So, as you can see, I'm new here. I've been following this site for a while, and am finally going to get started on making my own lasers... But I have a fee questions:
Making a DIY laser driver:
- What difference would it make to use a different strength resistor?
- ... Or a 25ohm pot instead of a 100ohm pot?
- What would be considered "optimum" for a red burning laser? ( I may make it green if my green diode still works)
Housing:
- Do you NEED to have an Aixiz module, or is there something comparable you can buy in a store (radio shack)?
- Can you use cheapo LED lights to house?
Sorry for posting a "omg halp me plz" as my first post, but these are questions I was unable to fine elsewhere on the site.
Thanks a lot, and I look forward to being a part of your community,
