wanted: Long can sleds (lpc-815)

**scoot** · 03-12-2009, 14:13

Hi people, Im building my first dual red and need to get a couple (3 would be nice) of lpc-185 sleds or somthing similar 200mw ish. Now laser surplus parts will not accept international orders I dont know anywhere else that I can get them from. Does anybody have any ideas or any spares?
Thanks.
Scott.

have you asked the good folks over at laserpointerforums? You might reach a wider range of vendors

Daedal is a cool dude with some good prices here
I think you need to be logged it to get the coupon code of PL10OFF to work. I am not sure of the make/model of the reds, but the desc looks good. PHR's there too.

Thank you very much Mike

The sleds are LPC-815's.

Nice one, this is just what what I needed. Now I can start buying stuff. What is the voltage/current of the 650nm diode in the lpc-815 sled for a reasonable life?
Cheers.
Scott.

Hey Scoot,
You can also look at this page for driver info. Towards the bottom is a picture I took of an lpc-815 diode being run at 330ma using one of Dr Lava's FlexMod2 drivers. I don't have a power meter YET, but it looks similar in brightness to my MaxYz module that is rated at 220mw, and the beam is even a little tighter. The one thing I have learned with these so far (being new to them myself) is to use a fairly light gauge & flexible pair of lead wires slodered onto the actual diode leads. I had one fail because the leads I used were too heavy, one became disconnected from torquing around the wires. Glue them in place also for extra security.
