Host is a S4 with a copper HS upgrade bought from SL
Diode is a 445nm M140 purchased from DTR
Driver(s) are 1.25a and 1.8a 16.8mm circular buck drivers from SL **NOTE**- if using a buck driver with this build, you will need two 3.7a batteries (rcr123 or 16430) inline. One single 3.7a 18650 will fit In the chamber and power the diode, but very very dimly.**
**I was running the 1.8a driver initially, but got relatively short run times as any heat at all made me apprehensive and I would panic and shut it off, so I switched to the 1.25a driver and can run the diode for >10minutes without much notable heat at all**
The video is very dry, but you get the gist of things.. The part 2 (beam shots and burning) is running the 1.25a driver.
