180!!! wow that is a little much! Aixiz Rkcstr Blu-Ray 405nm 120mA Laser Module [PHR-803T & Rkcstr Microdriver] - $59.00 : High Tech DealZ, Simplifying the LASER Hobby!
this is just few Mw less than yours and 120$ less expensive than yours - the casing, - the shipping and - the extra mw i say...

i made my driver using this guide!
but instead of 10mf 16v capacitor i used 47u(micro)f 50v
Thank you Asherz!
I just wanted the exact info on the driver since i could not find it anywhere!
And also my dvm is kinda small and doesn't show enough information!
So i just got my diode from kendall @ hightechdealz.com
And i built a ddl driver for it.
My question is, when i measure the voltage on my battery it is 7.7V, but when i connect it to my driver the output to the diode measures 7.2V. I dont know why this happens and nothing is shorted out. Also i...
i just bought this variable resistor(pot) and i am going to add it to my driver. can you tell me which two pins connect?
and i also bought an lm317t regulator and want to know where the pins go!
you can use paint to mark the pins!
any help welcomed!
thanks
Okay. so im going to an elecronic-parts store tomorrow and i have a list of things im going to buy for a driver.
100ohm variable resistor(pot)
LM317T regulator
2X 10ohm resistor
1N4001 diode
l.e.d(for testing)
battery clip
Switch
i have the circuit board and soldering iron.
do you have...
It's called Iceland because the guy that found iceland landed on one of the fjordurs and it was winter and he only saw ice!
The Icelandic word for Iceland is Ísland and Ís=ice and Land=land(duh!!)
and thank you all for welcoming me to this site:thanks:
