These are the brand new more powerful M140 diodes from the new M series projectors. They have shown a great increase over the previous A140 didoes that everyone else is selling. It is believed that these are the new 1.7W Nichia manufacturer rated diodes instead of the 1W Nichia manufacturer rated diodes that everyone else is selling as 2W over driven diodes. See this thread for details.
Extracted the safest way by using a no heat non pin stressing method. A
lot of seller will not want to take the time to do this and will just
use a soldering iron and this can burn the glue that holds the pins in
place. Leading to diminished life of your diode.
Max suggested current is 1.8A to the diode. Don't attempt
to connect directly to a battery you must use a current limiting driver. I do offer a boost driver that is
capable of driving this diode off a single Li-Ion see my other offerings below.
Diodes
are sensitive and should not be run or soldered until pressed in a
module/heatsink. laser diodes also are current hungry and should never
be run without a current limiting driver. Check my other items below for
an appropriate driver.
Diodes are tested to be in working order and packaged in an antistatic
bag. Please use ESD precautions and short your driver leads discharging
any capacitors before hooking up your driver to the diode.
The Aixiz 405/445 Three Element Glass or the Single Element G-1 lenses are the most commonly used with these diodes in conjunction with a 12mm Aixiz module as the diodes housing.
