I have been really interesting in setting up my own laser. I’d like to be 100% sure I know what to do and what I need in order to properly budget for my project.
I know I need things like a diode, heat sink, and lens. But I’m not sure what types of heat sinks-lenses to get.
For the diode I plan on getting a 5VDC 532nm 10mw laser.
To summarize I just need to know if what type of heat sink I get matters And if it dose what types of calculations do I need to do to figure it out. And just any general advice for a beginner.
