Rare 40mW 635nm Sanyo - Micro Build - $99 Shipped

[Helios]

It runs on a 10440 Li-ion. The driver is an Odic Force.

The heat sink for this build is tiny but the low power makes it more than adequate. It is all press fit so I cant take it apart and I forgot to take pictures before I assembled it unfortunately but I converted the host into a positive ground and fit the driver, module and contact spring in the head

Action Shots

Next to a 250mW LOC. Its amazing how bright it is at only 41mW!

Beam shots

Compared to a 260mW LOC you can see its a bit more orange and amazingly bright for being less than 1/6 as powerful.

This is by far my favorite build I've ever done. Clean, solid, awesome extinct diode!

$99 Shipped conus with tracking.

Interested... What kind of diode is that exactly?

Is it the same as available on Modwerx?

 

[Fenzir]

they're the 40mw sanyos that were on ebay, but there aren't any left

I'd be interested, but I'm waiting to see how the other bargain 638nm diodes turn out...

It is a Sanyo rated at 40mW. Some have driven them up to 80mW. 40mW will give it long life and keep the wavelength within tolerances. This diode is no longer made but there are some available for $200+ (just for the diode). Modwerx are only 7mW last I checked.

100$ for a 41mW 635nm is Awesome.

Who ever gets this is one lucky person.

Wish I bought some when they where available. I dont know why i dint. I Kills me every time i think about it.

 

[Extrion]

I'll take it, incoming PM.

 

[Helios]

It is actually sold pending payment.

I always sell stuff within the first few hours or even minutes :thinking: maybe I need to charge more haha.

 

[Extrion]

Dang it, I always miss the good deals, if it falls through I'll still take it though :yh:

 

[InfinitusEquitas]

^^^and if that falls through... I'll take it

 

[Helios]

Anyone want it if all three of you fall through? :crackup:

 

[jakeGT]

Me!!!

 

[Fenzir]

4 way fallthrough standing by.

 

[blue bumblebee]

WOW
you have a "waiting list" of FOUR people!
you should really bump up the price a bit

 

[Fenzir]

or maybe sanyo should make some more!

 

[InfinitusEquitas]

Mostly it was just some fun lasering last night, that made me realize I really want to see more wavelengths... a 200mW build would be great, but pretty expensive so for now I'm definitely not doing one, but this... it's a steal to see a new color IMO. (New to me.)

 

[Burnsy]

Got it today and it's so nice, really different from my Dilda but seems almost as bright

I'll do a review about it sometime if ur okay with it?
