rkcstr driver: Rkcstrs Diode driver 7.5-12 volt input

these are a few anyone else have a few to name  :-?
open can diode can is open exposing the element
closed can : diode is in a closed can with a small opening or window
dilda : first seen on deal extreme  200 mw red cr2 laser
 





Open-can & Closed-Can
Dilda

Is this meant to clarify terms commonly used here to new members or just to list them?
 
Isn't there already a thread which clarifies all these terms? :-?

EDIT: yea it's at the bottom of the "basic FAQ's" sticky. however it does not have as many as i thought :P
 
How about lazbonics, Yo! man you beamed me.  You beammer you. Or don't laze me bro......... :) :) :) :) :)

I personaly like laserholics that one was well thought out...........

I'm still kinda confused  :-? about senkats diodes, that was before my time..........

the other terms seem ok.
{ It's to early must have caffine.}

PS. That food went through me like a laser is one my Grandfather use to use.....

Rant over! Josh.
 
[smiley=huh.gif] What about "pooled"? It has been thrown around a bit but the meaning eludes me.
LOL  8-)
 
There is a sticky but none-the-less...

PocketPal - predecessor of Jayrobs Pocket Mini
 
poor rkcstr...no matter how hard he tries his driver remains known asa a "rkcstr driver" instead of the Micro-Drive which is it's actual name
 
there are soooo many terms that we throw around. Like Dilda. Do you think it's gonna say "dilda" on the site? Hell no! I never really cared for the term Dilda anyway. Yes it looks like a dildo. But I preferred "Photon Phallus"

Who... cares? Does he care? Does he actually try to get people to say micro-drive? :-? In all fairness I think it's actually more flattering that it is named after him :D
