Hi,
As you can see at the bottom of this picture the two pins of the diode are put onto the two little pads of the driver, however there is a third pin on the back which I assume is soldered onto the pad on the back. What is the point of doing this? and do I even need to?
I just want to check everything is right before I put batteries in as I have seen so many stories on here of people killing their drivers or diodes.
As you can see this is my first post and I'm also quite new to lasers, while I have done quite a bit of research I'm just still a little doubtful about things.
here is the link to the site with the picture:

This is also where I got most of my stuff.
