This is a 405nm laser diode from an Xbox 360 HD DVD add on drive, mounted in a Dorcy flashlight. It is driven by a LM317 current regulation circuit at 35mA. The optical power output is Approximately 10mW. Feel free to message me if you have any questions. Song is with love by john frusciante

  • @bhennessee01 Blu-ray is the copyrighted name. I have a blue torch that put out a blue ray of light, but that doesn't make it Blu-ray. When people talk about Blu-ray lasers, they mean one out of an actual Blu-ray player, not just a blue coloured laser. The Blu-ray Disc Association developed Blu-ray, nothing to do with Sony.

  • hahahahaha wow major trolls. he jus screwed up. he not a robot like the rest of you all.

  • Wait... Xbox 360 blu-ray??? what??

  • xbox 360 doesn't have a blu ray drive ! :D :D :D

  • @Eyeball1975 Nothing to do with Sony? Sony started two projects in collaboration with Philips applying the new diodes: UDO (Ultra Density Optical), and DVR Blue (together with Pioneer), a format of rewritable discs that would eventually become Blu-ray Disc (more specifically, BD-RE). The core technologies of the formats are similar.

    Source is Wikipedia.

    Do your homework!

  • @DracoToxx Aluminium is the right English spelling. Look on Wikipedia. And it's Latin word and no "i" is omitted there too.

    Though you're completely right about Blu-ray, you're completely wrong about "aluminium" spelling. If it's "aluminum", you're from Canda. :D

  • @Themandudebro227 then next time don't contradict someone who is making a correction using the same generalizations i was correcting

  • @DracoToxx yes, I'm aware of that, it's just easier term then Blue/violet. I understand blu-ray is not used in Xbox 360's but most of the places I and many other people get are diodes is from Blu-ray burners, so we just call it Blu-ray. I'm sorry for contradicting you.

    Smile!

  • @Themandudebro227 BluRay is a copyrighted name, violet lasers are violet spectrum light lasers, just because people call ALUMINUM "ALUMINIUM" doesnt mean it is "ALUMINIUM" BluRays are BlueRays and blue/violet lasers are blue/violet lasers

  • @DracoToxx ummm, look on laserpointerfourms, any violet lasers are called Blu-Ray

  • @Themandudebro227 blue spectrum light laser doesnt make it a BluRay©

  • @DracoToxx yes it does, just doesn't say it does, I've taken apart two broken ones and used the diodes and cranked them at 125mA's and got 102mW's of violet...
