My completed loc labby

[dieselmarine]

Here is my completed labby style laser. The rckstr driver is set @ 390mA and it has its own heatsink. I am using a Long Open Can diode, I have a mini cooling fan, vented port holes, green On indicator led. The cooling fan is running off of 2 CR2 primaries and the LOC is power by the portable Energizer cell phone charger.

Looks great.

What's the output?

 

[photonaholic]

did you build that?? Nice work!

<---- was expecting to see another boring radioshack project box labby.

That looks nice though! GJ

With all that heatsinking and cooling i bet you could run that diode at much higher current!

did you build that?? Nice work!

I sure did, Glad you like it

How high do you think i could run it @?

Good work, man. Your builds just keep on coming!


Keep it up, what's your next project?

I was thinking about a 7 colored laser, but then I thought instead of using a red, green, and blu ray, lasers I put in 3 8x diodes so when all 3 8x's are powered on the beam should be very powerful, but I'm no laser expert so maybe some thoughts from you guys will help.

thanks, Sarge

I'm not sure, I dont own a LPM yet, but i will be getting one real soon any recommendations?

It's always amazing to see some of the nice builds on here. With a little care, you have one that looks like a newer StarTrek phasor !!!

I like how you use different types of hosts for your builds, and not plain ordinary ones either. You may want to consider posting a pic of your "rainbow" in that thread (multimedia section).
