Hi Folks ,
Anyone know how to connect 2 lasers in 1 host only and then make them work both?

Here's a link to Rick's dual diode build. You might be able to get a idea or two ?
Thx BobMc,
Nice video, but that's not what I'm thinking of!
What I see in the video is too complicated for my capabilities!
I intend to insert 2 12x45mm modules complete with 1.5w each in order to get 3w totals! that's all !
Is there some photo guide here?
Your welcome, don't know of any photo guides or build threads on a dual diode build. But try the search bar at the bottom. You might be able to find one. Best wishes.
Rick Trent just mounts a PBS at the end like so:
As for the wiring to the driver, i'm no electrical expert. But I pretty sure someone can help on that side of things.
Not sure how involved you want to get, but this is an interesting guide from Arg on combining multiple diodes.

Hi Curtis glad to hear you , Yep , i watch before this video up on youtube , BobMc take me this link ! but i'm not capable to build this mechanism much compless !
Bowtie i like this guide ! but for now i haven't the little mirror for collimate many beams together.
Anyway Thx so much guys ! cheers :beer:
Combining two laser beams isn't hard. Getting them into a working pointer, a bit more complex. I suggest you work in lab form first so you can get an idea of what you are doing.
What diodes are you hoping of using?
1.5W Nichia 405nm x2 ,yep maybe it's good take a single diode like 6w+ with max peak 7.4W !
