The reason for this was way back when humans lived in the wild and had to have a keen eye for predators so we developed good peripheral vision

Just thought of another idea, using it for a security system. Rig it so when the beam is tripped it would send a message to my phone and from there link to a camera system at the desired location. I remember kipkay on YouTube use an app for sending him a message when he got mail so it would be...

I have been doing a lot of research but my main concern was how to find an appropriate driver and what kind of power source to use. I only meant to pick the brains of the people who have been doing this for years. I have learned more with this thread than countless hours of research.

I would use it for a laser light show rig I plan to build. Im going to use red, green and blue lasers, maybe even violet and yellow.

This post helps a lot I already have a module like that one. That is a powerful, cheap diode. And a very cheap driver. The only thing I need to know now is how to hook up the diode and batteries to the driver and which batteries to use. Since this is my first laser I was hoping someone could...

I saw someone on YouTube use the back of the aixiZ module to press the diode in so I was thinking I could just do that. I didn't know that I needed a battery contact board with the rectangular driver, it seems weird that you need one for that type of driver and not one for the DIY LM317 type...

I also want to know if I need a heat sink or not

I was hoping the driver would fit in an aixiZ module. I'm not too concerned with a host yet. My primary goal is to just make a working laser, so far I have been unsuccessful. But I know I want it battery powered and hand held. My thought process was to find reasonably priced diode, then find a...

thanks. i dont really care what color as long as its in the visible light spectrum, which ever color is cheaper. i just need to be pointed in the right direction, mainly with the diode and driver set up.

Im trying to build my first laser. I know i want to to be around 100-200mW, preferably 100mW. I plan to use aixiz housing to fit a 5.6mm diode. I plan to build it on the cheap side. I would like some help on which diode to use along with which driver to use. I will also need some help on how to...
