Some questions about 200MW Laser [New Style]

[Mexawy]

Hello
First i want to know which driver used in this laser and how Ma is driving at
also
can i replace my dvd diode with the diode in the laser ? if no then why ?
Thanks

These "Dildas" (old or new style) use an unregulated driver, meaning the mA changes somewhat in proportion to the input voltage (hence the 240+ mW results people are getting using 4.2v RCR2's in them) ...

As to the diodes, they're both 5.6mm but you'd be far better off buying a LOC or LCC red diode (or even the entire sled) through the forums for $12-15 and using that as a replacement IMHO, far less hassle and although Dave pushed his dilda to 400mW+ at just over 12VDC the LPC's, etc have a far more established track record and far more accurate info is available on them.

Thanks for this great information
but what is LOC or LCC diodes? where i can find them
these diodes are Different from the normal diode from dvd Rw right ?

There is many webshop that sell them.

Long closed can or long open can is what they mean. They are the better performing diodes which are commonly used and are common in DVD RW's. Some sleds like the LG bluray 6x come with a long closed can LCC. This same diode is found in the dilda.

Not to threadjack but "administrator" your name is very deceptive and as Ben said highly inappropriate.
:banned:

Deceptive? lol, administrator just so happens to be my favorite login. If there was a problem with it, I dont think it would have been availible. Considering you are the one dangling the 'banned' smiley, perhaps you are angry you didnt think of it first?
