These encapsulated laser diodes are Class IIIa 5mW, with a 650nm red wavelength. They can be driven from 2.8V to 5.2V so they're great for your embedded electronics project. You can use these for laser harps, electronic 'trip wires', laser-vision guidance, and more! Simply connect power to the red and black wires and you will be lasing in no time. Please note: this is not a laser pointer. It's a diode with integrated driver. You still need a 3 to 5VDC power supply. These diodes are 5mW output, and have a safety label marked on them.

But those that make it after you, they don't have to worry about making it. And they can make it pretty, and so everybody can like it when others make it after you" Pablo Picasso FAQ SHIPPING & RETURNS TERMS OF SERVICE PRIVACY & LEGAL ABOUT US ENGINEERED IN NYC Adafruit (R) 4.9
