They are a good company, and often run specials.

Make sure you use a heat sink for the module. A battery pack is a good idea.

But, there is nothing you can do to increase the power, other than buy a higher powered laser. The laser are binned accordingly to their optimum power output. You'll just kill it by turning up the power because its already at full power.

Its cheaper for them to do it this way. Pot modding is a thing of the past now.

I bought a 3AAA Battery holder now i got to figure out where to connect the red/black wires coming out of the holder

Do you think i can take the host from my old 300mW and put the greenies internals in it?
