Device for continuos operation?

[Mille]

I have a laser pointer from nova with a button, that when releasing, it stop working.
I need something that with first click start, and with the second click it stops operation.
There's anything around?

There's a lot of devices

What wavelength do you need?
How long do you want to use it (without turning it off)
How much power?

Oh I almost forgot the most important question: how much do you want to spend?

I'm not talking about a new laser pointer... sorry if i explained badly.
I need an external device... something like an additional button whitout release to add (externally) to my existing pointer
i don't know really how to explain it lol

That would require tearing apart the module to add a toggle button. If you're not willing to do that, I'd just get out a rubber-band and a penny or something to hold the button down.

Havent you heard of duct tape , just tape the main switch down then run wires from the negative of the battery to a toggle switch then back to the laser case.

...lazer... ;D ;D ;D

A proper-sized rubber-"O-ring" is a standard for this use, see your local hardware store. Just be carefull to not out so much pressure on your switch that you damage it, just enough to depress the button.

i would also make sure that your laser isn't getting too hot being on for long periods of time ... some of them need a duty cycle to keep from overheating and possibly hurting something
