Belt tensioner upgrades from around $12
Do not need to upgrade firmware if running from TF card which is
preferable to runing on a laptop often.
All you are doing is using the 3d printer capability to run the laser using the fan motor output.
This may be done on a bltouch output also but would require editing the code to another GCODE instead of M106.
A 3d printer gives the advantage under lightburn of adjusting the z axis/height per burn pass.
Cura should connect to machine for exercising console mode for testing for laser issues. 
One could use a lesser power on the laser to verify path. Universal Gcode sender?
