hmm, more that I think about it, more it puzzles me. Does anyone know why we always get this fluloresenting colors to be just like DPSS available colors (532nm and 594nm) and not some other colors. Is it just coincidence?

thanks jayrob,
I want to figure out better heat sink and fit open can phasor diode in this new case. 300mW+ of RED is getting to my head now : :

Milos, for those 300mW BURNERS, we like the MXDL host for the open can. I'm selling the heatsinks now:

They are custom fit for the MXDL...

yes, I saw this thread. Great work guys!
I will be going different rout though trying to keep cost below $50 for everything, so I will be using stuff I have around. Thanks though.

This is a regular single turn pot. All you need to do is test your pots with ohm meter on your multimeter. Join one side pin to the middle and connect one probe to it. The other probe connect to the remaining pin. If you rotate the pot, it will show you min and max resistance on the multimeter.
