GB: PL450B SM diodes - CLOSED

Re: GB: PL450B 3.8mm blue Single Mode diodes, 37$ each

I used a moh linear that was too long for the little hosts too on my first build.. it ended up working out but was a tough one to build..

I used a too-long driver in my second build (PHR), I went without the pill and ended up in a high-stress situation with the battery; I suspect that's what killed it... since then I don't play anymore without a body-supported battery contact board

yes I have been there too with long springs they often short on the barrel.. so do the long drivers. I killed a couple diodes that way too...

Kiz, I pronounce you guilty of reckless Diode-icide.

That's an impressive diode graveyard you got there Kiz
I'm not sure if I should be proud or ashamed that I've killed "only" four diodes so far

So... where would you put a 19x10mm linear driver?

What is the cut off for this group buy? I might jump in.

The PL450 is my favorite diode of all time.

10440 host with microboost...

That's a neat build! who made the heatsink?
Cutoff is when everyone who got into round1 has paid up: so far three out of seven have paid.
You're very welcome to jump in
I've re-opened the spreadsheet for editing (no worries guys, I have backups on my machine for authentication), take a look at it and add your details

Really only 3???!!!!
Get your shit together guys!
Pay up so we can get this order going. Those who have not paid are delaying everyone's diodes. Personally this is my first single mode 450nm so I am pretty excited about it.
Also Dyeote, you need to set a cut-off date. After that point if payments are not received those people are out of the GB. (I will pay the difference if there is any and pick up their diodes on my order and reissue them to those who come in later wanting one)

Personally I am not in a rush, but I do agree with what you say in principle, and also share your excitement re: first SM blue.
cheech226 has PM'd me that he will pay on Friday, I will poke the other three that still need to pay.
I will also set a cut-off date: Wednesday, the 1st of August

I'm sure Mr T warne made that himself! Very crafty he is! I won one of his hosts on a fund raiser and it was super nice work...

Nice little host.. let me know if you have a spare you want to sell.. Looking again it'a a 10440! yikes that is tiny!

:crackup: I had a feeling it wouldn't be long before me and Kiz started fighting over some pretty little host :na:

Re: GB: PL450B 3.8mm blue Single Mode diodes, 37$ each

Eh I'm still looking for 14500 hosts.. because I have 6 batteries to do something with allthough I could buy a couple 10440's if the right host became available...
