    Re: Green laser pointer power boosting CRAP!! The part where the little wire come out of the body that is soldered to the chip board just snapped, guess i shouldnt have played around with it to much. Maybe i can get it soldered back.. if only i knew which wire needs to be soldered :/

    Re: Green laser pointer power boosting Woo!! Well, it is brighter.. but i havent found the sweet spot yet! because i twist and put it back in the case ( cant find alligator clips yet must be in attic ) the dot is alot bigger and brighter even pointed at houses etc, the strange thing is...

    Re: Blinded by a green laser Done what you said, the whole thing is loose now. Once i get the alligator clips its time to test.. i sure hope this makes a bi difference from 5MW. BTW my dad doesnt understand how just turning that part makes a difference, but we're going to try anyway.

    Re: Blinded by a green laser Huh?!.. alright now i am confused, what do you mean you have to just rotate the assembly?? do you mean i hold the circuit board and twist the diode body?!.. I dont understand, but ill be beat if this actually makes my laser much more powerful. Take laser out...

    Re: Blinded by a green laser Disys... my dad is having a hard time following the instructions you gave about modding my laser, any chance of showing an edited picture on how to do it? Would be most grateful, thanks.

    Re: Blinded by a green laser I'm not sure, do you know if the beam is more intense with a bigger halo around it?!! It says to turn the screw thing clockwise in the mod text but it seems to be dimmer ( no halo ) but as i turn it anti clockwise it gets brighter but a bigger halo around it on...

    Re: Blinded by a green laser No, mine does exactly the same thing. It's not a problem with the laser.. its giving out to much power for the first second or so. I remember that even the older red pens used to do it aswell.

    Re: Blinded by a green laser This mod will work for my 5MW leadlight? Thanks

    Re: Blinded by a green laser i cant test the MA on my laser, i got the voltage reader but no damn 3V powersupply to test it with.. in any event, i turned the screw anti clockwise and the dot was brighter ( but got a much bigger fireball effect around the dot ) I turned it clockwise a little...

    Re: Blinded by a green laser My dad says he seen no resistors on the board :-/, i cant see them either. Only way to try out now is to test the amp reading and see whats going through, maybe it'll work anyway

    Re: Blinded by a green laser You have to change surface mount resistors to enable more power to go thorugh?? bah that means mine is probably the same.. is this difficult? What resistors do i change exactly and what with?

    Re: Blinded by a green laser Alright.. ive taken the laser apart, getting the tip of it off was a pain.. and at some point i thought i was gonna destroy the laser, my dad went around the tip with a stanley knife for a few minutes.. no luck, so after that i got the plyers out again and used the...

    Re: Blinded by a green laser The laser is good, if you had a crappy red pen in the past you'll notice the difference. I have a leadlight from Thinkgeek, i am gonna mod it as soon as i knife it open to get plenty of extra mw's! i cant wait to see how much brighter and how much further the beam...

    Re: Blinded by a green laser Thanks man, the knife is the answer!! not the plyers but the knife.. Btw i have the 5MW version, exactly how many MW's could i make it without it overheating any clues?! The top of mine already has scratches on it :-/ but its not much.. worth the risk of a little...
