    Using a dimmer, to dim the beam of a 520nm laser module

    Will the dimmer impact on Voltage or on the amount of electricity (i.e. mA)? Since the driver is capable to work between 3 and 5 volt I wonder if the dimmer is not going to be compensated by the driver whitout any visible effect. I am not sure if this can damage the driver or the diode. I have...

    How to assembly a 520nm astronomy laser pointer

    These diodes appear far more powerful of what can be legally usable in italy. Moreover they will be too bright. Can you suggest an online shop where I can buy a 520nm 5mw laser module with the spring plus the correct host, so I can make a single order/shipping? Thanks

    Help choosing right components for 520nm 5mw astronomy forest green LP

    Hi, I am trying to put together the right items in order to assemble a forest green (520nm) laser pointer to mount on my telescope. It should be battery powered and resistent to low temperatures (close to 0°C). I am based near Milan, so ordering from european shops (ie odicforce or...

    How to assembly a 520nm astronomy laser pointer

    Hi, thank you for your message. So I should buy rather than a module with a wire, a module with a spring already soldered? Could you suggest any site where I can find all the material, 520nm 5mw module with spring and the host What else should I but to put it together and get it to work?

    How to assembly a 520nm astronomy laser pointer

    Hi, I live in the northern part of Italy, near Milan. I need to affix the laser on both my telescopes a 12" Dobsonian and an 4" refractor using a removable holder to switch telescope. I bought already a cheap ebay green laser 1mw, 532 DPSS unit for few dollars but it fades away when <15°. So...

    How to assembly a 520nm astronomy laser pointer

    Hi, I would like to build a 520nm laser pointer with a <5mw power to use on my telescope, something that stands low temperatures and it is not too powerful (harmful). Something like this Z-Bolt&#174 BTG-2S-P XT Green Laser Pointer for Low Temp Use 14° ~ 122°F Star Finding Issues with buying...
