Some of you may remember the 650nm build I did with my HDS a while back, unfortunately that diode eventually 
d on me 'cause I was seriously overdriving it. Well, when these new diodes came out they seemed the perfect match for the available current levels in my HDS and I just had to try it out:naughty:. So here's the new setup, I don't have an LPM so power is guesstimated based on current to the diode:
Level 4- 250ma/ 250mw
Level 3- 400ma/ 400mw
Level 2- 667ma/ 650mw
Level 1- 1200ma/ >1000mw:devil:
Button lock enabled, force setting to come on at level 4 for safety. Custom aluminum heatsink with Aixiz 445nm lens.
And here's my Mag XL100 build, seemed like a neat idea at the time. It's direct drive with all the cool XL100 features intact, which means dimmability, button lock, strobe, etc. It has a custom 1 1/2oz aluminum heatsink with a pressed in Aixiz module and 445nm lens. Current draw is about 600ma on a fresh set of Lithium AAA's which should put it around a solid 500mw or so on high. I actually remembered to get pics of this one before assembly too:twothumbs.
Let me know what you think,
