I recently bought 6 red laser diodes http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10091 too make a laser glove with. Before i made the glove i tried to test them, and couldn't get them to work. Am i doing something wrong, or are they broken?

According to the DX site, they're 5V. What you've got hooked up is a single 1.5V battery.

Might of been better off going for some modules that can do a lower voltage

What higher voltages did you try it with?
