Hey guys i really didn't want to start a thread to answer my question but i cannot find the information anywhere, so here it is.
Sorry if this very noobish.
I want to make my very first laser and have looked at the threads explaining what will be needed, but i am a little confused about what mA my driver needs to be and dependent on that how much power will be needed.
I am placing an order on LazerLabs and here it is so far;
I will be constructing this inside a box so i am able to get the grasp and learn how these things work before squeezing it into a nice torch like house.
Any help would be great.
Also any recommendations for a first build would appreciated.

- LPC-815 20x DVD Burner Sled. 660nm, 250-300mW
- AixiZ Module for 5.6mm Laser Diodes
- GhostDrive2 (What driver current do i need)
- UltraFire 18650 3000mAh 3.7V (Are the correct?)
