Hello,

I recently ordered "Housing/Case/Heatsink 5.6mm TO18 Laser Diode LD 405nm 450nm Blue Glass Lens Fan" from ebay and wondered if anyone had any experience? How well will the optic work, etc.

This is my first laser project, but have had a lot of experience with industrial LEDs and drivers through work.

Here is the given description:
