DEAD 5.6mm diodes needed

[xStatiCa]

I am getting some Kryton Groove hosts at some point in the future and will need to press 5.6mm diodes(LOC, 405nm, 445nm) into the heat sinks. Instead of using new diodes for the initial press fitting I want to use some dead diodes with undamaged housings. Unfortunately I don't have any. All of my builds have been successful so far (yea I just jinxed myself) and don't really want to disassemble any of my existing builds.

If someone has some dead diodes (looking for one of each kind (LOC, 405nm, 445nm). I am looking for an example from each in case there is a very slight variance in size to the different kinds of diodes. I am willing to pay to have them shipped using cheap slow shipping methods (not in a hurry).

Anyone have any they don't want and don't mind shipping them to me?

There is no inter-wavelength variation in diameter.

PM your mailing address to me. I will send you a few

Peace,

Thanks! It is good to know that the outside housing diameters do not have any noticeable difference in diameters. I figured the tolerances with making the housings might be ever so slightly different in diameter.

PM incoming. Thanks again!
