They are the same. Only the format is different. You will need the $5.99 one.

A linear driver will just turn all the extra voltage in heat ! very inefficient !
A buck driver uses the extra voltage for lower current drain ...
If you got some skills in soldering you can easily build your own linear driver for a few bucks ...

Yes but the LM317 is to weak for an high power build !
You will need an L200 for this ...
A buck driver will cost you at least 20 Bucks you can get it everywhere just look at DTR's shop for example
