    Hi Dave
    No experience of this seller, but have bought a 532nm 150 mW and a 650nm 100mW from from David Lanling.
    http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Lanling-Tech
    The green is superb, nice quality with cooling etc cost £140.
    The red needed a box and heat sink etc but still good value for £35!
    On test they both appear to be quite stable with decent beams....not bad for the money paid.

    Hi Kev, Thanks for info. I bought an almost identical red from seller "borphi".
    Advertised as 130mw red - I have no way of checking this, but was certainly very bright until its untimely demise!
    I'm new to al this M'lud, I had no idea!
    Ignorance is no defence!!!!
    You are hereby charged this day with careless and reckless use of a reflective surface resulting in the severe impaiment of an innocent young laser diode!! The poor thing can at best now emit the merest red glow!

    On a brighter note, I received this module - Ebay 3302106660689 - green advertised as 210 mw. No markings as to manufacture, but nicely built and very bright! ( I bought another green from this seller 100mw, which has worked faultlessly) I am enjoying a surfeit of green photons this evening
    All the best, David
