Listing is for a single 700mW 12X 405nm S06J Blueray Diode in a standard 12mm copper module with leads attached. 
This is a genuine S06J 405nm diode not the lower efficiency more sensitive 12X diode from the SF-BW512L that are often sold as S06J. When driven @ 500mA you can expect ~770mW with a G-2 lens and ~570mW with a three element 405 AR coated glass lens but the diodes. Efficiency will vary a little and I have seen some hit as high as 850mW with a G-2 glass lens being driven @ 500mA.


Please Note this is a standard copper module which comes with an acrylic lens in it. It can not handle the power this unit can put out. It will keep dust and contaminates out of the module until you are ready to put yours in. Replace with your glass lens of choice before powering the module. The best options are the Aixiz 405/445 Glass Lens or the more powerful 405 G-2 Lens.

Save yourself the headache of extracting, pressing and soldering on your diode. Just add host, heatsink and driver. The current must be limited to no more than 500mA to the diode. Don't attempt to connect directly to a battery you need a laser driver to power this diode. I do offer a boost driver that is capable of driving this diode off a single Li-Ion see my other offerings below. All modules are tested and are in working condition prior to shipping.

Modules are wired with extremely flexible 26AWG wire that is burn proof and makes for very easy soldering.

If this is your first laser build here is a great place to start.


 

Diodes are current hungry and as they heat up their internal resistance is lowered causing them to want to draw more current. Don't attempt to connect the diode directly to a fixed voltage source like a battery. You must use a proper laser driver with the current limited to no more than 500mA or you diode will suffer thermal runaway and die. I do have options for the diode in module with driver if you need. See my other listings.:)


Here is the Pinout for the diode


If you are looking for a host here are some of the more popular host/heatsink kits that will work with these diodes and if you want something that is not listed in those links that I show in my tutorials below shoot me a message and I can point you in the right direction for them.;)





Sony 12X S06J Laser Diode


Been working off Morgans old testing data and the graphs that were made from it which can be seen here.


New Kid On the Block S06J



So here is a nice new testing thread on it. It has been around a while so no need for long introduction. Test done with a G-2 lens.

































Here is one of my favorite hosts. The Sirius 1-C





 

Here is a list of tutorials I have made and experiments that can help give you ideas for your next project.
