After reading up a bit on options for 520nm lasers around 1W I have decided to go the extra step to a NDG7475 diode. Here is a list of everything I am planning to buy:
NDG7475 1W 520nm Laser Diode
In 12mm Copper Module
W/Leads & G-2 Glass lens

S4X™ Host Assembly with
Aluminum Drilled Driver Pill
Extended & Tapered Length Copper Heat Sink
Link Here
BlitzBuck V5 Adjustable Diode Driver
Link Here
Power Supply
2x 18650 Batteries
Originally I was going to use a module with a x drive already connected here But I instead wanted a circular driver to make it a bit easier when putting together everything. My biggest question about my build is if anyone knows/assumes if I would have to adjust the blitzbuck driver or if it should be good as is. Because as far as adjusting a driver goes...I have no experience to do that but at the same time want a driver that will fit nicely into the ring that goes into the driver pill. It would be extremely helpful if anyone here with a decent knowledge of building lasers could look over everything I listed to assure I'm all good as well as address my driver question. If it does turn out I would have to adjust the driver then what would be the best way to go about installing the x drive with this module in the selected host's driver pill? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
