Hi fellow folks. Just a wee update. So i made my barebones test load, went investigating with my new tool and no suprises, the driver output was 760mA when on full :tsk: Well time to sort that out :toilet: and here are my results for the new load driving the diode. No explination needed here...

Something that may be of use for arctic host owners out there. When i was trying to stuff it back together i was thinking to myself how this was assembled in the first place so i was looking at the host and seen that it has 4 main parts to it. The end cap, battery compartment, LED battery...

Hehe, or a dog with a smaller head lol. It has been changed though. It was a pic i picked up a few years back on the net. The dogs face is cool and if it turns out its ok to use i will put him back up:D So i have a spare A140 diode, i bought 2 just incase i made a muckup along the way. I will...

Hi folks. 1st thing i will do after this post will be to change my avatar to something more laser like just to save on any ambiguity. :o :thanks: for the hi. Well i have an arctic as previously mentioned and have been working on getting it to its true potential. I wish to thank all for the...

Hello again peoples. Most of my stuff arrived. Still waiting on the lenses. Had to test my new doides so i stripped the host which resulted in the existing diode pins breaking :cryyy: A risk i was willing to take. Anyway, here is some pics of the new diode in action. Excuse the mess...

Ok fellow folks after considerable searching . I have on delivery 2 A140 diodes with glass AF AixiZ lenses installed in M9,0.5mm nuts, 1 test load rated up to 3 amps, 1 t.i.s 100 dmm, 1 diode press tool 5.6mm, 1 tube of arctic thermal paste, antistatic wrist strap. These items should arrive...

This has made me happy. I have an arctic g2 and i was looking to buy a new laser so i was browsing youtube and found a vid from laseerer and knew the name from the post mentioning a place with a rundown on how it was done so i turned to investigate mode and remembered where, sifting finaly paid...
