A few days ago I put together my barrel with a phasor diode and a 400ma driver from rckstr. This is an eye candy thread so onwards! My eyes are stinging from the incense as I type :P Thanx for looking and wish my diode a long life! EDIT: That was my 100th post too. Cool!

Up for sale is an open can box. It is very compact as it is built into a jewelery box and is driven by an amc7135. The box measures 4.6cm x 4.4cm x 5cm Pics! Open can Open can innards I am asking $60US for the open can box. This includes a glass lens but NOT the battery. As I am in...

No you sexual deviants! This is NOT a variant of the dildazer. I thought I'd share with you guys the jewellery box laser! :D Is it me or does it resemble the tardis? :P I'm surprised how long its taken me to discover how useful these are as project boxes, seeing as my mum works at a...

I just got some amc7135's from dx and they are working well, output in the 300+ ma. For some reason, the capacitor across the diode causes nothing to flow. If i desolder it, diode shines (yeh kinda risky without cap but using 2 AA to drive :-/), put it back and the circuit seems dead. Anyone...

When I finish soldering up a diode, I like to check the connection with a couple of weak nimh's before siliconing it up. Is this ok or will it cause some sort of latent fault in the chip

I'm not sure if this has been pointed out but did anyone see this? Search for a seller named fhqwhgads! (Yes the exclamation is part of his name :P) He appears to be selling brand new open cans and he has pics of shiny ones in their trays. Unfortunately they are $55 a piece. But still, if this...

I received my psxboy bluray a couple of days ago. I hooked the diode up to about 35ma and it did all the fluorescing tricks that blurays do but it did not burn at all. A couple of days later I decided to play with the current a bit. at 50ma, still no burning (what gives) and the voltage across...

I was putting my Christmas tree together just then and when i turned on its light (its one of those optical fiber decorated ones) i found that the bulb driving all the fibers was blown. So i shone my dvd diode into the base where all the fibers are bundled and :o red tree. Unfortunately, the...
