I've been collecting beamshots on my cell phone, so I decided before cleaning out my pictures I'll just post them up here.
WARNING: LOTS OF PICTURES
I know this isn't how others do it but I prefer to describe the pictures from above (description above image)
I'll start with the optical trapping;
Below is with an o-like 200mw waterproof. (notice the CPU heatsink/fan in the background)
This is my DIY PHR- labby in the old CPU heatsink.
The PHR , and a match stick smoking. Notice the hard disk in the background/left side of the image. They make the BEST free FS mirrors (So don't throw out your old hard drives!)
Pretty good red beamshot, considering this is a cell phone camera and without smoke. (with o-like waterproof)
On the left, LED shoppe 50mw green. Middle is the PHR labby. And on the right, the o-like 200mw waterproof.
Another primitive rainbow. (same lasers as above)
Goes without saying
This is a product of boredom. I used a couple of lenses to expand and recollimate the beam to ~1.5" diameter.
Then directed into a larger lens (from a binocular) achieving a nice conical shape. :wtf: I know, pointless, but still fun.
More 405nm? OK!
Modwerx build! Heatsink, A-130 LD, and aixiz module + glass lens all from Modwerx. Thanks!
Driver used is noob's best friend; the DDL on a breadboard circuit.
