**ledfreak3d** · 08-12-2010, 04:37

Hey Guys ive been designing a laser diode mount / heatsink for all our diode needs
let me know what u think
im planning on getting these build soon

ofcourse keep in mind its stil in the design process
any tips are welcome

Hiya
Lookin good , very similiar in style to daves diode mount , i like the extra fins for heatsinking.

Having had some of daves delivered , and looked and studied something to consider maybe to build it around Evils diode and lasorb holder to ensure that fits in/on as its a cool product and maybe an extended case / overhang to protect the wiring.

The grooves on top do not really add to the cooling capabilities right now.
One uses grooves to increase the surface, but these grooves increase the total surface by a few percent. Most of the heat is conducted to the baseplate anyway.

Maybe you can increase the footprint a little so you can mount a 30x30 fan on top. Then change the grooves into a star-like pattern.

Maybe you can add a hole or slot to fit a lasorb into. (as close as possible to the diode)

Yeah Paul, it does look pretty similar to my design.. I think my design is better tho

No i know its more for looks then anything else
i have several diferent versions also dual versions and bigger versions for 30x30 and 40x40 tecs
i even have a complete laserhead
and ofcourse it wil fit all aixiz lenses and lens27

Nice work dave

How mutch is it ?
and does it fit the aixiz 405 - 445 lens

It does git the aixiz 405nm lens, or any lens that has m9, 0.5mm thread.

I have a group buy running, 5 left I think, with another lot arriving soon
