Im always reading here about the Laser' behaviour at the Threshold current. that it can jump from LED to dangerous in just smallest turns of the pot. and even badder, with rising temperature it drifts.
Is there actually a chance to make this Diode stable at low powers?
I want a reasonable pointer, expecting 5-15mW. 50mW would be the absolute max i take!
Idea: setting it at 100mW and putting an OD2 in front, so -> 10mW. Will the filter sustand the 90mW it must dissipate for longer time?
