Hello ppl.
Big Aluminium plate arrived today so finally i can start aligning the first 4x405nm diodes. (out of 24)
I bought some nice Cooling Wings from " www.Elfa.se " to work as cooling.
Anyway i have emailed edmund optics for the Achromatic lenses to tighthen and (combine) the beams, and i got the answer that they wouldent suggest achromatic lenses as the Wavelength is near UV. And suggested me to use "Fused Silica lenses", and also he wrote:
-"To recommend a specific part though, I would need diameters and focal lengths."
What excactly does he mean? the diameter of the diode? focal lengths?
Somebody?
Also he suggested to use this type of Beamsplitting cube:

i trust him but just wondering if anybody know of a better price somewhere? Although i know Edmunds have good quality i might aswell go with em.?
Thnx for any answers.
Take care ppl and have a great weekend.
