Not sure if its visible in the upper left portion of that photo, but there is a round-ish 'wavy' looking distortion. Is that pretty normal?

To ressurect an old thread, ive just noticed a defect on a laser diode i just got into a host. Ive attached the photo. Im running a 445 diode at 800mA, and showing a defect when i leave my glass lens off, and just project the bare diode. Any thoughts?

PM sent.

Are the lenses taken from the projector, glass or acrylic, and if they are glass, do they fit an aixiz housing?

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.

Do a DIY 4171 or 18650 build with the new 445 nm diodes from casio. I just finished mine for about 150 bucks. Its at 600 mA, for longevity. It will last awhile.

Jayrob, if my 445 nm diode is already pressed into the aixiz module is it still possible to change out the acrylic for the 405 g 1?

Do you think I would be better off, buying a 589nm laser pointer off of laser glow rather than attempting to make it? BTW, how does a 5 - 10 mW 589 nm laser look at night, (for astronomy purposes?)

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?

If my 445 laser is running at 600mA with the stock acrylic, will it be destroyed or should it be okay?

SO. You take the time to post that, while ignoring my original inquiry, looks like etiquette is going the way of the dinosaurs on the 445 forum. And I did not find the information I was looking for while searching the forum.

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...

When I buy the batteries are they 4.3 or 3.6 advertised?

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?

Now when you say boost, what are you referring to?

Which driver do you recommend, and how do they differ?

If you dont order the HOT option on this, will you NOT be getting the driver at all???
