I think this one counts as flashlight modding since it started as a flashlight!
I recently discovered the new 520nm green laser diodes that don’t require the frequency doubling stage that regular 532nm green lasers need, which means I could finally build one as small as I wanted. I gutted a Nitecore Tube and turned it into a 30mW rechargeable green laser pointer with some extra firmware features.
Whoa. Tell me more more about the 520nm green laser? Do you know if weapon mounted green lasers use a 532nm green laser(Surefire/Streamlight)? I wonder if a 520nm could be installed in my TLR-6? I see you’re in North Carolina. Hmmm…
I watched the video… Your skills are impressive, like, really ! I can’t even stack some 7135 and you air wire such a tiny resistor
I made a 520nm laser in a Thrunite Ti5Ti but I kept the entire module as is…
520nm laser are generally well regulated, and don’t emit IR. 532nm are another story, because they’re based on an IR diode and a crystal that divide the wavelength by two, to get the green color… but lots of leaking IR
