[E3 rules]

I was with my friend and he asked me if its plausible to pot mod e3 somehow and does any one know how to do it?

Ya, but I wouldn't recomend it at all. I have done it with a 32mw laser I bought a few years ago and once you break the seal you pretty much expose the internal circuitry to moisture, debris etc... Not to mention it shortens the life of the diode and there is a big chance you may end up with a nonfunctional laser if you don't do it properly. If you really feel the need to tinker with pot moding I suggest getting one of those cheaper pointers that are pretty much available anywhere and watch the pot mod video ( look it up on youtube) and then you will see that taking a high quality laser apart to try to increase power isn't worth it

Since you say plausible, not possible, it's not very plausible no.

Also i wont ruin my laser cuz my friend asked me he wanted to pot mod hes still thanks for the info:D

pot mod the core its SOOOOOOOOOOO easy! pull out the button, stick a screwdricer in the little hole, turn it untill your satisfied, put the button back, and your done!

And screw up everything and waste $30.

You forgot about shipping

Correct, Although when I have a laser diode module suitable for the CORE's host I need some info on how to dissassemble it. I do not have a vice.
