well, each laser runs at 3V2... the usb provides 5V... we have a Delmore...you *could* runs two sets of series in parallel but then they would only get 2V5 each....the best thing i can think of is getting a 3V regulator with a 500mA output and using that to step down the voltage.
Soren thanks for the information. The red led sounds like a better solution for me as i could use a red led in my setup. How would i know if it's ok to run them this way? All i know about the laser is that it's 3.2V, 25 mW, and between 40-60 mA (probably 40). So just to get this straight - in this case i would need two usb's since im using two lasers? Or can i just use one usb to drive both lasers? If so, how would that connection work? Thanks for you help.
