Hey so this may be (and probably is) a crazy idea, but has anyone tried water cooling a housed and heat(sunk) 445 or any laser diode. So you have the diode, then the aixiz housing (or whatever) then the heatsink, and then hollow copper tubing spun around the heatsink ran by a battery powered...

SO I was wondering if there are any 635 nm diodes that can give a significant amount of power (100+ mw) while still being moderately affordable? (under 1k) This is for a DIY build. Thanks.

SO the title says it all, I was wondering where I can buy laser diodes for either yellow or orange color lasers, or just lasers themselves. Anyways, any help would be much appreciated. Are they affordable? Too expensive?

So I heard there is a new lens from aixiz, that is specific to 445 nm, and I was wondering where I could order this from, as well as some new a 140 or a 150 diodes. Thank you! BTW, A fun little update, I have have bought a Le Blond lathe for 1200 and it is Incredible, granted moving it was a...

So I have just completed my first 445 build with a 4171 host, and a microboost, and I was wondering, what are the specs of the 18650 I need to be looking for and what voltage and mAh are they? Thank you.

Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone had a pinout for the casio a130 diode. Like which pin is positive and which is negative or unused. Thanks alot!

So this whole 445 thing kinda just exploded and I was wondering what diodes are people using for all these builds?

SO ya I was wondering if there is something I can do to project a batsignal on a cloud? thats VERY bright.

So Im looking into building/buying a 12x complete build, and I was wondering, at night (without smoke) how visible is a 500 mW blu ray laser? Thanks.

Hey guys, Im a total noob looking to start a new 405 nm build, and I was wondering what drivers would you reccomend for an 8x or a 12x diode, I have been looking into the flexdrive and the RCKSTR v3, and I was wondering if you had any suggestions for either, this post is so I can figure out...

So I've started my first blu ray project. My brother went down to frys electronics and got a used hd dvd hard drive. We extracted the diode successfully, and we bought the components for the driver at radio shack, and wired that together, Heres where we ran into trouble.. When we got...

Hey guys, So I'm thinking about getting an 8x diode, and I was wondering at what mw range would it be visible at night? Could you reccomend me a diode that would be visible at night? Thanks. I'm kinda new to this whole thing and I'm new to LPF, so use laymen terms please! Thank you! P.S. I...

How many mW can you get from an hd dvd diode laser? and also, can the beam be seen clearly at night time? like as clear as a green laser? thanks

The title says it all :D Just for fun :) lets see what you've taken!

Hey guys, I love the community here, and I love lasers. Say, Im thinking about getting a 150 mW green laser, mostly for astronomy, and recreational purposes (aka just having fun with it) Should this laser impress me for 200 dollars? And also, is there a disadvantage to having a pen laser...

So I was just wondering if someone could post some night shots of their 150 mW optotronics green laser pointer? Also could you tell me how you like it? Thanks!

So I was watching this video YouTube - Wicked Laser: Fun with 75mW Phoenix, LaserSaber & TunnelGuN. (how do I do links?) So I was just wondering if there is anywhere I can buy something that does the tunnel effect on the laser?? thank you! ///cod4pwns08

Hi there! I just joined the laserpointerforums and I just wanted to say hi and my first laser is on its way! Today I ordered my optotronics 150 mW pen! and I am super excited! Thanks! cod4pwns08

Hey guys, I just joined here so I am pretty new to this stuff. But, I was planning on buying a 150 mW pen from optotronics and I was just wondering if a pen style laser can handle 150 mW? THanks, and sorry if this is a noob question.

so I was just wondering where optotronics was based out of because my dad wont buy from a foreign company..
