Man, you definatly get the gold star for the week. Even kcar came out to comment...

Have you computed your overall loss after everything, mirrors, cubes, and lenses?

That's pretty good Phil, they must be high quality doublets.

Yes please!

Any information regarding them would be very useful, and how you tested them to conclude they will run ok at 250mW CW.

Thanks!

So is this thing just sitting there, in your room, doing... anything?

You haven't added it to a... 1 watt green yet?

As I sit here looking into the red light... Is there any way to colminate the beam again with another "focusing" tube to get an even smaller beam?

I was talking to Phil about this he said its a design he built himself, that was analog modulation something like <1,000k. I asked if he would share his design and he said no.

C'mon Phil...! Sharing is caring. hahaha

A beam expander (believe it or not) will give you a smaller tighter beam in the long range (so I've read-never tried it myself) .There is probably a beam 'waist' issue though.

Hello!
Sorry, I couldn´t take new Fotos, I rebuild it now and wait a little bit for work out a new, better design.
Drivers will be also other in future, Drive on the positive side, so I mustn´t isolate the Laserdiodes!
