guys, you don't take apart the ps3 for the diode. you buy the sled with the diode off ebay for 85 dollars, stop saying you destroy a 600 dollar ps3 for the laser and read the earlyer posts

| Why do something like that? It's a love for lasers, but that's just killing one of the greatest consoles ever made. |

| meh i could argue that point, but most blu-ray players are even more expensive then ps3s so at one point ps3's were the cheapest way to get these diodes |

| Believe it or not, but there have been people that have wrecked their PS3's already or they just crapped out for whatever reasons. I had my hands on a broken PS3 and I contemplated taking it apart for the Blu-Ray laser, but then I found out how much work it would be so I just sold it to someone else. Oh and by the way, do a google search for the PS3 Grill. Some people out there have done some really strange things with damaged PS3's. |

Good question... Every PS3 diode has 3 lasers in it, plus a photodiode to monitor output. Technically speaking, and with a very steady soldering hand, you can turn one PS3 diode into a 3-color laser pointer... granted you have enough electric circuit knowledge to make a smart enough circuit capable of driving all 3 lasers.
The 3 colors are
* Violet... for BluRay disks
* Red... for DVDs
* IR... for CDs

They diverge diffrently if you don't have apochromatic or achromatic lenses I think. |

| lol. ps3 is not cheap in the first place. if we want to get a violet laser out of it we might as well just get the real stuff. |

Read the whole topic, man. We're talking about disassembling a PS3 sled. Which is only a reader. Not the whole PS3. It costs about $80 on ebay..  |

Actualy, the 3 colors all come from one diode. I saw it on eBay, the thing has like 5 pins. It's called a BRIR diode. And you really will need that achromatic lens.
