I'm working on building a drop in pill that I can use in both T20 and T50 IR illuminators. It will need to be compatible with 1 and 2 cell setups. I want as much output as I can get while extending battery life as much as possible.
I have brass pillars, 2 different BD39 drivers. Emitters are ordered, awaiting delivery.

Before I start assembly, I wanted to check in with a more experienced group to be sure I'm matching components properly. I don't want to over drive the emitter and have it fail prematurely. Also, as battery life is important, I want to use a driver that is very efficient.
I solder and have a good working knowledge of electronics as a hobbyist, but LED's and drivers are new to me. I've tried to locate the information by browsing through the forum threads, with little success.
If there is a thread that can explain the concepts used while matching, please send me a link.
