Okay information first:
CREE green LEDs,
3W each, 4.5V
I'm going to run seven of them using 3 D-sized 1.5v batteries so it's direct current. I've heard of circuit boards designed to work as power regulators to prevent them from sucking up the power from the batteries too fast, but these boards are usually designed for normal or superbright LEDs, not CREE. Also these boards usually can only handle about 3 or 4 LEDs, but I need to wire 7 of them. Can anyone provide a schematic with parts list for a more "heavy-duty" version of the power regulator board? Or does anyone have a link to a webpage with more information on that "heavy-duty" model?
Next I need a circuit board that allows LEDs to flash. Same thing again, some of these boards do not accept up to 7 LEDs. Also due to the LEDs being CREE I worry if the normal boards can operate them. A little advice please?
Thanks!
