    How to use 50mA+ driver with <40mA laser

    They advise me this laser: www. laserkopen. com/c-40_102-p-10155.html Only because they don't have a 50mW (or so) red laser. I hope I won't burn things with 100mW because that is really not what I want. It must be safe to have this laser in a show, and don't burn plants. Specsheet:

    How to use 50mA+ driver with <40mA laser

    I did some quick searching, and found a Dutch website (may not be the cheapest) but since it lays out various laser diodes, it's my initial reference to search for a diode that is suitable for me. It's a Dutch website, so enable the auto-translate if necessary. (I needed to add some spaces...

    How to use 50mA+ driver with <40mA laser

    Hi Adam, Thank you for your reaction. You think along well which really helps me. Since I did not any testing (yet), with the laser in the fog/mist, and after reading your message, it was time to actually DO a test with the 5mW laser. I made a video about the visual test, and I'll see if I can...

    How to use 50mA+ driver with <40mA laser

    Funny that you ask. I'm building a light-show in a small garden. In the soil, 12 pvc tubes of 50mm arise a bit above ground-level. Via a pipe system underground, mist/fog (real water mist) is transported and pushed out of the 50mm openings. The openings have custom made valves on top of them, to...

    How to use 50mA+ driver with <40mA laser

    So you say, I can drive such a laser with only an arduino or so? That would be great ofcourse, since that reduces the complexity of my project. I need to control around 12 lasers individually. However, I hooked them up to a 3V power supply, and the laser is now fainted, so I don't think it can...

    How to use 50mA+ driver with <40mA laser

    As the title stated, I think I need to find a way to change the output properties of a driver, so it meets my laser. Let me explain. I have these simple and cheap diodes: search for number 590519565 in the AliExpress site. In case the product page is not there anymore, here are some pictures...
