I have just got another CD-RW drive and would really appreciate some advice. The model is LTR-52327S, unit is made by LITE.ON CORP and the speed is 52x32x52x. Can any one tell me if the diode would be suitable for using.

Hi odic, for my lack of knowledge but is the driver you sell a Rckstr?

Many thanks

Thanks Lasersbee. I did find that info myself using a google search. I said that i could not find any info about this drive on this forum. Maybe i should have made my self clearer,i was asking if the diode in this drive would be suitable and powerful enough to use in a build. Thanks for your reply.

I have looked for info about this drive LG GSA-4081B DVD but cant find anything on the forum. Can anybody tell me if this is worth harvesting? Many thanks.

A hello from me. Im still learning down here in sunny Devon.

Try odicforce lasers, they are very helpful and quick delivery.

I have managed to go through the diodes and the first two i tried were the reds. I snapped the first one as the pins were very sort but the second one i have hooked up to the driver and it works really well. The info regarding the irs from RA_pierce seems to be good as the other diodes have...

Thanks for the info. I have had a quick look at them and they all have windows.

Im going to have a go at sorting them tomorrow. With the ir diodes,how much does the ir spread? Also, i have a housing with a lens that i could put each diode into before powering up. Would this help contain the spread of the ir?

I will try them out this weekend. Im a bit concerned about the ir danger. I have some red laser googles.will these be okay for protection?If not, what precautions could i take,apart from getting some ir glasses?

Thanks very much for your help. If i take some pictures of the individual diodes would it be possable to identify them?

I also have this sled,or whats left of it, any ideas which diode is which?

The strips from all 4 of them,from both drives seem the same thickness. But i have now discovered that two of them have two pins and the other two have three pins. i Couldnt tell straight away as the solder on the pins was so much.

Ah,slight problem there,i have now removed them from the sleds.

Ye, its says, class 3b visable and invisable laser radiation when open. I have just stripped them down,but cant tell which diode is which,they both have 3 pins on them.

I have been given a couple of dvd drives and was wondering if the diodes would be suitable for harvesting. The first one is PHILIPS DVD R/RW DRIVE DVD8701/96 and a HEWLETT PACKARD MODEL GCA-4080N i think its a laptop drive.Both say class 3b on the back. Many thanks

I recently finished putting the lasers together. Both have been working fine. Today i turned the current up slightly on the driver and i now have a very dull glow. Have i possibly blown the diode?Turned it back again but still the same,dull. Im not really worried if i have blown it,its early...

The spec with the glasses says as follows fourth harmonic generation Nd; Yag laser ommiter 266 nm He- Ne laser emitter 632.8 nm ruby laser emitter 694 nm alexandrite laser emitter 755 nm OD 4

I have two red lasers that i have put together,as in the attached picture. Not sure how much they are putting out as i dont have a mw meter.I am powering them with two cr2s
