PHR-803t into a DX 30mw?

[nitrodude150]

Hey i was wondering, my DX 30mW diode is practically dead, so I was wondering, could I put a PHR-803t diode in it and run it at 30mW? Or Do I need a different driver?

Oh to the noez ! You will def need a new driver. Those Green laser drivers run at like 300ma+ and that would like spell instant kill for the diode, even tho its so cheap nowadays. You will need a new driver,Which would most likely be the Lava drive as im assuming its a pen laser. And you can run that diode way past 30mW if you needed to know. Ask me if you need any more help.

a rkcstr driver will work also... but u will need to use 2..10440 batts, and for the v4 driver u can use regular aaa batts
