apart to see the parts. I don't know if it glued or screwed. The lens
is screwed and glued, but I don't want to fool with the focus
right now. I don't know if I can measure the laser current, but
I think I will try, and get all the current parameters before hooking
up the other controllers.

The opperating temperature of the current laser is above room
temperature.


Current conditions.

29 deg C
2 A
1.78 v
1.49 v idle


Its working with the new controllers. I didn't need to know much
other than what the previous settings were. If I were selecting
a new diode, then I should know a lot more.

You can safely adjust the temperature to see if that gets more
output power but you should NOT increase the diode current beyond
what it is now.
