hey everyone my name is dylan and i am from florida.

i recently began researching alot about lasers on this forum. and appreciate all of the contributed information. it is really cool to be able to learn about anything you want on forums.

i have a few questions to ask for the ones i havent been able to find through search.

1. where can i find a cheap good quality esd safe soldering iron
2 is there a thread explaining in depth about the specifics of different diodes, i.e dpss, multimode, regular diode. ive got somewhat of a grasp but want to cement it in.

next on the list for me is learning depth about ohms law, and how resistors affect current and voltage, there is easy youtube videos to watch, probably as easy as a forumla

anyways i will be glad to be a part of this place

Welcome to LPF! While I'm not sure if there is a thread that specifically explains the difference between diodes, I do have some very informative links to pages that I got a lot of my knowledge from.

DPSS laser
Laser diode
Some info about single and multimode as well some other interesting info.

Besides the search on these forums, one of the best other references for almost anything laser related is:

Sam's Laser FAQ: Welcome Page

There is more on here than you can probably learn in your lifetime
