My new laser in a phaser is using the latest state of the art, current record holder for the most powerful laser diode in the visible spectrum, the NUBM44 six watt blue diode. And I'm driving it with the biggest driver he had, 4.5A. But here is the fun part, I'm running it off of only 2 IMR 10440 Efest cells in series. They do it. They don't run it for very long, but they run it!

Don't know what's going on with the stun gun, but you seem happy about it. You know Sergey could explain it.
I looked at the Wicked Laser's a few years ago, but didn't pop although I really wanted one. Efest might not be making those cells anymore. The red 14500's I use have been out of production. I asked them why. They told me it was a lack of materials, and something else. I don't remember. The black 14500's rated for 800mAh are in production, but they don't have near the output of the red ones. They were underrated, and I told them about this. What happened is they canned the engineer who developed them, and he took all of his work with him. They had one of their engineers test them again, and came up new output of I think 4.5A. Check out Windfire. They have some hot ones. As far as the 14500's go they seem identical to the Efest 700mAh IMR's, and are half the cost. MXJO also has some good ones, but their 14500 tops are too wide for the birds. | ||||

I have a couple of neat builds recently completed. First, there is my super stun gun, using 2, 1 million volt transformer coils, it's brutally loud. Here is the funny thing, I put 4 electrodes on, and wired them X ways, as 2 in parallel, but despite my intentions, if fires them in series, almost like an H. And it doubles the output of the spark doing it, this thing is just nuts!
My second one is my new phaser, I forget if this one is version 3, or 4, now. But it's SIX WATTS of wanton blue destruction, which is just insane! It's the world's most powerful visible spectrum laser diode. And such is the state of the art that this entire project came in under $250, which is great, if you consider that the version 2 cost at least twice that, and was only 1.6 watts, and that was the diode of the day. SIX WATTS, just NUTS!! Now how can you possibly quantify the value of a six watt Star Trek Phaser? Really, it STARTS FIRES INSTANTLY! Oh, and get this, I'm running the bitch on just 2 IMR 10440 cells! They only run it for a minute or two, but they run it. I connected to my 10A power supply for a comparison, and the output looks identical, so the EFEST IMR batteries can do it! That makes those at least 8C or 10C. I really wasn't expecting those to work, they are only 350mAh, after all.
