Make o-like 200mw new style dilda stronger

[ethicaldesign]

How can i make my 200mw new style dilda, stronger? I've heard of the lense upgrade. What about batteries?:gun:

there are a few answers to your question.

1. new diode (contact modwerx)
2. new lens (contact jayrob)
3. new driver/ mA increase (contact the search option) will shorten your laser life

You can get 3.6V cr2 batteries. When charged they will have a output of 4.2V.

I have a Meredith glass lens from jayrob. BIG difference with this lens upgrade.

I'm not sure the extra voltage of the batteries will give any extra output. I thought it just increases the heat output of your diode?

I think the current is what controls the photon output. I'm no driver expert but i think the driver will limit the current you can feed to your diode and unless the stock driver has a pot, your going to need a new one to increase output.

I am open to anyone who wants to tell me I am wrong.

You are quite right, however the dilda is an exception. The dilda isn't entirely regulated. So the current will increase with added voltage. It could be pot modded as well I believe. A high quality lens is the better route though.

My "new style" red Dilda output is the same with 3.0V or 3.6V batteries.

Maybe you're thinking about the older style, and the drivers are different?
