No light

Hey i got a laser not to long ago then just suddenly it just stopped working. Changed the batteries and such but nothing even lights up in the diode. I think the diode just blew but i only had it for 2 days, any help?

If it is really a dead diode, there is nothing you can do. You can check every connection in the laser AND check it for shorts, but a truly dead diode cannot be brought back from the dead to its former lasing glory.

Peace,

Your LD is dead man... or maybe something blocks your electrity from the batteries inside your laser...but I dont think so
