You need a red laser that's ready to drop into your build — not a bare die you have to hunt for matching optics. This Jaycar 10mW diode ships in a TO-18 package (5.6mm diameter) with a 7mm collimating lens already included and an inbuilt PIN photodiode for current feedback. Red output, 10mW, and the beam is shaped the moment it leaves the optics. No separate lens purchase, no guessing at the profile. Solder the leads, power it up, and you're good to go
