    If you need to ask the question 'whats so good about a laser' - you won't understand the answer.

    yeah its a real piss take. the second diode was brand new only got it friday.

    i cant understand what went wrong, its mounted on wood so its not touching anything but its self.

    i can order diodes from US for £10 each but they take 3 weeks to arrive. i really wanted a working projector for the meet.

    no green no red, just blue.

    lasers arent going well for me at the moment

    What happened to the green?

    I'll have a dig round to see what I have spare.
    I'm sure I can come up with a pair of 658s. Might have to push one from a housing though...

    Simon,
    How did you find the Rohms to use?
    I had problems much above 100mW.
