i had an SF-AW210 sled laying around with a diode still attached, so i harvested it, thinking i was going to make an IR burner.....but when i fired it up at 150mA it turned out to be the short open can red that comes on the sled and not the IR.

So i set it at 300mA.........(rkcstr fixed adjustment driver)

if anyone wants it, $25 shipped

output will be around 200mW
The short open can's aren't as strong as the LOC diodes from the LPC.

But it's still makes for a good laser.
I'll drop it to $20 shipped......awesome deal considering it comes with a driver also.

i'll prob have another tomorrow.....seems to be the same diode.....watch this one actually turn out to be an IR....well i'll either have another red, or a burning IR tomorrow.

I'll take it, I really just need the driver though. My laser fell and it's dead now:(

Edit: Nevermind.

I'll take it!

if i can just pop it in the old coleman host with heatsink with 2 CR2's and make it work?
btw: is 300mA a low, medium, or high current for such a diode? (ie, what duty cycle am i looking at here?)

primary, it'd be +$7 for shipping to canada.
i can help you out with getting it ready for the coleman host.

according to graphs, 300mA is about as high as you'd want to go with these diodes.

pm me if you still want it.

alright!
as long as it won't burn out and explode in my face too quickly.
