Can someone recommend me a driver?

[dragonizer]

I am trying to build a laser pointer. Can someone recommend me a driver?
(I read through the forums and saw a few drivers, like x-drive, e-drive and ghost drive, but don't know which one to get, also, can you include where to get them from?)

Here's what I am planning to use:

M140 445nm 2W diode (to run on 1.7A)
2 18650 Sony / Panasonic batteries (7.2 to 7.4V total)

An advanced thanks.
