3 years! In the UK you could get that for murder! I reckon a ban is coming. The legislators just love pissing off law-abiding users. :'(

Received the three harvested and fitted BDs today - awesome job. Thanks Jake. :) :)

Awesome piece of equipment!! :o :o As to power supplies, I've seen some Laser PSUs on ebay from time to time but check out Sure electronics on ebay. They stock Meanwell 125W, 5 volt supplies (much cheaper than elsewhere) that may be downwardly adjustable.

Diachi, you are right on this one. Tonight BBC News in Scotland reported 2 incidents of laser pens having been pointed at aircraft landing at Aberdeen airport. It was Edinburgh a week or so ago. :o Knowing the knee-jerk reaction Scottish politicians have regarding banning anything that remotely...

Re: DX 9865 heatsink and driver board - useful for The heatsink looks very sexy! :P If we knew where DX was getting these, a GB would be lovely.

I have and I stand by my original statement. ;)

Take it no one has managed to track down the spec sheet for the PHR diode yet. Seems like until somebody does, setting the current for them will be a hit or miss affair. :(

Thanx for the pointer rog8811. A quick google proves that solid state lasers are often modulated by PWM but as to colour mixing, that doesn't get much of a mention other than straight primary mixing which you have amply demonstrated. I hope to have some time in the future to muck around with...

Now that 405nm modules are available, has anyone exprimented with colour mixing of RGB lasers each being PWM? I assume this is possible since LEDs which are also current driven use this technique to achieve various intermediate colours. I know that others have used individual R, G and B lasers...
