Looking for a linear driver around 1A for a 500mW mit. If it were for myself, I'd just build my own, but I'd rather use a professionally backed driver as this is a laser for a client.

Re: WTB> Iron 4D 1050mA

Free bump
Are you looking for that specific driver because of its size?
You can't use a homemade 3xAMC driver (1050mA output)?

Good luck... :beer:
 
Re: WTB> Iron 4D 1050mA

I want it for the size, although I just remembered they are single cell drivers. Not I am looking for a linear 1A driver.

It's for a client of mine, so I'd rather use a professionally backed driver.
 
Just saw this. If you still need it I'll mail you an iron4D 1050ma. $10.
 
I'm sure I have the resistors to build you a 1A Mohgasm linear if Ben cannot help you out. Let me know, BP.
 
I could probably use the Iron4D and a spacer.

Only issue is heatsinking.

SBA, what's your quote for the Mohgasm?
 
Dude, it didn't cost me much. I just have to build it. How's about $10? I have one now @ 945mA. I could let you have it for say, $7 shipped.
 
Oh if you have a two battery host you really should go for a buck. On the mohgasm the entire second battery will go straight to heat! You would get over 2x runtime with a buck.
 
I'm just going to get the iron4D. They're probably my second favorite driver.

Sorry SBA :p
 
It's all good. I was just trying to help. I'm glad you have a more efficient option.
Good luck with the build.
 
Reliable? Problems getting them? o.o They are available from AnthoT's site, and each one is tested for functionality. I haven't received any complaints about functionality before.

I wonder how well the pots are tested. Sure, the driver functions. Adjustable? Not so much. A lack of any support doesn't make them an ideal option, nor is having to pay for another to replace it.
 
Lack of support? I'm always here! I try to support my drivers as well as I can. If you had a problem with the pots, shoulda just PMed me! I would have replaced the pot (if broken) with a resistor of your choosing =p
 
I did just that, on August 6, with problems on 2 different Blitz drivers. I never got a response back.
