same for Marks and Spenser in England... De-economies of scale.  The Credit Crunch is really hitting home!

Thank you Kernel, All taken on board!

When soldering the led to the driver (or jump leads) is their a desired temperature to do this at? I will be using lead free solder and the minimum temperature my iron goes to is 180degC. I have been reading that its best to use the bare minimum temperature just to melt the solder, tip the...

Thank you daguin, You sussed out the plan ;) every tinkerer needs a draw full of bits and bobs or in a old tobacco tin!

you never know these things... would rather keep it in tact.  But from your reply, i gather its not possible. Edit: Cheers sk8er. I actually meant the glass cover at the tip of the torch. I will be saving the LED. I have noticed that it is not as bright as the cree c3, even though there both...

Is there any way of saving the original LED lens cover on the dorcy jr? or is it a case of just breaking it out?

I agree, and for some youngsters "Wow a worm!!!" *Eat it* from 1st post, what actually made him do this and then to try it out multiple times to check if the first time he damaged his eye??? I wonder if those b vitamins and specifically beta carotene will actually help, if even a little.

Thats why I ordered my flex a week ago ;) cheers

Im glad you said it, I didnt have the heart too!!

Hehe Buddy theres WORLDS more! It is exciting when you get into it. Ive started 6.6kV or 6600V (thats ~9300V peak ac) motor and steam generators at work, it is good!

Idd. I think there after an average anyway.

Hey charlie. Yeah a few posts back "Think of it as PRESSURE in a water pipe, when you loose that pressure THATS IT MATE you've had it, your not going to have any flowing water. So the voltage allows the current to flow, thats it." It is a good way to describe the voltage. The voltage that you...

I would be happy to be corrected here, I have read this loads of times but Ive actually forgotten of the top of my head. Taken from microdrive thread in buy/sell: "Dropout voltage (minimum input voltage) theoretically 2.25V+output voltage. So, for red diodes ~5V, blu-ray diodes ~7V. MAXIMUM...

accord. to dr.Lava's 405 roundup graph, that would be 150mA or over.... someone will link the graph up here, or if you go to HIGHTECHDEALZ, kendall has it posted up with the 405phr803t's.

Bud, theres no real page I can put up and say 'these are laser equations', its all theory that has been dervied from phenomenon and applied to different situations i.e.lighting in your house, to your car battery, to your laser... there all linked with the same basic theory, you cant say that one...
