    Laser Losing Strength?

    Hi everyone! As you all may know, I recently finished my 1W, 445nm build, and now I have a bit of a problem :( It seems as if my laser is not anywhere near as strong as it was when I first started out. I have 1W Blue Laser Module from DTR, an aluminum heatsink that fits my F22 host, and I'm...

    Laser for Star Pointing

    Hey guys! After successfully completing my first DIY build (1W 445nm in F22 host), I got a call from my friend asking to see how it turned out. To make a long story short, he was very, very impressed and asked how I had built it, etc. Anyway, his birthday is coming up, and I wanted to build...

    F22 Flashlight Modes

    Hey everyone! I just finished building my 1W, 445 nm laser inside an f22 host. Now, I'm very,very annoyed right now because the 5 modes the flashlight has by default are still happening with the laser! How do I get them to stop, and just have the light on high beam steady all the time?

    Replacement Host

    Hey everyone! Y'all might have seen my post earlier today asking about my 1W laser module. Well, the good news is that I ordered the batteries off of Amazon. The bad news is that, when I checked my Pocket Mini host, I accidentally dropped it onto my tile floor, and now the clicky tail switch...

    Laser is Super Underpowered

    Okay, here's the story: I recently ordered 1W Laer Module from eBay, and, when it arrived and I hooked it up to a power source, the laser was bright, but had NO burning power AT ALL. I put a candle wick right next to the aperture for 30 seconds, and it wasn't even warn to the touch afterwards...

    Pocket Mini Build Help

    Hey Guys! I just got my pocket mini host kit from CajunLasers, and I'm having a bit of a noob moment here. I can only unscrew the flashlight to reveal the battery compartment! I'm not sure how to get the stock flashlight out of the flashlight body! Any help would be greatly appreciated...

    What is "Reputation" and how does it work?

    Hey guys.... I'm new to the forums, so I'd just like to say "thanks" to everyone here. Just a short Bio: I hail from a small town in Texas, but don't judge me a country bumpkin just yet. I've traveled the world, graduated high school summa cum laude, and have a job as a college professor...

    Glowing Laser Accessories

    Howdy all! I remember a while back while I was "lurking" before becoming a member, I saw a photo of someone's laser that had little areas around the "emitter" (for lack of a better word) that glowed bright blue. I also remember reading that there was some chemical that they used in little...

    Blu-Ray Astronomical Laser?

    Just had a quick question. I came across one of Kipkay's tutorials: building a blu-ray laser phaser. While the "phaser" part isn't what I'm interested in, the beam's visibility seemed really good to me, and I was wondering if using a blu-ray diode for an astronomical laser pointer would be a...

    Laser "Backboard"

    I recently ordered a 1W (445nm) laser. Originally, I was thinking of using it outside only, to limit specular reflections and save my walls from scorch marks :) However, I'd really like to use it inside. I built myself a little "backboard" that I'm thinking of using so that I can use my laser...
