Where abouts can I get a really cheap 200mW red module? I have looked around and I am looking at around £270... Theres got to be cheaper ones somewhere.

Any wavelength as long as its in the red zone and either TTL or analogue are my only requirments.

Buy this:

And use it for the heatsink. An aixiz module fits perfectly, so you can take the 70mW module out, put in a open can, and maybe keep the driver for TTL modulation if you want it. If you don't, give it a rkcstr driver, and it will run on 6v.

Voila
