Dangerous Christmas Laser Show Upgrade - 1000x Stronger

Yeah don't do this one at home kids.

In this video I tear down a cheap laser projector that I bought at Farm and Fleet, and do a bunch of mods to it so I could jam in a 5W blue laser diode. The puny little power supply couldn't handle the huge laser, so I had to make a new driver from scratch. Plus, the original optics melted almost immediately, so I had to upgrade them so they wouldn't explode after being hit with 1000x their rated power.

More videos coming soon! In the near future I'm planning on doing videos on wireless energy transmission with lasers, testing more crazy recipes from the chemical formulary, as well as some other stuff. Stay tuned!

Wow, I'm about to cross the 100,000,000 view mark...
