Hi folks. From time to time I get gifts from some people here, possibly because sometimes I place large orders or maybe because I try being a nice guy every now & then :crackup:

Recently I was fortunate enough to receive a zombied 462 diode that still had decent output (yesss!!) With this surprise, I decided to pass along the good deed by building a nice light blue laser in one of my kits and offering it up to some lucky person for donating to the forum.
So here it is, a few days ago I donated $20 and I want you to match my donation :)

ANYONE who donates $20 between now and the end of the month (10.31.14 2400 CST) qualifies with declaring it in this thread

1 $20 donation will assign you a number, multiple donations (up to 5) = multiple numbers/entries
A drawing will be done after 10/31/14 & all the donators have been listed.
A forum moderator (Daguin) will do the drawing using random.org and post results

I dont want to get into anything complex with this process but here are a few simple requirements:

-must be 18 yrs or older and not problematic on LPF( subject to public opinion)
-must own or will immediately acquire appropriate safety googles
-multiple entries limited to 5 per person
-min post count of 25 to enter
-focus lens in picture not included


This is what's on the table:
M462nm zombie
613mA jufran lm1117 driver
minisabre v2 polished host
2x AW14500 LiMN batteries
*lens not included

This laser measured ~250mW. It can be left on for up to 2 minutes before getting too warm.
Please consider donating $20 if you're interested or feeling lucky!
If I'm missing or forgetting anything here please comment and ask.

Thank you everyone for participating, good luck! :D

Been a while since I donated anyway, I'm sure this'll help out the forum a bit!

Thanks guys! I have 2 entries penciled in so far, will add them to OP once you're listed on the donations page ;)

I've also made Avery (LPF/donations admin) aware of this r4ffle - if anyone donates but doesn't see their name for a few days don't worry. Your donation & entry will not be overlooked before the drawing.

Again - thank you! :beer:

Re: donation r@ffle - polished minisabre v2 462nm blue

Again thanks!! Much appreciated ;)

I'm thinking of changing my conditions here & removing the 'US only' part of this :thinking: Despite the complications international shipping could pose, I dont think it's fair to exclude the international option just to make is easier on myself. Allowing this could bring in several more donations & that's the primary purpose. I've gotten lasers pretty much all over the globe in the past when I sold them, I'm going to change the policy and ask anyone international to participate! My apologies for not coming to this sooner, this r@f is a 1st for me so I didn't expect perfection from my layout.

Hopefully this change wont create any issues, but now Im asking anyone to donate & participate. OP revised and updated!! :beer:

Only issue with opening international is your on the hook for an expensive shipping cost. Going to be ~$20 to ship international. Just shipped a box to NZ and its was like $35!

What if I donate enough to cover all the possible international entries ;) :na: muahhahahaha

Yeah I know about the expense, no big deal. I'll cover that if it comes to it, $35 would probably be the most I'd need to pay but we'll see if someone from that far away donates! My local PO lady is awesome too, she's helped me many times with international shipping & customs. If someone outside the US gets it they get it :)

Put me in for a 20 dollar donation too.

You got it, thanks for joining in!
