Yeah I am using a 405-G-1.
I've built at least 4 12X lasers - some with the S06J and some with the SF-BW510 (IIRC) and they all have been about the same with the exception of the first 12X I built. I think it produced about 480mW at ~375mA with 405-G-1.
I wouldn't mind so much if I used bigger hosts but I like to use pen hosts and my current 12X is in a "pocket mini" so the extra current means extra heat and shorter continuous run time.
Seeing threads like these just remind me of how below average my poor laser is.
What is the forward voltage at ~600mA for your laser?
Iam a Sucker for big Host. They're my Favorite. However I most recently started to get into pen styles. I always like them. SO I conceder this pen a beefy one.
The heatsink in this was Re done. Well I keeped the original design of it but add some copper to it to beef it up.
I dint test the forward voltage. Ill find out for you though as Iam Building another High power one in another host for someone so I will be able to get that info for you.
I will update this thread for you when i get it.
