Imma chargin mah lazer!

Literally

Just did this out of pure boredom.

Even wired the original LED to come on green. Has a simple toggle switch mounted in the side.

Direct driven with a 5.6 ohm 10W sandbar, and it's just a boring short die open can diode. Not capable of any real power, so it's a pretty boring build.

I did this after discovering the circuitry of the original battery charger is complete rubbish, I wouldn't trust such a volatile battery on it!

If you shine another laser at the aperture, it might charge the battery

Probably wouldn't be able to get much heatsinking in there unless you had access to a mill, and could mill a custom shaped block of aluminium. There is a fair bit of space in there though, easily enough.
