My little science project, turn a DVD burner into a portable laser unit which can burn things ;-)

This is stage 1, tuning the laser @ low current and try to pop a balloon..
Laser on 3 volt AA batteries, current 130 milli amps, pot meter resistance 270 ohm

Stage 2 is light a match and pop balloons instantly at a fraction of a second.

Laser diode comes from an 18 speed NEC DVD burner. I've put a description on the laser community forum: http://www.lasercommunity.com/viewtopic.php?p=111838#111838
