    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    It's cheap, easy to connect and use, you don't need any resistant or so, it don't get hot.
    Cons:
    I don't find one so far. Others said it can be easyli short circuited, but I don't have that problem.

    5 mW red light laser with focusing lens

    posted by dirkm5 on 11/04/2012 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    This laser LED looks similar to SKU 133778, rated to be 5 mW. To operate with a 5V power supply, a series resistor is required. I used a series resistor of 1.2kOhhm, resulting in 2V over the laser and a current of 2.5mA, resulting in 5 mW power dissipation....
    Cons:
    Had to bend wires between circuit board and laser module to eliminate the short circuit.
