This might be a good deal except that they are limiting the current to less than 500 mA, so the pump diode is probably a 500 mW one and the 100 mW claim is probably over rated. If they used a 1 watt pump diode I might actually get interested in it.

Has anyone payed attention to this part?

5x NICHIA NUBM06 445nm 160W Laser Bank/Blue Laser Diode With PCB

I wonder what device is it for (or from)? 5 blocks on a single board.

Definitely for a projector, i would love to know which one though!!

It could have been a damaged unit as to buy them new you would lose money.

I would love to find a high lumen economy unit with that much light engine, but I doubt it, 10 of those diodes would run an economy 3500 lumen unit with 1 red led, this has to be out of a bigger unit, probably from a damaged unit.

NOW this 08 says tin pins, so it either came with a board to be used by an OEM or it's a pull, the lens looks different, maybe it's the angle?

NOPE It's the same lens, these diodes should be 20 dollars or less as they are handicapped, some of the 06 have a pretty good lens, but this 08 was awful, the spot was 50mm x 75mm at 5 meters.

The seller of the five bank PCB claims these are new and never used. I imagine it was made for a particularly large projector. My guess is this is the only one since they don't say anything about quantity.

could this be a 471nm diode am thinking if its a 471nm it could be pushed to 480nm ?

The data sheet states the wavelength is 455nm to a maximum of 471nm. It is typically a 465nm diode and I doubt it can be pushed anywhere near 480nm.

They " NUBM08 " are a lighter blue than our 445nm classics, but nothing like the NUBM07, also there's that problem with removing the lens and its flashlight like output, I had the idea of popping the lens off 1 diode and affixing it to the intact duplicate to reverse the beam back to it's emitters size output, possibly trimming the end of the can so our G2 can get in tight on the sweet spot....do you think it would work?

Speaking of 470nm... Not sure if anyone noticed, but DTR just dropped his price on 07Es to $85. I'd consider that a deal

Wow, your not kidding
even the NUM44 and M01T is down about $10. Seeing a nice trend going....

Good deal, I'm just getting ready to order one; as they say, timing is everything. :yh:

@ Curtis, be sure and let us know where you find those "cheap" 488's.

You know if the idea of getting a 488nm laser is eating at you, there are still single line argons out there. It is a very nice aquamarine color.

Yeah but I want one over 50mW in the size of a pen or a small flashlight host that runs on one or two 3.7V li-ion batteries

BowtieGuy, will do.
Paul, I have an argon but this is one wavelength I wouldn't mind being a little bit more portable.

Yep, you read that correctly, that's a HeNe in a pointer. Not something you see every day, not something that's made anymore of course.
