Hi BenMWV,
That host is a Defiant pen led light, they discontinued them months ago. But there is another pen host thats better to modify its a Husky led pen and takes two 10440 lith- ion cells . I built these with 450,520,638, 660nm diodes and all are awesome builds. Enjoy.....

Just received my first pen laser! About time

It's output is basically the equivalent of a 303.

Hey EP, enjoy! :beer:

 

[ElectricPlasma]

Thanks BowtieGuy & Lifetime VV, It's the same if not below a 303 output, maybe ~50mW. Here's a shot next to a 303 (it's 532nm dpss btw):

Where did that shiny one come from EP?
By the way, thanks all for keeping this thread alive

Hey thanks P-man, good old Fasttech will do you good! Picked this guy up from there for around 15$ IIRC.

Dr. Laser, that's a great looking, extensive collection of pens you've got there; very nice. Thanks for sharing!

I love the way some guys organize the collections.

Very nice

Did you know skytech lasers is having a clearance sale. Because of this, I am tempted to buy a 80mw 450nm multimode driver pen. Right now it is actually cheaper than laser btbs single mode driver(I belive) 80mw pen. what do you think of this pen? Thanks!

 

[Pman]

Those Skytech pens look nice. Looks like they have the blue and green left.

Man, where have all the pen lovers gone?! Does nt anyone have anything to add since 7/7/16!!!!!

I got extremely lucky a few months ago. I had one of the original 650nm Radio shack pens but it didn't work anymore Few months ago while I was helping my dad look through some drawers I found one in good condition and it actually works! Not home so can't post it yet.

Hey Pman,
I still have my working Radio Shack LX1000 650nm pointer I got in 1997. On a good day it may get to 2mw. As far ask pens go I got one of the last Laserbtb 450nm 60mw pens last year in white. I think I have used it a total of 10 seconds to make sure it worked and haven't touched it since.
