Hey All,
I have 4 lasers with the same problem, The switch mode power supply has stopped functioning properly. They do power on but they only flash/pulse intermittently.
I have run the cause down to the switch mode power unit by A: switching them out between each other(the lasers are pretty much the same model) B: taking them to a 'specialist' who basicly told me they were broken... And C: fault finding with my limited knowledge.
I have used a multi meter across the outputs of the unit and the Voltage is slowly rising then dropping back down to a point that it can't sustain the required power output for the laser unit. I can also hear a fain ticking from the Switch mode power unit when it is plugged in, and the ticking is in time with the light output.
Any help would be greatly received as I am at a loose end.
Thanks In advance
Tim
