Search. I mean seriously - all the information you need is on page 1 of the forum.

it depends on which diode is inside that particular drive. When you open it up find the number on the sled. If it says PHR-803T it is the more powerful diode that can go to about 120mW or maybe more. If it says DT-0811 or something like that then it is the weaker diode. There is a graph on the first page of the 'XBOX 360 HD-DVD high power laser' thread I think that shows you the power for a given current.
