Hi guys,
I am getting ready to do an amp rack and i want to run some led's to light it up. I was wondering if I was to run say 3, 4, 5 or 6 Cree XRE Q5 led's in series would this be ok without a driver? How many amps would they draw approximately? Do I have to run a driver or could I just run them in series with a fuse and switch right off the electrical system of the car?
How many lumens could I expect out of each of these. The lights will be on sometimes with the engine off as well as with the engine on, I assume they would be brighter when the engine is on.
Would I be better off with a 1000ma driver? how much brighter would it be with a driver?
Thanks in advance!!!!
