Thanks for the fast reply. +1 I thought the thick lens was for beam correction prior to focusing lenses. I read back many posts and didn't see why but I didn't want to seat the 9mm until I knew more.
Do I mount that big ass lens into a focus assembly instead of the other available lenses? Does this diode exhibit the "fold back" in power as current increases?

Mike you want to bin this diode. You might get a beast for efficiency you might not however as these have substantial cost you want what the diode will be at its most happy for current set.
You will notice while binning a drop in current vs power output so yea that's the fold back as you put it. I have three builds one was very efficient the other on par with others here.
