first of all, I have to thank drlava for providing the group buy for these 150mW opnext diodes, and Pat for giving the opportunity to buy a double diode setup for hobbyists like me
this evening I have tuned a flexmod for driving one 642nm 150mW opnext diode, hooked it up, and did everything in order not to fry the precious diode
the collimator is not really the best I could have used, but my copper diode mounts and collimators have their barrel blocked hard (don't know why, need to find a tool to unscrew these two-hole rings)
the diode mount I used is a o-like type barrel with standard 3 lense collimator assembly
I have put the crystalaser unit I got from gogu (thanks mate, these are wonderful) and tuned a bit, for comparison
that color is BRIGHT, that's the only word I can say, and I only have one running now so I can't imagine the two diodes running together
here are the pictures!
