RPL-425 only outputs 25-55mW any longer

That video looks like an alignment or heat issue..

Run the laser through any lens, make the dot big..

You will see what I mean..

If it were the pump diode, it wouldnt be 'dancing' like it is..
 





I´ll do it tomorrow, it is 2.16pm here, time to go to bed and hopefully dreaming about a fully functional RPL-425.
 
Gl. Hope you get things sorted out. Im gonna track this thread should one of my greenies ever die.
 
Any news about the laser? Could you figure out, if it's the diode or an crystal alignment problem? Do you have an answer/offer from Jack?
Hope you can reanimate the RPL.
 
Truly sorry for you mate! I had something similar with my RPL 400. The output dropped to around a 100mw if I remember well. Jack offered a few solutions and since mine was still in the warranty period I got an upgrade from him an RPL 425 for little extra working fine since than!
Cross fingers for you to get the best possible solution!
:huh:





I was just ready to package and add some other stuff for member donprado who was ready to buy the laser from me.

I started a few testruns on my LPM and suddenly I saw a drop in output from ~400mW to ~190mW to 25-55mW, average 30mW!!! :wtf:
I thought that it was caused by the batterie, so I inserted two other 18650 batts.. but after a short start at ~50mW, the power continously drop to ~30mW, no output above 55mW any longer :(
I tried the adjustable tailcap, but with no success.

Hope it is only a small problem and I´m doing something wrong!



Thank you!!!
 
Thank you guys!

A forum member is currently checking it out, maybe it is only a little problem.

Jack was/is very helpful in this situation and already offered me a repair including explaining lot of details about the process.
