My friend has two ps3 diodes and i was just wondering in all of your opinions would it be worth it to take the time to build these ie. get a host and driver and all that jazz........i mean it would be my first build and i kinda wanna burn stuff with it but I would like to just get a SUCCESSFUL build under my belt
 





They make great low powered pointers, their max current being ~40mA, so you won't be burning anything, maybe if you had a magnifying glass and were steady and patient. You can get a prebuilt '5mW' (all I've seen have been overspec by quite a bit, hence the ' ') but it wouldn't provide the satisfaction of your own hands putting together the laser. I say go for it! Welcome to LPF and be sure to post pics when you're done if you go for it!
 
cool thanks man since i got the diodes it should only be like another 50 or 60 right i mean i am going to do all the foot work but figured u would know
 
Much less than $50 if you build your own driver, and buy one of Moh's hotlight kits for like $20.
 
Sorry, I am not used to a fourm this nice .......................search that finds what u are looking for!!!!!!! WOW.....No, it dose really kick ass. Thanks by the way
