WTB: "50mW" NewWish Laser

[styropyro]

I'm looking to buy a 50mW rated or higher NewWish laser. The laser can mode hop or not put out near the rated power, the laser diode inside is what has to work. If you have one you're willing to sell, give me a price and if I like it I'll take it off of your hands. If nobody has one they are willing to sell I'll just pick up an Edwina from KD (which is probably what I'm going to have to end up doing anyway! ;D)

That's shipped right? (I saw in other posts where you offered that laser for $15 shipped : ) I thought you said the diode was blown on that laser, if there is some way that we can prove that the diode is good and not an LED I'll take it off of you.

Anybody know of a way that Wes can find if the diode is good or not?

yeah 15$ shipped usa. I have no idea how to tell. sometimes,when u turn it really quick on,it will be green light for like 2 seconds hen it goes to a dim red which is the ir.

Hmmm, that sounds like the crystals are out of alignment, if the diode was dead there wouldn't be enough 808nm to get the crystals to lase. (Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong!)

Can you see the dot of red on something like paper in dim conditions?
