Hi there, I'd really like to see pics of some labby builds some of you laser craftsmen have built. I'd like to build one with a TEC,fan, temp monitor, key lockouts.... etc for my new red 350-400mW.

I'd like to get some inspiration.
Pics and construction details please! Share your Hi powered labbys please!

Thanks.

Those would be a good start. If you're going for TEC, condensation will be your main enemy. The benefit is big with red lasers though, as lowering temperature will shift wavelength down a bit resulting in a more visible beam for the same amount of power.

Hmm, that would be nice.
Unfortunately there seem to be no shops that stock TECs for over clocking here in korea and modding anything is a pain in the ass.

So I have my laser diode module and no proper heat sink. I have a mini circular fin variety that was given to me but it won't allow more than 30-40 secs without getting very warm.

I need to mod a PC heat pipe brick or something.

???
