LIST OF PARTS I USED (Links updated Jan 2012):

1W 445nm Laser diode - http://bit.ly/n7koWT

(It is possible to buy the diode pre-installed in an aixiz module, google it)
Heatsink - http://bit.ly/y7BMC8
Glass lens - http://bit.ly/zXrETA
Driver board - http://bit.ly/9go5LG
Switch - http://bit.ly/wYVCHu
Thermal/Isolating tape - http://bit.ly/9Esv7V
Many parts can be had for cheaper than the above links. Google it.

  • Could I use a 2w 445nm diode instead of the 1w? would it cause any damage? would I have to do anything different?

  • @Djakkennaia There are no 2W 445nm diodes as of now. You probably mean the same one I use, it's rated for 1W, but can be pushed to 2W with very good heatsinking.

  • @TheEpicElectricsz You can use 2xAA with a blu ray diode, but you have to use a different driver that supplies less current.

  • @TheEpicElectricsz and can i do this with a handheld laser shell with 2 AAA batteries?

  • can you use a blue ray diode?

  • "How to make a 1000mW laser"... "You need: a 1W 445nm diode".....You don't say?!

    It's like "How to make 1000ml of water. You need: 1L of water"....
