CLOSED: Projector - $55 9mm 445nm diodes (0 remaining)

Nah, I'll be sure to use pliers too to make it even faster, short leads are better, right? :evil:

But seriously I was a little too optimistic with my timing. I am getting absolutely hammered with work by my courses but the diodes,etc. should still be in the mail in a reasonable amount of time, especially in comparison to some other GBs I've seen in the past. It was just that this GB went so smoothly (after I decided to move from feeler to gb) that I wanted to keep with the pace, but I am only a college student.

Don't rush the diode removal process.
I can wait !!!!!
Thanks - HMike

Slow and steady is the way to go when dealing with electronic repair or dissection in this case.
Take your time and do it right. No pressure

Modules and lens holders have arrived! Thanks DTR :beer:

Looking good, things continue to move along at a nice pace.
Thanks for the update.

Update: Diode arrays extracted

Ahh, I knew you were going to use explosives! :gun:

Don't forget the pictures!
Sadly I couldn't jump in this GB since I spend most of my laser budget in lenses! (Planning to sell some though!)

Have a nice day,
Jim

Haha honestly by the time I had gotten the arrays out and put the projector back together, I had completely forgot to. Luckily this projector was actually really simple. I will try to post some pics before I take my iron out for final extraction.

Also, looking forward to receiving my lenses . No rush though, of course. This GB is not even comparable to having that many pieces and orders to keep track of by one self.

Susie shipped the lenses two days ago...thus I should have them by next week for sure! :beer:

Good luck with the extraction,
Jim

Update: Diodes extracted and ready for testing

 

[Mattronium]

Looks good. :beer:

Which ones are mine? j/k

 

[COMMANDR]

Test away, good luck.

 

[ImA4Wheelr]

Thanks for the updates. What test or tests will be run on them?

 

[petters]

Just if they are working. I don't have a LPM nor the time to put each one in a heatsink to make sure that they meet specs (since that was the manufacturer's job).

Thanks for the updates. What test or tests will be run on them?

 

[petters]

Update: Diodes tested; all 24 working

 

[Mattronium]

Whew:beer: That's good news,

Just make sure that when you send them out you package them very good (as I'm sure you will).

:thanks:
