Hiya all, I have a lot of IR diodes ( 780 nm !!) from my extensive harvesting of high power LD,s so I wanna sell them or possibly trade them for glass lenses.
I have like a dozen of IR diodes from Philips115D drives, donno precise power, however my friend says he managed to burn through plain white paper without marking a spot with marker or 'sharpie' , whatever.

Anybody interested in trading (or buying) please PM me.
No fixed price on the diodes themselves, we are all humans we can come to an agreement :D

Would also trade for other laser goodies (Aixiz modules, etc) however lens are highest priority.

BTW, diodes are all in their heatsinks, with ribbon cable still soldered on, so you know i haven't tampered with them. Only pulled them outta sleds.
 





Sorry but people give these away. Dave just gave away 15 in sleds with the optics for just the cost of shipping.

Powerfull IR diodes? Hell then, just my luck :D I don't think iwill be giving it away though. Somebody will need them sonner or later. I knew i couldn't get mucho $$$ for it, just wanna trade them all of 'em for, like one glass lense or a couple of aixiz modules (blank ones, cheaper).
 
They arent really that powerful last time i checked? I think they do about 70mw's; which isnt much for an ir diode.
 
I cant find any Phillips 115D drives only Pioneer. Its an IR diode from a DVD burner. Not very high power.
 
Yes my bad, it is pioneer. Well if they can burn through plain white paper, i don't think they are too weak. I used one of them to make firecraker burner last Christmass, burns very reliably. Even those bright yellow firecraker starters. Heck they cannot be only 70 mW. I bet!
 
List a power or a low price, I'm interested in anything that burns hard. Pics or vids of it's capabilities are fine too.
I'm getting a pair of 2W 808nm diodes, so you'd better have something over 200mw ;)

Well, power is unknown to me (i do not own LPM), nor have i ever checked it out. I can surely say it is above 200mW, however, they are Sort Cosed Can type, and after your pair of 2W IRs, i don't think you will be impressed by those.
I counted them just now, i have 10 diodes, however, i think some of them are flat type, not standard 5.6 mm package. Only 3 of them are like that.

However, if you still want them, I'll trade ya 10 IR diodes for one glass AR coated red laser lens for aixiz module. Only one.
 
Even 200mw is nice enough for a lot of things. What package is it, something like a c-mount?
Unfortunately, I don't have such a lens, anything else you could use?
