It is hot in Fl so I have not been doing any builds... yea right:crackup: HaHa:na: I have been building, just more flashlights and not so much lasers, but I have put some time into these little honey's.
First is the little SolarStormSC031 from Fasttech. I really hated ripping this little guy apart as it was a sweet little light. I had to pull all the components off the stock driverboard and even swap out the momentary switch for one with a little more heft.
I used the Oclaro 638nm 120mW diode pushing it at 350mA using a Aixiz acrylic lens and polished focus ring that I had already laying around. I put as much copper as it would take in there and this little guy is solid for sure.:wave: I love this tight beam:wave:
Next up is the famous jayrob keychain mini, I dubbed it mini PGL it looks kinda like both IMHO:shhh:
I stuffed a 412nm binned diode that pushed over 840mW at 545mA This one is set at 450mA I have yet to test them as my desk is a complete disaster will uptdate soon.
I used a copper module and the heatsink is quite beefy as well. The little 10280 batt. gives about 10 or so 1 minute run times before a good sag, but this little guy is like getting stung by a bee.:eg:
I hope you enjoy these little guys I have some cool things comming down the pike, usual jander stuff TEC's, fans, and hopefully a RGB to show after winter.
As always get out there and build one and thank you:thanks: for looking.-jander6442
