Is there a sure fire way that will work and not burn out the lense anytime soon?

No, there is no sure fire solution. The scene can't decide on a sound fix. In fact I'm not so sure these fixes are even needed. I have heard reports of people that had there lasers burn our with out any fix and they simply replaced the laser with a new one and its now working again. This leads me to believe it might have been a simple problem with poor lasers on the initial release, but who knows for sure.

I have tried a combination of the diode fix and the PIC fix and they seem to be working good. But there may never be a problem with the lasers or V12's to begin with so who's to say its even needed. Its more of a peace of mind thing for people at this point.

I voted for the diode fix on your pole Hull as you dont have one for the PIC/Diode fix combo.
