I'm having a rough time trying to choose a good host and heatsink combo for a 3w, 445nm, 9mm laser diode that will run off of 2 18350 LiMn batteries. What is a good choice with a large heatsink at a fair price (around $50)?
Here's the diode, module, and driver combo I'm going with (it's the $120 option):

Here's one host I was looking at but the heatsink seemed a tad small for 3w:

Any help would be great.
