Hey everyone,
like many others I too have unfortunately let my laser pointer drop and heard a rattle so I figured I'd enquire this forum. Having used the search function it's almost sure it can't be fixed or isn't worth the attention.
However I pulled it apart and was wondering if I could somehow glue it together (superglue isn't recommended I read).
It concerns a standard 532NM 50-100mW laser and it would still work if the crystal+lens combination didn't let go. There was no red light. It shines pretty far and you can see the beam go 3kms in the dark so it'd be a shame to let it go, would anything be salvagable?
Pics:
All parts
Circuitboard
Crystal and lens are at good distance from each other
Other side of lens+crystal
This part has the + and - wires, but one of them is shortened and I'm not sure if I glue it, it will connect. The right one is shortened if you zoom in.
If anyone can give me an answer + why it would/wouldn't be fixeable I'll definitely donate to this site.
I am myself a physics undergraduate at uni so I'm still starting in this field. Thanks in advance
