Sorry for lateness, payment sent in. Honestly didn't expect the group buy to fill up this fast :D.

Re: PHR-803T HD-DVD diodes GB# 3 One for me plz :D

Just a side note If anyone is actually concerned about IR this guy reviewed and tested the Kaidomain one Here - http://ledmuseum.candlepower.us/eleventh/cupreous.htm It turns out it does have a IR filter and a pretty good one, not perfect but you can see for yourself on the review.

So sorry about that, had some sort of wierd connection problem ._. Didn't Notice it till now :D

So would i be correct in thinking that for 420ma i would need 2.976 Ohms?

Yeah I clamped it very lightly just to hold it steady enough to cut towards the pliars instead of cutting towards my thumb.

Oh alright. I believe i mistook the 250mw of the 20x for the 250mA of senkat ones.

Well i don't really know, I read somewhere that senkat's open can ones do ~250mw with plastic lens and ~300mw with glass but mines a 20x so i haven't seen what it's supposed to do.

This is how I opened up mine. Not popping but cutting. Holding the lens housing lightly with locking pliers(just to have something to cut towards other than my thumb). Use a straight edge razor to cut the plastic horizontally as shallow as possible in the direction of the pliers. Turn and...

So you just move the resistor(s) to that position and it gives the same result? So it will look somewhat like this?:

Yeah it looks like it's plated copper.

That's pretty cool :D. I'm attempting to fit this in a 15mmx150mm flashlight tube. Everything needs to fit on either side of a little PCB board.

I may just have to fry one to experience this magic blue smoke :P

Good to know. Can save some space now :D

Does anyone know if it would be safe to cut the aluminum tab that sticks off the back of the Lm317T? I would like to know for space saving purposes. :D Like this:
