You might be able to use that LED driver depending on what
type of LD you are using...
Remember that the linked to LED Driver's specs state an output
current of 350mA or 700mA... That may be too high for some
Laser Diodes...

Thank you for your answer , next question is. I have a loc and a lcc (red) . From what I've read I think I can use either with this driver? (at 350ma) Also I have a few green pointers that I have taken apart . Could I use the heatsink from 1 of them with the lcc? The little sucker fits in there. I'm just not sure if its enough. Thanks Again ! I look forward to hearing back from you or anyone .
