900mW 16X 405nm BDR-209 Blu-Ray Diode
Listing is for a single 3.8mm 900mW 16X 405nm BDR-209 Blu Ray diode. This is the most powerful 405 diode available. When driven @ 600mA using a proper laser driver you can expect 900mW+ with a G-2 lens and 650mW+ with a three element 405 AR coated glass lens but the diodes. Efficiency will vary a little and I have seen some hit as high as 1.1W with a G-2. The best lens options are the Aixiz 405/445 Glass Lens or the more powerful 405 G-2 Lens. The current must be limited to no more than 700mA to the diode but suggest 600mA for best life expectancy. Don't attempt to connect directly to a battery or other power soruce. A laser driver must be used to drive the diode. I do offer a boost laser driver that is capable of driving this diode off a single Li-Ion see my other offerings. All modules are tested and are in working condition prior to shipping. The diodes are professionally extracted from replacement sleds for the BDR-209 Blu Ray Disk Burners so the pins will be a few mm shorter than a diode direct from the manufacturer and will have some tinning on them.
