The pin doesn't feel like loose. I will try it when I recieve my missing parts.

I think I misunderstood jayrob's message. "It does look that way... But it may still be fine." I thought he meant there may be a chance that it may still work without it. I checked it and I am 100% sure that there is a hole there.

Hmm. I will try it without that insulation around the diode pin, if it doesn't work I will see what I can do about it. By the way, jayrob can you check your PM inbox?

Thank you for your answer. As you said, I first tried desoldering red/IR-diode and I failed. Then I took the chance of ruining blu-ray diode and tried desoldering it to. And I think I succeeded this time. Does it seem like I succeeded? :D

I have recieved my kit today. Thanks for fast shipping. :) ---- I have some questions for building. Should I use the diode with 4 legs or 3 legs from PHR sled? (I guess the one with 3 legs) By the way legs of the diode with 3 legs are a little bit warped. I think that won't be a problem...

In any case, I think you better go see an eye doctor.

But as far as I know, IR is more dangerous than green and violet.

Would buying these two enough? Do they protect me from green, red and violet and ofcourse IR. http:/ /store. oemlasersystems.co m/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=8_10_72&products_id=420 http:/ /store. oemlasersystems.co m/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=8_10_72&products_id=421...

Hi I recently bought a 200mw green laser pointer from DX (I know it's not a good choice but I had a refund from DX and I had to buy something) and I already had 5mw green with an IR filter. I know that the laser from DX doesn't have IR filter so I thought protection is needed and important. So...

Ups. Sorry I didn't know you were from this forum too, neighbour  :P

Thank you for your answers. I just mixed up for a second and thought that LD was "Laser Driver" lol. Do jayrob ship to Turkey?

I think FlexDrive is a LD. Am I correct? By the way, buying these kits doesn't seem like "do it yourself". If I buy one of these, I think I won't be able to learn anything. Because everything will be pretty much set up for me.

Hi I am interested in lasers for a long time but I recently started to get interested with inner workings. I read the forum to learn some things and I think I learned a lot. Now I want to build my first DIY laser (a burning violet one). As far as I know, I need a laser diode, a driver card, a...

Great job.
