My First Build :D

[Don't Laze Me Bro]

Well I just finished my first ever laser build! it is a PHR running at 135mA on a RCKSTR (Is that right spelling?) with a layrob 405-G-1 lens This is just a build out of boredom, as I am takeing it apart soon to send to flaminpyro to have him put my 8X diode in.. I dont yet feel safe messing with a diode that big This is an ehgemus custom host that takes 3 cr123a batts, so I made a spacer to take the place of the third batt.

Im very happy with this little laser at ~230mW on full charge, now the pictures!!!! :na:

The host:

Host from the fromt:

Laser ON!

Beam shots:

MORE beams (Incent used)

Difraction gratings (THANKS GLENN!!!)

And power:

I will be sad to take it apart, but this just means I will have to re-build it in another host :eg:
let me know what yall think!
and thanks yobresal for the host and lens!

:thanks:

230mW PHR! Amazing, not to mention that host looks like it was made for that color laser, its beautiful

Im in the same situation.

BOTH OF YOU: Just do it! get a rckstr, phr, and a cheap host and H.S. and go for it! It is one of the best feelings when you make your first laser

Terrific build! :gj: But, how can you dismantle your first build? I don't think I could do that.

I am going to put it in another eghmus work of art, but I gotta put my 8X in this

230mW on a phr is that really possible? Great job on the build.
oh yah you spelled my name wrong.

Yup, and this laser is living proof, I KNOW I KNOW! I can never remember how to spell it... or say it for that matter, let me go fix that OK I only missed the E not too bad I am going to want another one of your fantastic hosts for this laser assembly. gotta love your work!
