I ordered one of the 200mW models and two 50mW ones.
This laser should have a much better heatsinking than pen lasers, so i hope it will be better. The CR2 battery can supply the required current for a 0.5W diode (tested) and some of these new models even look like they have photo diode regulation, but those are probably lower power models.
It's pretty much what i want to transform my <200mW pen laser from DX into, by using the KD50 (EDWINA) body, so when i saw it, i just had to order it for testing and to see if it can be made any better (current regulation for starters, heatsinking improovement and so on).
Unfortunatelly, when i ordered it, it said "In stock" now they changed it to "out of stock" so i have no idea when they'll start actually sending them out. I wish DX had them because there, getting a replacement is a painless process. I suggested selling the same models to them, and they should be in this week.
What does OOS mean?
