Do these parts work together?

[Rez]

Hey,

I'm thinking about building a red soon, and I'm just wondering if these parts would be compatible.

Host: Jayrob's Pocket Mini

Driver: Blitz-Linear Driver

Diode: DTR's single mode 650nm

:thanks:

yes if you get the module version and not the upgraded press fit heat sink. you also need to get a round driver to press into the pill as there isnt enough room by the looks of it for a rectangular driver and spring combo

EDIT: you also posted a driver with only 65mA current. that diode is good for up to 350mA conservatively. you can always push the diode but it may die sooner. id say get 200-250mA driver. not sure if it will even lase at 65mA

HERE has 100, 150 and 200mA options

The driver he linked has a pot on it, and can put out anywhere from 65mA to 1A. Look closely on the name of it in the link; that hyphen there should mean between those currents. Also, in the description of the driver I believe it says what I've just stated above.

@Rez : That driver will power your laser properly with a single Li-ion battery, but I would check with JayRob first to see if it would fit. Livin brought up a good point there and rather than have us speculate, it's best to as the man who has it himself.

Missed the 65-1A part some how? I swear when I looked at it firat time it said 65mA. Although I still stand behind my recommendation to get a preset driver. Id you dont have thw proper equipment its impossible to set a drivers current

If he's a beginner to electrical engineering as well as lasers, then yes I completely agree with you. :yh:
