I have a 'sharp lt026' 780nm, 3mW laser diode from a olivetti pg306 laser printer. I presume this is a common wavelength (near the top end of infrared scale, possibly visible?). I was going to try building a cheapo low speed data tranfer using it but i don't know the units focus or how its aligned...
