:bday::bday::bday: I love this laser and it deserves to get at least a little review! :bday::bday::bday:












The laser itself...
I got the laser from IgorT a few months ago. He cherry picked me a nice diode and built me one awesome laser. The RC-A2 is powered by one 3.6V AA (14500) Li-Ion battery and uses Jayrob´s 650-G-1.






















Laserpowermeter measurements...
I finally was able to take power readings with my new Laserpowermeter. Output is stable at 324mW @21.5° C air temperature







Media...


Popping a balloon the other way :cool:






Pics are taken with steam from the shower. My cam is not very sensitive with detecting the 650nm wavelength. In reality the laser is A WAY brighter :wave:












IgorT
i did use the best diode out of 9 IIRC
this is one of my best builts ever





Thanks for Looking! :)





2years later - still working fine as hell
