I realize I don't have any experience in luxeons but I was thinking how hard would it be to find a thermistor to wire into a luxeon driver to automatically limit current when it started getting too hot. In theory it sounds simple but finding the right thermistor would probably pose the most challenge. If you could get a small enough thermistor you could put it in any luxeon light and even put luxeons in plastic lights that will scream when cold and slowly dim as they heat up too much saving a burnout. This could also come in handy on underwater lights as the water may help cool more thus the throttling down of the thermistor would be considerably reduced.
The question is.. could it be done right and would it be worth the trouble?
