4 Red Diode Laser Modules
Retail {Not known}

(In reference to the box I received from J.B. in Belgium at 4:09pm PDT on 09-25-10):
{sung like the Foreigner song "Feels Like the First Time"}
These are small, pre-wired red diode laser modules. That is, they're ready to connect to any source of 3 volts DC that you happen to have handy; whether that's a pair of 1.5 volt AAA or AA cells, a 3 volt lithium CR2 or CR123A cell, or a "wall wart" type AC adapter that you know has a closed circuit output of 3 to no more than 4.5 volts DC and can deliver at least 25mA.

The modules on this web page came with no collimating optics, so there will be no "10 feet" photographs.


Size of product w/hand to show scale SIZE



To use the laser module, just connect it to any source of 3 to 4.5 volts DC via the included wires. Red is (+) positive, black is (-) negative.
There is no on/off switch; if you wish to use one you will have to supply and connect it yourself.



Because this device runs from any source of 3 to 4.5 volts DC, this section will contain very little additional information.
Just connect it to your chosen power source so that the red wire goes to the (+) positive, and the black wire goes to the (-) negative.

If (forward current) measures 19.90mA on my DMM's 400mA scale.
This is with a Vf of 4.50 volts (closed-circuit, not open-circuit), using an Aixiz laser diode module power supply unit specifically made for this application.



Because this is a component designed to be installed in something, and not a flashlight meant to be carried around, thrashed, trashed, and abused, I won't try to drown them in the toliet tank, bash them against a steel rod or against the concrete floor of a patio in effort to try and expose the bare Metalmarineangemon - er - the bare Metalflamedramon - um that's not them either...the bare Metaltogemon...er...uh...wait a sec here...THE BARE METAL (guess I've been watching too much Digimon again! - now I'm just making {vulgar term for feces} up!!!), let my mother's big dog's ghost or my sister's kitty cats spring a leak (uranate) on them, hose them down with a gun, run over them with a 450lb Celebrity motorised wheelchair, stomp on them, use a medium ball peen hammer in order to bash them open to check them for candiosity, fire them from the cannoņata, drop them down the top of Mt. Erupto (I guess I've been watching the TV program "Viva Piņata" too much again - candiosity is usually checked with a laser-type device on a platform with a large readout (located at Piņata Central {aka. "Party Central"}), with a handheld wand that Langston Lickatoad uses, or with a pack-of-cards-sized device that Fergy Fudgehog uses; the cannoņata (also located at Piņata Central) is only used to shoot piņatas to piņata parties away from picturesque Piņata Island, and Mt. Erupto is an active volcano on Piņata Island), send them to the Daystrom Institute for additional analysis, or perform other indecencies on them that a flashlight might have to have performed on them. So this section of the web page will be ***SIGNIFICANTLY*** more bare than this section of the web page on a page about a flashlight.

This web page look a lot like this one?
Thought you'd say so.
These products are extremely similar, so I was able to use their web page as a template for this one.
All of the photographs, spectrographic analyses, and measurements (current and optical output) are of THESE modules, but much of the rest of the text was left "as is"; only a few things were changed in it from that web page vs. this web page; a power output graph for all four modules was also added to this web page.

Only a single module was analysed in this fashion because
all four of them have extremely similar beam configurations.
