    Holographic data storage?

    My grandpa told me that he read an article in the new york times that talked about "holographic" hard drives. He said it could hold data that was burned into a 3d medium.... did anyone see this article? I want to know more about it... could mean more high power laser diodes on the rise. Maybe...

    LOC getting quite warm..

    I'm using an LM317 ddl driver to supply about 405mA to my LPC-815. While I have the circuit running on a breadboard, I have the diode in an aixis module with two, DH dorcy original heatsinks around it. After about 5 minutes of continous running, the module seems to get pretty warm, almost...

    Flexdrive Capacitor Shorting

    I'm just about to set the current level for my flexdrive v4. I do have the users manual read and I know which pins are input and which are output, but shouldn't there be a small capacitor somewhere on the board that needs to be shorted out before i connect my diode after testing? If so, where...

    LPF mobile?

    I don't know about anyone else, but sometimes I'd like just pop up lpf on my ipod or cell phone sometimes just for a quick reference. What would it take to get a mobile version of this site going? If not, an ipod touch app would be pretty slick too.... :D How can we make this happen? Wouldn't...

    Labby Enclosure Suggestions

    I'm looking for a labby- style enclosure suitable to house an LPC-815 LOC mounted into the side panel with a focusing module. I'm planning on pinning the axis module in place using two dark horse black anodized heatsinks, one on the outside of the enclosure, one on the inside, with the axis...

    PHR-803t Dorcy Driver Clarification

    First off, I hear that the Dorcy Jr. has an LED driver built in, that outputs about ~5VDC. That's fine for me since I'm using a flexdrive v4, but will the Dorcy's original LED driver supply enough current if I set my flexdrive for ~115mA? Can I run the flexdrive @115mA off the Dorcy's driver...

    What about Lightscribe Diodes?

    HP's Lightscribe Disc Burners... they can etch images on the surface of Lightscribe Discs at high speed. I've been looking for something about them on this site for awhile and haven't found anything... The drives are pretty cheap and I bet the sleds for them are even cheaper... Is there...

    405nm Lens Myths? Or Facts?

    I've been reading this forum for awhile now, and I'm new to this forum as a member. I'm working on a 110ma PHR-803t Dorcy Jr. Build. But when it's come to lenses, posts on this website keep saying opposite things, so I thought I would go ahead and just get these facts straightened up here in the...
