Re: Site has all DX laser selection. U.S buy allow Sorry, this should be in the red section but it does cover all lasers.

Looking through some youtube videos and I found a guy who was able to get the 200mw red dx laser into the us. The prices are about the same, just a few dollars higher. Everything is free shipping and looks like they carry every item DX sells as well. In the laser section, the FDA warning is...

Since the FDA has imposed a ban on all lasers exceeding 5mw, is it still possible to buy one? they have said pay pal wont accept orders from the US at all but im sure there is another way. I know that of you can get an order, then you can pay 0.01$ and customs wont likely search because it...

yep i connected it when cap was charged and... LED XD! im going to buy another one from SenKat.

would i be able to power the circuit with 7vdc at 900ma? is 900ma to much input current?

yep the biggest thing that stood out to me that it was underpowered was that the diode module was barely getting warm after having it on for about 1-2mins. I really just dont want to blow the diode though.

yes i am using a DDL. How would you check for current on a multimeter? which setting?

hey when i plug my 250mw red into my driver circuit with the resistors, pots, and everything, the diode is bright and can smoke some black plastics when focused. The only problem is it doesn't get hot at all, (which it should) and i cant light matches even with black marker on them (it only...

Thanks i will check out the flexdrive from Dr_Lava and will see if will work. I would like the Bluray to be small, and since it is a gift to a friend, i would like to have a diode life of at least >500hr. I have been building lasers for a while, but I am new to LPF.

going to build a bluray and since i don't want to go through the complications of making a driver circuit and finding a big enough host for it, i was wondering if you could mod a red laser powered by 2xAAA and switch the 5mw diode with the bluray. Seems like it would work because unlike green...
