I am curious to why you bend the posts into eachother like that? I know you’re doing this to protect from ESD but that method also moves the posts within the diode and could lead to diode failure. I’m not sure where to buy them, but there are these small plastic/metal pieces that do the same...

I’ve gotten a bunch of diodes from AliExpress and that looks like someone etched the original “QR-code” to keep from identifying the diode.. I’ve seen this done to NuBB23 diodes and some other NUBMO-5W blue Nichia diodes. The marking in the center is a mini QR-code, which is most likely used by...

I knew the G-Ball was a G2!! But I think it has some AR coating ? Haha I was looking at it the other day and I saw the same rectangle output on the bottom of the beam spot. Good to know thanks man! Also, I emailed you regarding those drivers

My bad man, those have been there since i signed up. I’ll take them down. I honestly didn’t even remember I did that.

Here’s some of my work.. I’ve built about 20 lasers at this point, and I’m working on copper heatsinks that will have 2-3 TEC plates installed within slots made in the backside as pictured. I also have “retrofit” high speed 8.4V fans that clip on the heatsinks and they allow for stable output...

Hey I’ll take you up on that offer!! Haha I’ve got some projects underway and plans implementing TEC plates installed within slots in the heatsinks and high speed fans on the outside.. I’ve purchased over 60 TEC plates and I’ve done quite a bit of testing with drivers to find a proper power...

Another question, have you tested the NUBMOF and similar collimated diodes before removing the ball/can? I’m curious how much that ball actually reduces output? I was playing with a NUBMOF ball diode the other night and the collimated output is pretty much spot on unless you want to pointlessly...

Also, it’s only us 3 in this thread lol if they see me and J side by side, it’s not a competition. He’s a vet. If anything it’s more of an advertisement for him.

Besides this post, I’m not someone who does that kinda stuff.. I’ve been on a ton of different forums and I understand the rules, I get it. And yes, I’ll take a donor badge. I made the donation in February or March? Do you need my email to check ?

Anywho.. I’m still a big fan of the Osram PLPT9-450LB-E diodes. They come brand spanking ne Anywho.. Im still a huge fan of the Osram PLPT9-450LB-E, since they are brand spanking new and they produce a very nice blue hue. You can’t go wrong for the price! But I’m def ordering a couple...

If I were you, I would invest in a electric duster, works well to remove any fine particles that can scratch the lens when wiping. I grew up as a glazier in SoCal, I’ve been around glass since I can remember, 30+years. 99% alcohol works very well after a high pressure dusting has been done...

All I said, is that I DID sell lasers. I don’t even say where I’m selling them or any details man, it was in response to me buying drivers and heatsinks from J.. I’m not avoiding your warnings, nor did I attempt to sell anything to anyone after I got your message. But FYI, I did make a donation...

And that NUBMOF with flat lens is killer!! I was getting almost 10W with 5.2A and a G8 lens.. I can’t wait to see how well it does with my copper heatsinks and TEC/fan combo.

Yeah man! I sold 10 lasers in the last 20 days! I really need more 20mm and 17mm drivers asap! Please let me know if you have them in stock? I saw an old post saying you had the 2-5.5A in 15-17-20-22mm? If so please DM me cuz I need to get them asap. The Convoy 17mm 6V/5A boost driver is...
