Warm diode, turn it off,
And I'm leery, did it get to hot,
Loathing, batteries need charged,
So I sit some, and chief away,

Diode, to hot,
Heavy 'bout everything but the output,
Diode, Sanyo,
I miss my favorite laser pointer a lot,
I miss my favorite pointer a lot,
I miss my 505 a lot,

Just wanted to move some photons,
Hey you said you would, love to try some,
Hey you said you would, love to dpss some,
In the middle of an electric wave, perpendicular to a magnetic field,

You're a laser beam,
You're a laser beam,
You're a laser beam,

Diode, Nichia,
Heavy 'bout everything but the output,
Diode, Osram,
Sharp even makes some good ones,

Diode, burnt up, oh no,
I forgot my ESD,
I forgot my ESD.
I forgot my ESD,
How the heck did I forget my ESD,

Switched it on, self esteem took a dive,
Reversed current, busted driver,
Burning wires, blackened lungs,
And I'm simple, I screwed this build up,

Diodes, Osram,
Heavy 'bout everything but output,
Diode, Nichia,
I burnt up another build,
I burnt up another build,
I burnt up another build,

Gotta remember my ESD,
Gotta remember my ESD,
Gotta remember my ESD,
Gotta remember my ESD,

I miss that 505 a lot,
I miss that pointer a lot,
I really miss that diode, a lot.
 





Laser beam in the night air.
Laser beam with secrets to share.
Hidden moisture in the sky.
Hidden moisture way up high.

Particles dance in your beam.
Beauty of it makes my soul sing.
Florescence in the foliage below.
Another secret I now see glow.

A gazillion photons of silent light.
Focused into a beam so tight.
A gazillion photons do not stray.
Absorbent material in the way.

Such amazing physics in my hand.
So much I still don't understand.
Laser beams with a future so bright.
Laser beams bring our world to light.

now we need one about dpss!
REQUEST ACCEPTED. Idea loaded into cranial cavity, processing. This may take a moment, you can shut your monitor off and use other programs during this time. Please do not shut off your pc, critical processes are running in the background. Calculating time until completion ???%
 
It's not over, New Crystal

By The Naked Space Monkeys ( The NSM)



My tears run down like razor blades,
I know I'm not the one to blame, It's MGO,
Or is it zinc based,

An all the crystals bring me out to play,
It's DPSS an I'm not ashamed,
With hundreds of crystals to pick from, I'm not playing games,
There so many things you can do,

It's DPSS, DPSS, OHH Diode Pumped Solid State,
WE have the chance for an infinity of wavelengths,
It's a green or is it blue, maybe it's a yellow,
I wish I had lots more cash, So many crystal options,

I lose myself in all this light,
I lose myself in coherent might,
I cry, I cry,

Shaking from the joy that's in my lab,
I just want to strip down,
An dance naked around this huge contraption on the table,
But I'm not in my garage, I'm not in my garage,

But it's diodes, it's lots of diodes, ohh so many diodes,
We collimate them in our hearts,
Evil scientist in thought,
The Death Star was really just a giant 808,

I'm blasting a garnet rock, a fu@k'n rock,
So many photons, coherent photons propagating,
We're blasting heart shaped rocks, Ruby rocks,
I can do it over and over, but it won't laser forever,

I'm blasting a rock, Blasting crystals and rocks,
Don't say this won't last forever,
Phase shifting, it jumps, I've overheated my crystal,
Don't tell me it blew up from to much power,
I could do it over and over, I could blast it forever,

It's not over, It's not over, Aww crap it's over,
I shouldn't have use 500w,
It's not over, It's not over, It can't be over,
Unless you break it,
It's not over,
I've got internet mail order.

i Fucking love This!

You said you lost your 505 due to esd? I have a spare one that I don't need it really. with a driver, no lens in a copper module, 30$ just for you.

That sounds like a deal to me good sir. I have since, made sure I wear my collars. LOL. Would you mind waiting till the 15th? My next pay day.
 
My first build I hold with glee
Turned it on but it LEDed
My first one worked, got me head strong. The second one went really really bright for like 2 seconds, then just a speck of light. That's when I learned to never guess the pot is close enough. Always check it with a dummy before soldering in the golden child. LOL. I still have this diode somewhere. I opened it up and used my laser focusing glasses to look inside of it after I gently took the can off.
 
Those 505nm diodes may be case negative, case positive or the case maybe isolated. I don't know if this is an issue for you, but it may be worth considering. Good luck to you.
 
Mine is case pos and it's a beautiful emerald green color, also a nice tight single mode beam.
I love the greens. love love love love love love love the greens. An when they are in fat beam modules, OH MY GAWDZ, I LOVE 'EM EVEN MORE!! So far 505 is my fav. I want some higher up in the scale though. I like to beam them across the ceiling at night when I get home from work. Very relaxing to see them all streak across the ceiling. Few puffs of the fog machine, and ahhhhh time to unwind for the day.

I was playing with my fog machine in the backyard at around 3 am on Saturday. 3 shots of it, and I heard, " Where is all that smoke coming from, someone's house on fire?" So I stopped. I figured I was the only one up, so I was shooting lasers from the back of my yard to the house, through a layer of fog. The fog drifted between the house to the front side, and was making it's way down the street. I went up front and looked, BWUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Huge thick cloud rolling down the street, blocking out the street lights. I make my own super dense fog juice. Was quite the sight to see.

Good to know. That might be part of my mistakes. Now I need to check my spec sheets. I was thinking it was case positive, I may be wrong. So many diodes out there, gets a little confusing sometimes on which is which. This is my first year actually building them, vs buying, I've got a lot to learn yet. I've learned a lot too. One of the reasons I like this hobby, it's never ending learning!! I'm an addict for knowledge.
