Cree C3 6X Blu-Ray 200mW

[XCreedX]

I just finished my second blu-ray build which is a 6x, i have a flxdrive set at 200mA which was fixed by lava, and i greatly appreciate it. I machined out a sink and attached the pill and 200mW's of violet light escape through the acrylic lens. I bought a couple more lenses bc they will eventually get eating away by the 6X's power.

It's a nice and compact cree c3 host which is my favorite host so far. Very easy to work with and great quality, not to mention a wicked bright led light with a 14500 for $10 Here is a pic of my 6X and the second one is all my portable lasers together for a RGV shot.

I'll try to get better pics as my phones camera really sucks.

Good work, what power is your trio?

My only advice, get yourself one of the AR-coated lens, man. Knock that thing on up to .25W! I know they're expensive, but it's .25W! A 1/4W! That's one quarter of a full WATT of CW violet goodness! And you won't have to be messing around with the acrylics over and over as they get screwed up by the violet light.

Yeah i hear ya bud. I will definitely get one, yeah, .25W of CW 405nm goodness

You Rock man! That's some f-in violet goodness. What duty cycle are you using? How much did the LD set you back?
