hi guys, i think i killed my laser diode by heat while i was soldering, it used to work perfect, but one day the wire went out, so I opened the housing, and trying to solder it back, but for some reason, it took me too long to solder it back, and when I got it back, i turned it on, the light was only like 20% bright as it used to be, and after 1 minute, it died!! so i just want to ask you guys how to check my driver is workin or not!? because im gonna buy another diode for sure but not sure about a new driver. thanks, I'll be appreciate with you helps!

updates: I know I can use a dummy, but i dont have one, so is there anyways to check while im waiting my another diode?
by the way, perhaps my driver dont work, or not working properly, will it kill my new diode?
