Got two 405nm diodes, one each from DTR and Survival. Installed both in C6 hosts. Both should be around 500mW to 700mW with one driven at 447ma (Survival) and the other driven at 428ma (Mohgasm), each with a G2 lens.
These are great lasers and they burn like hell, not like the 1.95W 445nm's of course, but burn well nonetheless.
I just don't like the beams and maybe that's caused by my old eyes, but they each seem as bright to less bright than a known 5mW 532. One I have metered, see my sig. The other I have not but will when I have a chance.
Just not feeling the love on the beam visibility. Great lasers though.
The 532nm's and the 445nm's will light up the night. Not so the 405nm.
Oh well.
