    Laser Warning A case for my single mode rgb built :)

    Hey Guys!

    Haven't seen a projector built for a while on PL and it deserves more post of projector build projects :P

    Just wanted to share some info and pics of my latest project

    Already started my projector casing build,

    Here it is!

    My impression of how I want it to look like :

    Only the top panel will be carbon fiber , the rest is budget :P haha

    Updating later on

    Hello, you said "single mode diodes" i understand low power. As it will be low power, it will be low heating.
    Why all this fans ??

    By the way...nice box !

    I know its an overkill with those fans but im going to expand it later on like +6W power
    Also those fans are mostly going to be idle and temp controlled with PWM from arduino

    it is nice to keep the electronics cool. my single mode build was kind of toasty until i added some little fans.

    suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

    Nice job! I admire anyone who designs something BEFORE they build it.

    Finally after a week of programming on Arduino IDE
    I got myself a working tft display that shows me temp and has got 2 PWM output one for fan and one for TEC, with 4 thermistor for input
    This is a PID system that I can set specific temp setpoint, not so accurate but good enough for me, im happy

    When switching on:

    Stabilizing time for tec so no output

    when its ready

    Laser Emission on!

    More pics to come!
