Between what parts do i put the lens?

oh, ok

oh, now i understand, thanks. Is a glass lense something i should look to invest in? i heard they are better performing then the acryllic ones.

not exactly sure what you mean by the core of the lens holder, i tried alot of different ways. Should i find a spring while doing this?

Ok, now im trying to figure out on how to fit the lens into the lens holder. I am not exactly sure how it fits.

The two leads that are coming off of the battery contact to the light bulb part of the driver(blue and red leads found in the pictures above) may they be cut cause it will be difficult to desolder with that other stuff in the way(such as the metal ring and the circuit board with only the light...

It appears that the flashlight driver is the same piece as the battery contacts as seen in these pictures. (the large metal ring screws into the head of the cree). What should I do? I just cant cut the 2 leads and attach it to the new driver.

I know this isnt the right spot to ask, but is there any thing i should know before operating this laser. I know not pointing at a plane or at any life but is there anything additional i should know like operating in public places? I live in new york, us (in the middle of nowhere)

I ordered the last peice from dtr website. I will let you know when it arrives.

ApexProxy, if the extended lens holder to focus the beam looks like the ones that are in your profile picture, then i would believe it would be just fine.

Ok, and i dont need a lens holder, right?

From this website(dtr) https://sites.google.com/site/dtrlpf/home/diodes/9mm-445nm do i want the x-drive stock lens or would i want a non stock lens?

Yeah i will attempt it. The camera i took it with was a to high resolution picture so i had to make it a smaller image.

Ok, I had figured it out. I had posted both sides of the host, the battery contact and the driver side. It appears that it is glued onto the host.

I am having difficulties posting the pictures as it is asking for only a url link to the picture but I took the picture with the webcam so there is no url link to the picture.

Yeah lazerbeak, livinloud has been very helpful and mcrouse is an amazing guy. And for livinloud, i will post a picture over the weekend and i dont care about the flashlight driver

Ok, but i will not know till the heatsink is put in and sent to me. The driver from the led flashlight is still in there and it appears to be in there pretty well. Im not sure of the best way to remove it.

I looked into it and I believe it does have a battery contact

I talked to mccrouse and he said if i sent the host to him, he will put the heatsink in. So would I have everything needed to build this laser. I would get: (2) 18650 batteries C8 CREE host C8 CREE battery extension Safety Goggles Heatsink 445nm 9mm Diode In V4 Copper Module W/2.2A X-Drive...

I found a pair online
