my first bluray build

[bennett326]

hey,
this is my second laser i have built it is a phr-805t with a diy lm1117 based driver in the famous c6 with a diy heat sink.

i got my diode and module from modwerx

the c6 from dx (of course)

and the lm1117 from digikey my driver was pretty simple all i did was attach a 10 ohm resister and a ceramic cap to get a steady 123-125 ma

for my heat sink i simply took a piece of aluminum rod stock drilled a hole in it with my drill press and used thermal adhesive to add washers for the lip

NOW FOR PICTURES AND BEAMYS

when i re-sized the pictures online it put them in that attached folder and i don't now how to put each one as a thumbnail sorry...but still take a look i like them allot

thanks,
bennett:thanks:

Very nice. What do you think the mw output is on that? What are you using for Power? Any other pictures?

 

[bennett326]

sure i will upload more pics in a bit. i am using 2x cr123a lion batteries.

as far as the power output , i don't have a lpm but it is running at 125ma so anywhere from 80-110 mw according to some of the test that have been done on this forum

 

[freeloader700]

Ok cool. You have those other pictures yet?

 

[bennett326]

Did you use the DIY heatsink method with something like a pill? I remember I saw somewhere that if you use a phr or loc diode , you can skip a machined heatsink.

Guess I missed that part while quickly taking a look at the OP :yabbem:
Nice first build. My first one was a PHR-803T in a medium sized project box with a huge DDL driver in it. I didn't even used a heatsink :crackup: Some months ago I made a very small lm1117 based linear driver and was comparing the size of it to the first blu ray build :crackup: +1 to get you going
