Hey guys what’s up

[john_lawson]

Been a long minute but back to do some reading and catch up hopefully no one makes fun of me cause I’m pretty much a newb again

 

[BowtieGuy]

Glad to hear from you again, welcome back!

There are a lot of new diodes and wavelengths available these days.

Glad to see you back.

I’m alive yes built a few m140 445 units they rock

What’s the bad ass new diode out guys 9 mm style

 

[john_lawson]

Jerry. Sup and hi bowtieguy

What’s the bad ass new diode out guys 9 mm style

I mean 5.6 I’m lost nowadays

For my interests, mostly 9 mm has it for me these days, although this nearly short enough wavelength to be UV diode has a 5.6 mm diameter and produces a lot of power, but at 1.5 watts shifts more towards blue to 410-412 nm:

Hi Welcome back to the forum, many great diodes here now . The 9mm diode are many to choose from and others enjoy.

Long time no see, welcome back!

Welcome back, John. I do think I remember you. It depends on what you want to build as far as which diodes may interest you. I am more interested in wavelengths than output power, so I have been involved in testing many of the new Sharp diodes. I have a few from 477nm to 502nm.
