Surplus LD vendor

Yes! You should be so lucky to order LDs from Kevin.

I ordered the LD's I used in my 'Big Red' laser pointers from Kevin (there's a thread on these somewhere). Not only did he measure the proper Iop for each diode (it can vary by a factor of two between diodes from the same manufactorer - I had no laser power meter to determine) but after I blew the first two diodes he mailed me (cuz I didn't really know what I was doing) he mailed me another two gratis.

Shipped quickly too. Highly recommended, he knows LDs.
 
Yep, I'm looking for an 808nm, but not for a greenie, so I'm not too worried if it doesn't hit exactly 808.00 nm. Thanks for mentioning it though!
