    List of Laser Drivers - Available

    It looks nicer than anything else I have seen offered from a china vendor as a laser driver but would still want to see some scope tests on it, how far it actually drifts from the 5A(typ) listed during normal usage and specially how well it can be thermally managed.

    Blue Katana, a 70 watt handheld project!

    Yea I remember.:cryyy: That is the plan. Got reprioritized and prepared for worst case I get into something and nothing will be going out tomorrow. Very import DHL's got done mid afternoon before 2pm and just finishing up on as many as I can to be out the door by 5:45 and to the post to drop by...

    Recent advances in self-frequency-doubling crystals

    It is amazing the pace of developments fuled by the availability of many new higher power pump sources of varying wavelengths becoming available. I am looking forward to seeing some yellow and orange lasers in the 1W range that are getting close.

    Blue Katana, a 70 watt handheld project!

    I was thinking at least two strands like the old A's had 4 strands of 6 in series. On these if you did say two strands of 5 diodes then say the 24V forward range. Add a volt for the dropout and you would want to do two strands of cells in series instead of all cells in one chain. To be near 25V...

    Blue Katana, a 70 watt handheld project!

    Yea I have a bunch of videos somewhere of the testing I was going over with angelos basically using a driver with many starts via sessions of hot connect 9V or from zero the best way, fast loading and unloading hot and runs for longer durations up to thermal shut off then turning my supply to...

    Blue Katana, a 70 watt handheld project!

    Oh yes on my cheap mastech supply I was killing drivers by connecting them with the supply set above 10V which I only started having issues with when the newer higher power diodes came along as I use 12V with the 3.5A and over as I am lazy and don't want to change the jumper all the time on my...

    Blue Katana, a 70 watt handheld project!

    Yea they are wired in series so for sure 30V-36V is probably the drop and I would bet they don't go over 3A. They have to be able to compete with the life of LED sources to be competitive in the market so it means running them way below their potential or where previous generation dodes which...

    Blue Katana, a 70 watt handheld project!

    Check this thread. I know they measured how the strands were powered in there. Probably similar with these just higher current. https://photonlexicon.com/forums/showthread.php/11883-Running-the-XJ-A140-With-Missing-Diodes

    Blue Katana, a 70 watt handheld project!

    Yea I just threw 2S in there. One thing seeing is some post saying using cap or TVS that works as intended with the kinds of transients from one source like what we would expect to deal with say 2-3 li-ions in series or a bench power supply whatever may actually have the opposite effect with the...

    Blue Katana, a 70 watt handheld project!

    EDIT Whops double post. Yea sometimes when I see I am using 11.1V that is also a red flag. Fully charged is 12.6V which is over what I state the max is on the SXD but really it should handle up to 16V and will when run on a bench supply turning it up from zero volts. Found this...

    Blue Katana, a 70 watt handheld project!

    I can only tell you that I have seen a trend with specifically 3S Lipo packs and the drivers mentioned above. I put that warning up to try to keep anymore issue happen. Now this is just based on a trend I have seen and a couple results of searching for info on these packs. I am happy this was...

    Blue Katana, a 70 watt handheld project!

    Actually glad this came up as I need to delve deeper into it. The issue is not SXD or Lazeerer driver specific. Every time I have ever heard of a 3S lipo pack is a customer that either says the driver is dead or a lot of times the driver smoked or even made a large pop which with a picture is...

    Missing DTR ...

    It is all good. Should have sent him a message saying I would get with him as soon as I got a moment so I understand and probably deserve the vent. I had been pretty focused on just getting though some orders over the weekend and passed his message a few times as I needed to find where I put my...

    Missing DTR ...

    Sorry been working to get orders out the door and some messages that have a lot of questions requiring a longer reply, custom orders or running down info have been a bit slow to reply to. Anyway sent you a quick reply to your email with some of the info you asked about. Make you a longer reply...

    Wow.. Just Wow... Google is spying on you...

    Yea seems I was dribbling on there a bit but yea.:tinfoil: I have used different linux distros for certain things over the years mostly for media players so not completely in the woods when it comes to managing and navigating the system via the terminal but will say there are quite a few...

    Wow.. Just Wow... Google is spying on you...

    Things are certainly getting a little out of hand. I like most really never got that worked up about these things as I have looked at it similar to precedent for expectation of privacy based on physical location. If I am in my home I certainly have a expectation of full privacy. When I go out in...

    574nm 36 mW Yellow Laser

    Yep these are coming. This post is kind of buried now back in the middle of this thread. https://laserpointerforums.com/f40/574nm-36-mw-yellow-laser-102893-22.html#post1535339

    Want to see my house?

    Nice pics. Only landmark I know on site for Australia.

    574nm 36 mW Yellow Laser

    Yea should have done this after my post run as was in somewhat a rushed state of mind but wanting to mention anothoer pump source of 885nm to make 561nm which I had not seen thrown out there in all the different combinations that had been thrown out in the other thread but yea this thread should...
