i looking for a RKCSTR Micro-Drive V3 adjustable driver (assembled) pre-set @ 100mA.if your interested to sell leave a massege.
:thanks:
 





If you need a rckstr driver, go to rckstr.com. He offers a discount to all LPF members. However your better off setting the driver yourself, that way you will know how to do it if you change diodes. His site has to information you need to set it and the documentation is very user friendly.

Hey RCKSTR, who makes your boards now, I have a idea and need someone to make me a board.
Thanks
 
Setting the current really only takes a minimal set of skills and tools, which I highly having (or learning) both before working with any DIY laser projects.

Anyway, rkcstr.nfshost.com works, it's just the direct host link. I purchased a domain, www.rkcstr.com, which you use now as well.

For my PCBs I use Advanced Circuits (www.4pcb.com). They're a US-based company, so its good for those in the states since shipping times are short and there is no language barrier. Prices are pretty good too, I think. I get giftcards for referrals, so if you decide to go with em, let me know before you make an account on their website so I can score a free dinner :)
 
what i do after attaching the driver to the multimeter?
how can i set the curent after attaching the driver?
thanks
 
Thanks for the info on the PCB manufacture, I will refer your name before I setup an account.

Have you looked at the instructions for the driver? They're available on my website under the decription, or you can download directly here. I tried to explain the procedure thoroughly, but you can ask questions if you have any.
 
i don't understand what it do after attaching the driver to the multimeter.anyone help?
 
If you have the driver connected to the multimeter, you power up the driver and read the current on the meter. Assuming you have the meter set to measure DC current (A or mA), you can adjust the pot on the driver until it measures the desired current.
 
You can use batteries or other DC voltage sources. The voltage of your power source needs to be at least 2.25V more than your diode's voltage, which for a blu-ray diode is about 5-6V, so you'll need about 7.25 to 8.25V for your power source.
