I ordered a groove2 drive and have learned that it is the least efficient of all the dr. lava drives. So I have decided to turn it into my diode tester supply to make sure my diodes are working properly when I recieve them in the mail. What would be the easiest ways to set it up so it can test all diodes. I will just be using a standard 9 VDC powersupply as my input voltage, and will have the diode in its own heatsink with the driver attatched to the side of one of the fins of my heatsink. I would like to know the proper wiring methods for setting it up so it runs any diode I hook up, but mostly reds and blu-ray diodes. If anybody needs me to do a layout of how I want it to look when done then that is no problem just give me a little bit. Sorry if I confuse anyone with this post I tried to explain what I am doing the best way I can without pics. I'm still a noob so sorry if this is an easy thing to answer. i just couldn't find very much info on the forums.
Thanks,
Casey
EDIT: The pic below is similar to how I will have it laid out.
