Need opinion on drivers

[Newb]

I am thinking of buying two 1w drivers from ebay for my 2w blue laser but I can't measure the output so do you think it would be okay to use or would it harm the diode in any way?

Which driver should I buy to get the full 2 watts for my 445nm laser? http://www.cajunlasers.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=4&sort=20a&page=2

Take this Mohgasm 1.8A linear driver circuit [MOH1.8] - $14.99 : Cajunlasers Store

Heatsink require.

Just making sure but this can be used on a 445nm laser correct? If you know can you tell me the exact output in mw? This really helped thanks

I don't know what output you'll get, depends from your diode and lens.
With a M140 diode you'll get 1.6-2W with 3 element Glass Lens and 1.8-~2.3watt with G1/G2 Glass Lens.
