I know the fame abour the WickedLasers but i bought one WL Artic 3.5w.

on the first day the laser was 100% but from the 30 min of usage something weird happen. (look photo one)
some dirty shows up and the laser is not rectangle anymore (445nm) there is a shadow below and arround the "dot"

1) i removed the colime lens (look the second photo) and even when i rotate the colime lens the dirty didnt move so
the dirty its not on the lens.

2) with my diode exposed i tried to locate the dirty but i cant see where would be.

Anyone knows what is this? dirty? bad diode?

any possible ways to repair?

If the full power of the laser is like that, maybe they were broken,
The diodes have been removed with a high risk of failure, if you leave a grain of sand in the P-N contact layer, the filament may be damaged

In case if you do not remove the laser and it is broken, you can complain to the seller, if the total use time is 30 minutes, it is normal, but if you run continuously for 30 minutes the laser will be broken
