The link to the driver purchas is on the beginning post. But here let me get it for ya again, I just learned how to do this and I think its neat!!! AixiZ 445nm laser module assembly kit (no diode) | eBay

I really like that beam... Ive got the lense adjustment out as far as I can get it with out the spring poppin out. Ive looked as closely at the lense as I could and dont see any fingerprints or dust. The little lense module looks like its got another adjustment in but I thought this was set so...

The seller recomends typical 1.2A @ 4.3V. To drive this diode at 1.2 to 1.5 watts. How many amps does 3AAA batteries have? Less amps than an 18650? Im at 4.5volts but I have no idea what kinda amps Im pushing.

I bought a module and driver combo that came with the coated glass lense.

I thought it might be beneificial for you to see tha appature from the front while being fired.

Yeah, that was kinda a red flag for me to!

I got my laser project together. Im not impressed power output. I built a 800mw laser pistol last week that seems way more powerful. I can light matches, and make the match stick smoke, but he can set the wood on fire and instantly light the match from 6 feet away. Im worried about a few...

Wonderful.... Ya'll have certainly set my mind at ease. Thank all of you very much!

Thank you! You've resolved my worries. And Yes, I'll sink that module a little deeper once I get the diode pressed into the housing and soldered to the driver. As far as power... it should be in the 1.5W ball park. I picked that heatsink cause I thought it looked cool, eaven when the laser...

Im ready to solder my XJ-A140 diode to my driver board. I see ESD warning stuff all over the place. How serious is ESD, and what are some methods that would limit my risk of frying a diode?

Ok, its a pistol, A Colt 1911 to be exact, so it only has a momentary switch on it. I'll have to do that when I have another set of hands around. And in that picture I was hiding my eyes behind the camera. I just finished assembly a coupple hours ago!

oh my, I cant do that in the reply can I?

Gimme a minute, Ive got a photo, I just have to resize it real quick.

Really... I'll sure keep that in mind for my personal build. My friend bought this one and just had me assemble it for him. It is a dot, but it seems to be a very large dot. My goggles are for 532nm so I cant get down and dirty with it. I have a diode and goggless on the way. He has some goggles...

Sorry I had to get off the phone to figure out how to do that!

800mw 0.8w 445nm 450nm Blue Blu Ray Lazer Laser Module with Heatsink Powerful | eBay

I have an e-bay idem number 180714744989

The driver came prepackaged on the module. It was an e-bay laser. Not allot of info was provided.

I finished a build today for a friend. His module is an 800mw or .8w, 445nm that calls for up to 7.5v power supply. So I opted for two of the 18650 li-ion cells. Whic is a 7.4 pack. Now Im starting to worry about wheather or not that was such a good idea. That 7.4 s nominal voltage, right? They...
