Dealextreme i hate you with a passion, want to crack on with my build but i cant because you still havent delivered the chuffing items. I would have probably been quicker to jump in a canoe & row over to asian & collect it myself. Great site loads of quality items but death would probably get to me before the delivery, very, very, very, very unhappy customer.

Sadly I've resorted to buying everything I ordered off DX weeks ago because I was sick of waiting!

I understand you! The day I received my M-140 module, I drove to the store. Bought solder and heatshrink! I made my laser! I still haven't received them and it's been a while now.

If you read the thread title, it says 445nm.

The driver from DX and the one you linked are the same. You can get the glasses you need from Survival Lasers as well. Look for the one rated for 190-540nm. Just be aware that these won't work for reds.

Testing a driver before connecting to a diode is needed to ensure you won't kill the diode. You need to use a test load. Use the search bar at the bottom of the page. Use the key words: "test load".
