Half-decent American LEDs are already measured and grouped into BINs with very tight voltage tolerences.How do I determine their individual voltages?
How can I string together anything like this with LEDs if they vary so much?
It is shown connected completely wrong.The switch is intended to be an on/off switch for the whole thing.
If the power supply is connected backwards then all the LEDs might be destroyed.Will the polarity of the power supply matter as long as it is facing the right direction?

Here we go again.Would something like this https://www.instructables.com/id/Super-simple-high-power-LED-driver/ added to the circuit help to avoid overheating?
If a switch is connected in the wrong spot then it can cause a fire!I thought the switch could be added pretty much anywhere. Where does it need to go?
Most power supplies have a fixed voltage. Kicking it usually it does not change its voltage but the voltage might drop to NUTTIN).EDIT: I can change the voltage of my power supply, could I just kick it up to 19, 20, 22, or 24?
1 watt LEDs need all the heat sink you can give them.because most of the components are surface mount, can I cover most of the back in copper as a heatsink?
So keep the source at 24, but keep the strings around 20?
