ok heres the break down. i saw the youtube video on the minimag laser burner. Went nuts when i saw it. looked around and found this forum (awsome by the way) found a website called edmundoptics and looked for a laser diode saw a sharp 654 nm 10mw diode for $25.00. ordered it. got it in . put it in the flashlight and the thing barley lights. then posted in mod section for help and someone told me that the laser i ordered is to weak that i need dvd burner laser. I thought what i ordered was one. i have no idea what im doing. can someone take my hand and guide me.
all i want is to get my maglight to burn stuff. it looked so nice in the video and now i searched ebay for dvd lasers and theres stuff the doesnt make any sense to me. the only thing i found that i dont even know if it will work is from STONETEK. they have a sony 16x assembled in a axis module for 26 bucks.
i did a search for a green laser diode. nuthing i keep getting already assembled laser for like 200 bucks!!! i would like a green one if possible. someone shed some light my way. Im walking into walls overhere!!!
thanks guys.
P.s i looked in the search bar also but u gotta kinda know what ur reading and diode,driver, nm, mw. could all mean the same to me i have no idea
