GB 20mW 635nm diode

[DJNY]

Nice! Did you make yours lase yet?

I´m waiting for my GLP host - also I donb´t think that I should risk it to build it myself :beer:

 

[Krogith]

+1 to you as soon as I can DJ.

I want a 60 too.... but $225, that's stabbing me in the back right about meow

the 60 mW Diode is 225$?? Or a 60 mW laser?

60mW diode. If it's a single-mode near Gaussian profile 635nm diode, that's not a a bad price.

I´m currently working on the ML520G55 listed here
Glyn - Laser Dioden

With a low current and good cooling a wavelength around 632-633nm is possible.

Look at the data sheet for more information on this diode.

Got my diodes, today. Thanks Phi!

 

[DJNY]

Great :wave:

 

[jakeGT]

look what I just got in the mail today everybody!

Just watch out when you cut open the little paper towel there in, one of mine popped out and I caught it midair

It was superman style

Thanks Phi!

LOL WUT

mail travels faster over the pond than it does to portugal.:banghead:
Maybe it went by surface- instead of airmail....:thinking:

 

[jakeGT]

now i need somebody to build this in a pen host for me, whose interested

 

[anselm]

Lemme see how my experiments with a cannibalized green fleabay pen work out.

 

[jakeGT]

cool, I'm still trying to figure out how I could pull this thing off. I have never done a pen build, and am kinda scared of attempting it myself

Hi DJNY,

Just wanted to say thanks. Got it in the mail today.

Got mine today. Haven't had em a couple hours and i fried 2 already now I'm gonna go take a break from building today.

That sucks! I feel for you. Mine just got here and now I'm kind of scared to play with it, I only got one.

DJNY: Thank you and good job on this GB! just about 3 weeks start to finish

F'CK! How'd you accomplish that? My condolences.
You know, just so that I don't do the same....:can:

Rookie mistakes the first one i hooked up reverse polarity and the second one i forgot to short the cap on the driver after i took it off the test load.:banghead:
