I may be in on this if someone could build a working piece of kit for me (for a fee of course ;))

yes 24 diodes in each projector.

yes polarised and yes to cube.

beam wont be amazing but it also wont be bad. it wont be like a fat 635nm module or anything

Well... let's get some ordered and find out! *retardo
Even if it turns out to be "only" 100-150mW - fantastic!
Best case: 500mW! MEGA

Okay so if 10 lumens is 200mw in the pico projector.

2000 lumens is 40 watts in this thing.

now i think they are 500mw.

Also being multimode, that would lean towards being >>150mW? e.g. 500mW :)

These must be the ebay diodes..

I feel your pain aij...

only one way to find out.

Would a group buy be for UK/Europe only? If you guys are willing to work with US folks I'd be in for a few..

Worldwide, free shipping :)

Let's get that to that 20 limit so I can order asap! :p

If one pin is cut off on the ebay-diodes (the unused chassis pin) then they are exactly the same as these diodes from the casio projector.
