What is a TO-18 package???

[amkdeath]

I bought this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&Item=130172360290&Category=53141&_trksid=p3907.m29


What is a TO-18 package? and when I bought it it said LOT 3, does that mean I get three diodes?

Thanks,
amk

From the auction:

Output power:200mw( 5.6Mm diamter)

It's a 5.6mm diode, like that GB red diode.

DATA SHEET:

Parameter: AL808T200
CW output power(Mw): 200
Peak wavelength(nm): 808+/-3
Spectral width(nm):[ch8804]5
Threshold current(mA):[ch8804]100
Operating current(mA):[ch8804]290
Operating voltage:[ch8804]2.2
Slope efficiency(W/A):[ch8805]0.9
wavelength temperature coefficienc(nm/[ch8451]):0.3
Beam divergency(deg):12/40
Emitting area([ch956]m):50x1
Serial resitance([ch937]):[ch8804]1.5
Lifetime(h):10000

Package: TO-18

I am just waiting for a diode with a wave length 0f 630~670 with all the above characteristics at the same price $10.00

UM, the first post is mine, that wavelength is 808 not 630
where did u find 630 or so for 10 bucks?

What I meant to say is I cant wait to they produce the same spec diode as you posted with a wave length of 630'ish instead of 808 for the same price sorry if I confused the issue

LOL okay, but one thing guys:

In one of the links above, there is a list of all the laser packages. TO-18 says it has one lead... not good....
But then it says 5.6mm diameter diode, which is like the GB reds...
I tried contacting the seller but he doesnt reply...

BTW, you can still faintly see 808nm, right? its like dark red right? thanks
