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.

That solder joint may be a little dry.
The damaged capacitor could have damaged other components. Are you lasers definitely analogue? If it is RGB and TTL it will produce only 7 colours.
One of the more experienced here might have some better suggestions.

even if it was TTL he would still get magenta (red + blue) and teal (blue + green).

Partially yes, it prevents other company,s from copying. But it its also protects the manufacturer from being screwed by a customer. People have a habbit of turning pots to see if they can get more power for the same amount of money where the item is bought for. When its being tamperred by someone under warrenty it protects me from paying for the repair. A handful is honest and comes clean but the 99% will say it died by itself. With the use of tampering lables, glueing pots etc you prevent that people damage things with all the consequences. Sadly its nessesary that is the reallity these daysNot silly for manufacturers - it usually guarantees that people can't copy or repair their goods, meaning more sales. For the rest of us, it's a pain in the arse!

Guilty... Do you have any red laser modules available?

wet it up a bit. Still no luck. Perhaps the capacitor did damage some components up..

it may have nothing to do with the capacitor. laser diodes are sensitive and temperamental. they have been known to die if you look at the cross eyed.
often they're being overdriven in cheap projectors so the specs look better... at the risk of diode longevity.

so when I lower the intensity bar in LSX option menus to ~50% or lower, the laser gods are happier?
also, turning on the projector, I simply plug the main PSU into the wall and immediately everything turns on. I don't of ANY on/off switches installed at the moment, is this any threat to the diodes?
is it possible the leaking capacitor affected the laser diode? unit is (http://www.ebay.com/itm/500mW-650nm-...340#vi-content) because the laser itself was running like an ox, I felt like it could run all day

that module you listed has a craptastic big square beam.
you'll no doubt find a helpful person here that can fit you up with a much better option.
