I was reading at the time... and you were still wrong. :)

I'm not the one who brought it back up. Just posted some of my thoughts about WHO went overboard once it was......and didn't get negative repped for it. That just happened to be where you took offense. Might not have been anymore confrontational than your post was taken. And he didn't just end...

And so did those that negative repped him for defending his position. He was confronted with untrue prices and comparisons that made no sense, like "While the panasonics are no doubt great, they are overkill for a 50mW green laser.... A protected AW will do the just as well. Sochine and...

Re: Swim's NEW Overspec 5mW Pen Shop *IN STOCK* Make sure you have good, high quality batteries in it. What brand are you using? Kevin

OK which one of you caused this??? PHOENIX LIGHTS: Mysterious Light Flashes During Traffic in Phoenix?! - YouTube You guys are the first thing I thought of. :D Kevin

:oops: Yep mW. Duh. Hmmm. ok, if I'd have a 30% or so power loss but the resulting spot would be 30% or so smaller then then concentrated beam should seem as bright as the G-2 beam. So then I could save the G-2 for a 405 or 445 build by replacing it with this one for $20. Sounds interesting...

So, leaving the driver set for 700mA, I could probably expect an output of around 300mA? Thanks, Kevin

Well, a few monthes into this, is there any way to get a better beam from these in a handheld? I'm currently running mine in a handheld thru a G2 lens. It's set at 700mA and getting 490mW. I'm happy with the power but would be willing to sacrifice a little to get the beam focused. The only...

The FireDragon is not externally focusable.....yet. ;) If you take the shutter off you can spin the lens in or out though. Kevin

Re: Swim's NEW Overspec 5mW Pen Shop *IN STOCK* NO NO no no no!!!!! STOP! DO NOT USE 2 10440's!! If you run a 10440, you ONLY run one and use a dummy cell in place of the second batterry. It will still be over driving it at 3.7+ volts depending on how fresh off the charger it is. Even that...

Well from the looks of it I won't be needing my ND-3 Laser Designator! I was playing with a FireDragon and found that I now have two designators......and one's a LITTLE brighter :D My neighbors hate me. Or are intrigued by my flashing, dancing lights. :whistle: Kevin
