Hey guys, When is a ideal current for all laser diodes, 50mW?

I'm going to build a LM137 driver, I have a LM137 regulator from my old hobby which was tinkering with High Voltage, and electronics, etc.

all laser diodes are different, what diode are you using?
and also do you mean LM317 or actually LM 137?

No such thing.
The same current that kills one diode is not enough for stimulated emission in another one.
