Let's call it THE LIGHT ENGINE ;)

This is the optical module that generates visible light in the Mateminco FW1 (aliexpress) and Astrolux WP3 (banggood) LEP flashlights.
Although not visible in these pictures, there is a thin glass in front of the prism. The black plastic covering the laser seems to be 3D printed.
The module is built of aluminum and fits inside the neck of the wide part of the flashlight; the cylindrical surface was coated with gray thermal
paste to improve heat transfer. Once the back screws are removed, the module slids forward and must be taken out through the front
(after removing the protective glass and lens by unscrewing the crown).

Can anyone identify the laser inside? I need the specs because I want to run it on a separate driver, as the original flashlight PCB has a software problem.
I googled 1XRCL120073W but got no results. Or maybe someone can decode that QR matrix; my phone app didn't help.

The manual says the laser is a Nichia WP-Rx45, but I could not find info about this.
