I am considering getting a K40 type laser in the next few months, among the very many mods and improvements I will be doing is the addition of a Cohesion controler board. As I understand it, this runs smoothieware, I don’t know much about this and assume that Lightburn will sort out all the clever stuff. My main question is how to set a maximum power in the controler to extend the life of the tube, in GRBL i think this can be done using $30, does this work with the Cohesion board or is there another way to achieve the same result?

On the K40 you just set the max power on the panel, using a milliamp meter to verify, then the C3D / LightBurn chooses a percentage of that.
