noob wanting mod ideas?

[kaponolani]

Ok so I recently got into lasers but have no clue what I'm doing...have read up some but am more of a do it to learn person...

Anyways, I have a laser/led pen and am just wondering if there's anyway to mod said pen or any ideas... specs are...630-680nm...<5mW...classIIIa...4.5V

I am doubtful but curious

We need a lot more info. Photos and URL to the pen for starters. Actual wavelength might be useful (not a range).

True enough will find url to it

Tradewinds Products 3-Function Light and Laser Pen | Walgreens

Best link I could find lol...

Anyways, nothing special but was wondering and will post a better picture when I get to an actual computer...phone won't post?...

You might actually find that relatively difficult to mod. The diode in it now probably can't handle any more than it's doing already. Plus, it's probably not a diode can pressed into a module, but rather a diode mounted right on a PCB.

You will need to do a lot more research and reading...
The question of modding Lasers has been asked and
answered hundreds of times before...

I would suggest that you save up your $$ and buy a
higher powered Laser rather than wasting your time
trying to Pot Mod a $1.61 Laser...
