Waterproof Green Laser Flashlight from Rayfoss

Here is a mini-overview of the 50mW waterproof green laser from Rayfoss. Rayfoss Sells these in red, green, and violet, and in powers from 10mW to 200mW. The flashlight case itself comes in black, gray, and chrome. When ordering this laser, don’t use the checkout system on their site (rayfoss.com), just email them your order and you will save a lot of time and hassle.

Here is my text review: http://styropyro.com/reviews/rf50.htm

Just a note, do NOT put in the battery backwards, the reverse polarity will fry this laser in an instant.

DIY Green Laser Pointer mod resistor on opposite side than button turns 5mw to 35mw

A while back I bought a green laser from Hong Kong on Ebay, worked great. After watching the videos on this site I decided to boost mine up, which I did and it worked great. Actually was able to pop balloons with it. I eventually lost it (of course) but found another similar looking one at Fry’s Electronics here in Dallas, TX. They had black and silver, both looked exactly like the model I got from Hong Kong. The black on e was $10 more so I bought the silver (who cares). Anyway, When I returned home to mod this one, I found out it was different than my last one (my dumb didn’t look inside to check before I drilled, stupid stupid)

This design has the resistor on the opposite side of the board (opposite the button) so drill your hole accordingly.

(Again leaping before I looked, I drilled mine to far above the resistor, which made adjusting it a pain.) The fortunate thing was that since I drilled it in the wrong spot when I went to adjust the small screw on top of the variable resistor I touched the side of the case with the screw driver. Just like mag light flash lights the case is part of the circuit in these as well.

Long story short, the adjusting of the resistor didn’t really do anything, but grounding the top of the resistor to the side did the trick.

So in my vid you see a wire thats touching the top of the resistor inside the laser, and sticks out the hole i drilled, and is pressed down on the outer casing of the laser (grounding it to the case) Its glued for now but Ill solder it later.

Sorry about the blur photos but I’m sure you’ll get the idea.

Cant promise this mod will work for you but it did on this one. What I’m saying is if you jack yours up don’t come crying to me.

DIY: How to Modify a Green Laser Pointer into a Burning Laser

This step-by-step tutorial shows you how to modify a “True 5mW” green laser pointer into a burning laser. This is very easy to do and is 100% legal in the US. This mod is perfect for people who are limited to 5mW pointers by import laws, because importing a bare module over 5mW into the US is legal.

Parts:
“True 5mW” Laser Pointer – http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.91~r.93098389
“200mW” (closer to 100mW-150mW) laser module – http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.26891~r.93098389
