Hello everyone, my name is Paul and i live in Melbourne AUS. I have just finished my first build, adding a 445 to my collection. Its set at 900ma - dont know the output since i dont have a meter yet but i'm guessing its close to 900mw?? thanks to jayrob for supplying this great little host

(so easy to put together even for a beginner like myself, took about 10 minutes) and thanks to daguin for supplying the LD. here are some pics of my toys...
the 900mw (approx??) 445 and a 450mw greenie from ebay, using some smoke to get better beam shots in daylight. sorry about the poor quality photos, i had to try take them without exposing my eyes to the reflection, i have no safety goggles for the 445 yet...
Also can someone please explain why in a few photos and most videos of the 445 it appears blue, but in most photos and to the naked eye it looks purple?
Oh and i'm not sure if you can tell from the photos but i have the clear glass cover that came with the original host installed to prevent dust going into the lens, i'm guessing this might drop the output a few mw? is there any other problems that could arise using this?
