So this is what I have, a 30mW 532nm module rescued and resoldered from a dead driver, and an old infrared flashlight housing. I think it would make a great housing for the module, but i've ran into some problems:
The flashlight case has a switch in the bottom, which to my understanding uses the flashlight body as the negative lead. I've been thinking CR2 or smth as the battery but if I want to use the two-position clicky switch I have to solder the module's own switch shut and wire accordingly?
Also what could I use to mount the module to fill the diameter of the cap?
(Oh and the ruler is a metric one).
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: added a pic of the tailcap switch
