Ok...who tried to stick a laser diode in...

[Gadget]

Who tried to stick an LD in this rock? You know very well rock is not a good thermal conductor!

Yeah, but that's not a rock, it's a potato, and as we all know, potatoes are a great thermal conducter, besides when it gets heated up, you can just eat it! :crackup:

Edit: That "rock" may belong to this guy, he's looking to heat a rock with a laser!

:crackup: Sorry guys,

I didn't know if the diode needed earthing or not! And then I hit rock bottom.

BowtieGuy, I wonder if he was aiming to close with a NUBM44 and then this happened. :thinking:

Somebody should plug it in. E.T. phone home?

@Curtis "it was me"

Ps. BtG, remind me never to let you build a laser for me. ( just saying ) :crackup:

 

[CurtisOliver]

Bob, lol.
Now what would happen if it was found that rock was the best solid state medium. And also it generated a powerful 580nm beam? :shhh:

I'd want it in a hand held.

:crackup: Handheld?
When a bulldozer struggles to move your laser, you know you went too far!

Can I get a second opinion?

(And maybe a third? )

 

[CurtisOliver]

Alright, you can never go too far!

 

[BobMc]

Alright, you can never go too far!

But we can always try

 

[CurtisOliver]

Lol, now if we can make a rock into a laser. Imagine what we can do with the moon.

:crackup:

I'm In !

Ps, doing the mAh test on a 16340 now, it may take a couple of hours. Will post the results when I get them. op:

 

[CurtisOliver]

That's two for the giant moon rock laser. Anyone else?
I'll be waiting for the results.

Will it pop a balloon?

Will it pop a balloon?

That's to funny!!, :thanks: for the :crackup:

 

[CurtisOliver]

Something tells me it might Radim. :crackup:
