Both of my diodes are in the modules, rckstr drivers preset at 114mA, heatsinks are machined and ready for final assembly into my Shinp DL22 4-scanner system, But I have one last question RE powering the diodes.
I have been running the 2 diodes off of a 9vdc/300mA "wall wart", but I also have a 6vdc/300mA type which would fit in the case with basically NO modifications (to use the 9v I would have to install an input jack and run the power supply externally, it's just too big for the case) - would this be OK? the actual output of the power supply is 6.4vdc tested with a DMM - I'm OK as long as I put at least 5v into the drivers, right?
Probably sounds like a dumb question, but I've come too far here to screw something up now. Thanks in advance for the help!
