I currently have two shitty red <5mw lasers and am fed of of running them from batterys, i was thinking that i might be able to use a power supply from an old computer? they have about 5.3v dc from which i assume is regulated so as not to blow the electronics in the computer.
has anyone tried this?
also what would be the best way to simply reduce the voltage to about 4.5v? would i just use a resistor? (i expect this is blatently obvious hos to do but just wanna be sure)
