UK Group Buy - open can 660nm and 405nm diodes

[ElektroFreak]

While it doesn't apply to the diodes in this GB, I figure I'll post this here anyway for those who might want it since the topic of red diode datasheets came up.

The LCC (long-die closed can) red diode datasheet (red diode from the GGW sled)

Now if we could just get positive IDs on some of these blu-rays..

Yea i would really like to know some info about the volts and amps im supposed to use with these 405nm GGW´s

i know for the old PH´s but these are supposed to be stronger, so im guessing more power.. but how uch. :P

so the red open cans from the ggw are slightly lower powered than normal LOC, didnt know that.

im learning so much today

its not a LOC diode

I good 'safe' current for the GGW is around 180-190mah

The LCC Red from the GGW is not a fragile as the LOC. I have been running mine @ 400mah without any hiccups.

They are rated at a slightly lower power, but as jaycey said, they are not as fragile as the LOC. I've killed several LOCs through accidental back-reflection from various kinds of optics (even AR-coated optics), but so far I haven't killed any LCCs and I've used both in the same ways. Also, the die isn't exposed, so they don't require as much care when handling. I much prefer the LCC, myself.

The diodes have arrived,
thank you andy.

Just a question.

I unpacked the boxes today.

i ordered
10x 815
10x GGW

and all boxes have sleds.

I thought i read somewhere that the GGW was not going to have any SLeds?

just making sure i havent got the wrong boxes.

Conserning info data on the BLUE-RAY diodes here are some Data i found on LPF

i thought the ggw didnt come in sleds but they did.

the ggw are in the bigger boxes
