Yeah, my bad, they are 16x, but are almost as powerful as a LOC 20x diode. i think LPF user ,Daguin, runs these at like 490-500mA. which is just crazy!!:D i'll run one at probably 430mA which is the max for the rckstr driver, i think

No, its fine, Lonewolf, i still havnt received a pm from Scopeguy. i need to know if he can do a Paypal transaction. though, i'm still not really sure how to do private payments through paypal; i mostly use it with ebay and other commercial sites on the web. Do you guys use Paypal for...

I'll buy one, but I only use Paypal. P.M. me if you can accept paypal.

i recently bought a LCC 20x diode that was probably pulled out from a GGW drive. These diodes should be just as powerful as a LOC 20x diode, but more durable when handling.

Do you guys know where to purchase these LCC red diodes? i know you can extract them from a GGW 6x bluray sled, but i want just the red diode.

i used my dremel to grind both sides of the heat sink. then simply twisted it apart with two pliers. and about the film on top, i thought it was the protective glass lens! i installed it on my driver and worked really great. and the beam was bright as well even at dusk. but unfortunately...

Thanks for all the replies from the other post http://laserpointerforums.com/f50/lcc-vs-loc-815-a-46335.html Well, after a loooooooong wait for the LCC 20x diode to arrive from darklasers, i finally got it! but there's this metal casing on it and i need to know how to take it off safely...

i ordered one a week ago and when i turned it on ( with fresh AAAs), the dot was about as bright as a 5mw red!! i told them about it and they shipped another on for free. i received it today and it still is a REALLY dim dot, not even a beam at night. it says right on the warning sticker that...

Thanks for all your responses, i'm hearing that some of you guys are running LCCs at 500ma?! So, if this LCC i got from Darklasers works, then i can run full blast with a RCKSTR full range laser driver? which is like 450ma, right? I didn't want to get the LOC cause its more fragile, but the...

HEY GUYS I'm looking at a Long Closed Can 20x Diode at Darklasers. And I'm wondering if you guys would recommend it. Darklasers says its not as good as the LOC-815, but the dot is less splotchy or splattery. I was also wondering, do the leads on the LCC have the same polarity configuration...
