Hey guys, so I finally registered to the forums and decided to start tinkering with the rest of you... But I'm getting stopped up on the very first phase:
I followed Daedal's tutorial on making a DIY Laser Driver ( laserpointerforums.com/forums/YaBB.pl?num=1185701612 ), but mine doesn't work, even when set up EXACTLY like his. I've found that if I remove the wire that connects to the left side of the LM317T, the circuit seems to work fine (tested with a 9v battery and a xmas bulb)... Any help for my issue? I'm afraid to start hooking lasers up to something thats missing a wire.....
Thanks
