    What music does LPF listen to?

    Lately I have been listening a lot to soundtracks, especially Joe Hisaishi's work. It's so relaxing and atmospheric, brings back all the memories from the amazing Studio Ghibli films. 8XOV2L-eM38 rZUppxT38Zk

    M462 diode with broken pins

    [SOLD pending payment] I managed to fuck up and broke off both used pins on an M462 diode. It is in a standard copper module (but without lens). The driver was touching the wall of the rear part of the module, so when I tried to unscrew it part, the driver rotated as well and twisted off the...

    Woohoo! Virtual Reality will soon be ours!

    Unfortunately these "drop-in-phone" VR devices like the cardboard, while pretty cool and makes a glimpse into VR's potential affordable for everyone, can not really compete with the dedicated VR HMD's like facebooks's oculus rift. Maybe this will change in a few years, but for now phones are not...

    Anyone selling bitcoins?

    I can sell you the bitcoins. Because of paypal fees and risk I'll ask for $20 instead of the current market value of $15 though. If that's ok, PM me

    LasershowGen - ILDA file creation tool

    Re: ildaGen - ILDA file creation tool New version today, v0.9.7.2. Another relatively minor update. Much of my work since the last release have been in features that didn't make this release, but there are some new stuff. The biggest change is that you can now save and load your ildaGen...

    I honestly hate building lasers.

    Don't worry OP, it gets easier with practice for sure. No need to get stressed, if it doesn't work then just take a breath to collect your thoughts and systematically troubleshoot. No need to get angry, the parts are inanimate after all. :) If you feel like you are about to start tearing your...

    Projecting points

    It'd be expensive, but you could always use several gavlos, like four of them, one for each quadrant of the scanning field.

    brief report from ILDA

    Wow, so those three winning shows are like 100 man-hours or more combined? Do you sell them for prices appropriate for the amount of work or is it mostly a hobby? Either way, tons of respect!

    100mW: Too Strong for a Simple Enthusiast?

    100mW is definitely enough to cause damage, but so if pretty much anything over 5mW, you can't have power and 100% safety all at once. It's all about responsible use. To be as safe as possible have everyone that could potentially be exposed wear safety glasses, never point it towards anyone or...

    brief report from ILDA

    A true work of art! What tools do you use to make frames like that? I haven't used LSX, is it mostly like function generators from scratch or are there more specialized tools that you can make use of to make patterns like that?

    BitLasers.com - Lasers for bitcoin

    With falling laser diode prices, plus a stronger American dollar that lets me reduce the profit margin and still make the same in my local currency, I have reduced prices on many items permanently! Notable examples are the 2200mW 462nm blue laser that is now $299 (before: $349), and the 2800mW...

    Which languages do you speak?

    I have been teaching myself Japanese for almost two years now and getting better and better. A bit better at reading than listening. Not fluent yet but if still counts that would bring the language count up to three :)
