One advantage of andy's modules is electic insulation, so you can operate green lasers in them even if your main board is connected to ground, without resorting to negative drivers.
I suppose all these things just solve a round-peg-square-hole problem to some degree, i havent found the cheapest or best option myself yet. It's all about making a decent thermal connection from an aixiz module to a decently sized heatsink - i wish they just made square aixiz modules ;p
