diode...

thanks alot that looks like it will have to do. i plan on buying 2 of them and making a blue ray and a 16x burner. how many mW do you think i can get a blue ray and a 16x up to with the adjustable driver? ill probably either be using 2 or 3 AAA batterys depending on the host i buy

With this driver, you have to have at least 5V for reds, and 7V for blu-rays. For a blu-ray, set the driver to 150mA and you will have around 140mW. With a 16x red from StoneTek, set it to 300mA-350mA and you will have around 200mW.
If you want to use 2 AAA, then use these batteries:

The driver can take a maximum of 12V, and these batteries can go up to 4.2V fully charged.

alright thanks alot. now heres one more question, good host for a blue-ray? i would like a nice looking one but a smaller one and also what module is the best for a blue-ray? and also would a 200mW do more or less burning than a 140mW blue-ray?

An AixiZ module.
You could use a pen host with 2 AAA size 3.7V batteries.
Of course a 200mW BR will burn better than a 140mW.
But if you set the current to 200mA for a PHR-803T than your diode will die.
If you buy a 6x from AMK, you can easily get 200mW by setting it to 200mA, but i recomend setting it to 180mA, and it will lov you forvever

would a aixiZ module fit in the host good? and also where can i get a blue ray diode i think im going to make the blue ray first just cuase of how it looks. and do you have a link by anychance for a blue ray diode or not? i know i can get red diodes from stonetek.and what is the PHR-803T diode your talking about. sorry about all the questions im a noob so im trying to learn

Try starting to learn by reading the "stickys" in each board. If you want to learn something about blu-ray, read the stickys in the blu-ray board. If you want to learn about red diodes, read the stickys in the red board.

Peace,

alright im starting to read them now, i read the ones on this thread but never really noticed the blue-ray one thanks!

Yes, it fits nice and flush.

With IgorT's Special Lenses that can increase the power by 40mW (for all Blu-Rays)!!!

Your Welcome

 

[llxpntbllxll]

thanks so much. one more question does a 200mW red laser burn more or less than a 140mW blue ray? ive heard blue rays burn more at lower mW's compared to other lasers just due to beam diameter?

With a 16x red from StoneTek, set it to 300mA-350mA and you will have around 200mW.

huh? dvd-burner-diode driven by 300mA current?
I read 150mA maximum several times elsewhere...

This current is fine for the 16X RED diode.

Sorry for asking again, but is "the 16X RED diode" not the same thing as a red laser diode from
a 16X DVD-burner?

Or why do other people run their DVD-diodes with a maximum current of 150mA, if
you tell me 300mA would be fine?
