Green Laser Broke! HELP

[rangedunits]

shoes size?


Are they new?
Gotta buy a new skate errr

Yeah, it was lined up with the button. you could here the click when you pushed it.
and no, no light what so ever was being put out..

I guess it is broken for good.


As for the shoes, i will send you a PM.


On a sidenote, on Deal Extreme, they have 200mw lasers for like $70 or something. Anyone in the US have any issues ordering from them?

The crystals are probably ok and you could get a new pump diode.

Or for $20. you can just buy a new pointer :-X


That module looks identical as the one found in these. http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.7862

The front view of yours should be a clear glass lens, and no IR filter and no feedback sensor.

The brass module case is the negative terminal for those modules.

No, the spring is the neg, module is pos.
Have you tried wiring it up outside the host?

WOW I really shouldn't have made any posts yesterday. That's the second major typo I wrote.. :-[ :-[ It was a long day, for sure. Thanks for straightening it up for me rog8811!!

Alright, been a while since I posted or messed with the laser..

I just tinkered with it a bit, and it still doesn't work. When I click the button, and look directly down the laser hole or whatever, i can see a dim dim dim red light. no beam or anything, just a light.

i really want to get this thing to work.. helppppp

 

[potatorage]

The dim red light is the 808nM IR from the pump diode. You probably knocked the crystals out of alignment.

That red glow is the IR flooding out, IR can seriously damage your eyes, don't look down the hole at it please.......The pump diode on that thing could be puting out 200 to 300mw more than enough to leave you with a blind spot.
