Most definitely! Not only a 26% increase in power, but a more intensely focused dot.
Burning power is increased a bunch! But the focus is much more touchy.
You get used to it though...

Get any crap in front of a LD out of the way especially with high powered diodes. That crap might smoke off and damage your optics. You won't see the smoke but it is there.

Got some smoke on one of your lenses Mike?
As you know, the lens assembly comes apart easily to make cleaning a piece of cake!

Hey Jay He ordered that for me, But i have a question for you.
How strong should Dark set my 8x he's building me, I want it to last for a while, as in I'm giving it 30 sec duty cycles, 2 minute cool down, good host (diode pressed into heatsink?), and it's cool where I live.
400mw is where he's at, but with your lens whats a good mA for me? I said 289 lol, should I go lower, 350 to 400 would be cool. Maybe your lens assembly will be the best yet and I'll get a freak diode.
