Hi! I'm sorry, but your request seems out of the blue to me O.o are you sure I'm the person you're looking for?

I prefer 405s =D It seems like they're more useful to entertain my needs, namely burning stuff fast and charging up glow in the dark stuff haha.

Many others and recently myself too, have been surprised (positively) by the ebay seller "itemquickship" ( eBay My World - itemquickship. Several people have gotten overspec lasers from him. I recently bought a Green/Bluray laser combo from him for only $16 shipped!!! I'm not sure if they are up...

Green laser pointer with a red dot. Nice =)

Really? O.O No way!!! I finished my first laser, a 405, today! It was destined to be this way =P

Oh yeah yeah, haha. I wouldn't wish to bust yet another diode XD thanks.

So yeah 7v minimum...Hmm, interesting... Well, the host did include one of those 3xAAA battery holders! I guess I'll order some of the 10440-10450 batteries that you guys are talking about. In the meantime I'll make a host out of cardboard to hold my 18650's =P lol.

Well, I bought some Sanyo 18650 from LarryDFW, they're rated at 2,600mah so I assume that's at least enough. However, I'm surprised that a 405 LD needs so much voltage to function haha. When I bought the 18650 host from Jayrob I immediatly assumed it would be able to fit the whole bad boy haha.

Ohh, shoot =P My guidesman host only fits one 18650 (although I DO have two available...) haha. Well, since there's no other way around it?, i'll just wait around until I find a fitting host. Thanks so much guys =D

Yes! Awesome! =D And yes, it's a PHR-803t. Actually, I might as well ask now. It has also been bothering me that in his instructions his picture says that a 9v source is needed in order to properly drive the laser. However, I plan on only using a single 18650 battery. How will that change my...

Hello, I'm currently trying to build my own laser driver. More specifically the one called LM317. I've read through the instructions (here Laser driver - It can be done) a few times but I cannot seem to find more detailed information on the specific use of the Variable Resistor/Multiturn Pot. I...

Re: Guidesman Host Kits (with Polished HS Option) & DRIVER Heatsinks *FREE POLISHING* With Midterms and Finals just around the corner I don't want to distract myself with too many pretty lasers haha. But by the end of next month I'll be done, and be sure that from my past purchase experience...

Hmm, no I didn't check that. Maybe that's another step I should take haha. Thanks for the tip.

Re: Guidesman Host Kits (with Polished HS Option) & DRIVER Heatsinks *FREE POLISHING* Just wanted to say "thank you!" I got the Silver host today, and I agree with everyone else here, it's simply beautiful! I can't wait to assemble my laser this weekend! Thanks again so much =D

Thank you, I'll go ahead and read the stickys in that section.
