Hey, so the giveaway for the month of May will be a complete laser.

THE BUILD
As of now it will be a hotlight host, running off 2 cr123s. It will use jib's driver (which is set at 1.3A) and an a140. Optics is an AixiZ glass lens. Expect between 1-1.3W depending on diode efficiency.

NOTE:
The only thing that may change will be the host as the 2 cr123s arent the best fit in the hotlights. It may change to a cree c6 host with a copper direct press HS. I will let everyone know for sure when I actually get around to building it. So for now just assume it is a hotlight host and if it happens to change to the C6 then that is just an added bonus.

THANKS
I want to thank:
Flaminpyro (lens), SenKat_Stonetek (diode) and jib77 (driver) for their donations and helping me out on this one. :)

HOW TO BE ENTERED
To be entered in this giveaway you will have to donate a minimum of $10 to the forum (it is a full build afterall :)) You MUST donate via the Donate button on the forum, do not send the donation directly to Ave's PP that way I will be able to track the donations.
No matter how much you donate above $10 you can be entered a max of 1 time only.


I will cover cost of shipping to Canada or the US, anywhere else you cover shipping. (although it shouldn't be too bad)


first part is the meter test. SHould be a little higher (around 1300mW) as the whole beam was not on the head. 2nd part is showing 2 cr123 fitting in. The two i have do not work anymore and only produce a very faint light.

Re: 1W+ 445nm GIVEAWAY!

Just so you all know. These incentives are appreciated. I haven't donated yet, although I have planned to. (I've only been here for a couple of months)

I have really come to appreciate this place in such a short time and I would be forced to get a real life if something happened. That alone is reason enough to donate when I can. This just gives me more of a reason to do so. :)

Just given my $10 donation but not sure how it'll be tracked as my paypal address is different to my forum address. Perhaps someone can tell me?

I believe when you donate, you are signed in as your LPF ID, so Avery knows who you are regardless of your PP ID ;)
