Ok, so I've had this host for some time now and couldn't do much with it as the heatsink was to big for an aixiz module. I also recently bought some of the overspec ebay lasers everyone was taking about. So i said why not harvest a module and put it in a host?? so thats just what i did. I took a dremel right in the side of the Pen laser and split it to extract the module. I then took the dremel to open the heatsink up a little more so i could fit the module inside of it. the 532nm module it about 13mm in side.
so here is everything.
Here is the module. I sanded it down a bit so it would fit in the heatsink better.
I used a duracell 123 battery with a magnet on the negative to make good contact with the one side of the side clicky switch.
I stretched the spring out so i could run it of the single battery.
The spring touched the top the other side of the side clicky to complete the ground.
And the finished project! the lens works well for focusing.
Edit: with the great idea from Sinner i was able to get a nice focus adapter on it. now it looks professional.

Thanks for looking!
