Another Qualas build, this time using a Nubb24t submodule. The Fan shaped beams were fun, but what about going parallel for this build? Build summary: - Unsoldered the submodule from the Nichia module, I kept the original lens array this time - Reflowed the 4 LD’s submodule in a 20mm DTP...

Found some 3W 425nm pointers on AliExpress and got thinking what could be the diode used on them. Them I found a cheap GH04I01A2G and decided to try over-current it as I think this may be the diode, calculated about 1.5A for the 3W and gave a try! No issues so far! I really liked how the...

The Numb12t is composed of 2 submodules: - 4x2 reds (used on the octa-beam) - 3x 525nm + 2x 465nm I decided to use the second half on this project with the blues dormant to create a pure green multi-beam. I was not that excited with just 3 beams and was also expecting the greenies to be the...

Of course I would not stop on the Blue Penta-beam after all the effort put into Polyboost! My Numb12t arrived and the reds beams look really awesome behind a long FL lens (: But lots of artifacts to try cleaning out… Stay tuned for the build.

Last year I lost my hopes on getting a GH04C06X9G for a multi-beam blue pointer, so I began looking for a multi-diode solution. After seeing how close the new Qualas modules have the diodes mounted, I decided to try focusing all of them with a single big long FL lens (: So I got a Nubb38t with...

I was having a hard time searching high Vf boost drivers in a compact circular size that would fit in a flashlight body. At some point I was convinced that I would not find it ready to buy at the size I wanted, and after some tests with the TPS61500 boost controller I finally decided to learn a...

Got a KLC420FS01WW from LaserTree and built into a polished titanium Convoy T3, driving it with a 800ma boost driver. This measured at 420.9nm with a LittleGarden spectrometer, so still count as 420nm for me :) The color? Purple! Not the strange 405nm violet or the purplebluish from 445nm blue...

I used to work with laser shows in the past and I still have some "tubes" from them. Specifically, I saved 3 modules that were the first diodes I ever pressed: An 450nm 1.6W, 520nm 700mw and 638nm 700mw. I want to turn them into a trio of RGB pointers for the memories, but I have one issue...
