No worries! :thanks:

Well like I said I know its not a brand new idea. At the same time I still haven't seen another with the wheel acting as the switch, also mine retains the original zippo dimensions.

My new vote goes to 3zuli! :beer:

Jayrobs's 10280 keychain build is just as small as a 3 button cell laser!

Ok so first a quick disclaimer. My idea is not completely unique. I know you've all seen Kipkays "cheapy lighter laser" and I know what the forum thinks of him and his practices in general. This was admittedly inspired by that infamous youtube clip. I use safety goggles and will not be...

So if a 100mAh battery is used with a 100ma laser would that battery last 1 hour?

Are there any "vintage laser" threads? if not you should start one with that. Would be interesting to see what comes out of the woodwork

:bowdown: Wow that thing is amazing! :drool: (given that its 2010 I still think mine wins:whistle:)

Re: Canidate for "uglyest" laser ever? u.g.l.i.e.s.t... got it! ;) I look forward to the pics! Its a crime that you don't already have pics of that piece of history! Thank you :) (I guess then you'll be sad to know she's cleaned up) she's less ugly now...

Here is my freshly built LG-22x LOC running on 440ma. Not sure of the power... And as stated in another thread, the a23 has a run time of about 5mins (if Im lucky...) Im pretty proud considering ten days ago I didn't know that handheld burning lasers existed. The build was only made as a...

How long will the ball last?

Thanks Dave!

ah... got it. Any suggestions for a battery of similar size? how about a 10180 3.7v?

So went down to the store and grabbed one. Wired it up quick and it worked great! but... after about 5mins of use it seams to have already run out of juice... does that seem right? Im about to hook up the second one to see if I can get different results

So why does to still produce light?

I would like to use this battery due to its extra small size for my lpc-815 build. I guess its a two part question Will it work at all? If it does any guesses on the expected life span?

Bummer.... Oh well, chalk it up to a learning experience... (just ordered two more lpc-185's) What actually happens to the diode to cause the "led effect" ?

I'll be the first to admit I am a total laser noob and forum noob. Today while assembling my first laser (lpc-815) using a 5mm tact switch that has 4 contacts, 2 on the right and 2 on the left. I made the rookie mistake of soldering it incorrectly which effective made the circuit constant on...

From one fellow Norcal noob to another welcome!

fine... fixed! No sense picking fights on my first day. sorry guys
