okay here is a host that i would LOVE to use for my first build. i haven't seen this used in any other build or anybody make a laser out of it yet so i want to and i really like it.
DealExtreme: $14.20 SmallSun ZY-A4 Convex Lens Cree Q3-WC LED 3-Mode 130LM Flashlight with Clip + Strap (1*18650)
i have a few questions though.
what all needs to be determined once i order and receive this flashlight to see if i can make it a host? i realize if it is able to be transformed into a laser that i would need a heatsink special made for it from someone like Mohrenberg or somebody else that could custom make me a heatsink.
what else entails transforming it into a laser though? i have never made my own build and i want to start learning, i have a driver and phr diode that i am experimenting with and trying to solder just to make into a little box laser just to try to get soldering diodes and wires and drivers and what not down
but what else would i need to do to make this into my laseR? im thinking a 300mW red if at all possible.
