It is my burning laser diode?

I spent $ 40 buying a laser diode or the 200 MW project maglight burner kipkay and although I had heard that it's a bad idea to use a laser without a driver, you should try kipkay said diode with two naked AA. I tried two AAA hitters (which I think make it safe) and my kind of close together pins. At first, I kind of hot dark, so I let it cool. Then again operational, but a second later I see a little spark and now it works, the light is low, no effect of red light, nothing. Please help and is there any way possible to get this working or what I did wrong? If I do not understand what I'm going to be a panda very, very sad):

Yes, I think it burned. Despite using only two small batteries can still put more amps if the occasion. You should have put a resistor in series with them to limit the current amount to the diode laser can be used. I'm afraid is completely flat.
