There is some heiroglyphic on the back of the diode?
I'm sorry to hear that, Dan....
You people torturer!

flogged said:Actually, yes. The one 803T I got working I was not able to get a good focus on. It was elongated, strange. Also, my diode was funky. Something was loose in it and the output would jump often when I tapped it. It's possible I damaged the diode extracting it, however it's also possible these are somewhat damaged high power diodes which are still good for use as readers.
I tried both a single element Meredith lens (ldc10), and a three collimator lens assembly - was not able to get a good focus with either.
It's interesting, with the two 'low' power xbox diodes I harvested I was able to get a very tight focus in the spot (and speckly too), despite the spray. the higher power 803T had less spray, but I could never get a good focus with the spot.
I'm hoping it was a problem with my diode, I've got two more on the way.
I know I was just teasing and stalling for time :-/.climbak said:danq -
That heiroglyph on the back is a good sign you have the better diode. This is good news!

I did not kill my diodes. I just didn't have them connected right. ???thought I'd checked all ways but the brain was obviously the only thing in the room not operating as expected.
The only diode in the 360 sled is a DVD-Reader...Things said:Damn, and to think i have a Xbo360 sitting right here. Can't tear it for the diode though Being near the Xbox after seeing this is like being chained up infront of a truckload of free lazors :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
