    "CAN Bus bulbs should not be used in non CAN Bus applications"?

    You're mostly right here, but you need to go even further with this line of thinking. At least in the modern vehicles I'm the most familiar with, the CAN bus, if it has one, has nothing to do with monitoring the status of any of the light bulbs in the car. Individual sensors are unlikely to be...

    Heatsink for Cree XQ-D LED

    Thanks. I figured that was the easiest way to make some fairly substantial copper traces to dissipate the heat from the LED. I'll make ones that look a little cleaner once I'm confident that it will work ok. I'm going to heatsink the voltage regulator it's running off of, hook it up to a wall...

(Yes, I know it's not meant to be hand soldered, but I don't have any way to reflow solder it correctly.) After doing some thinking, I decided...

    Heatsink for Cree XQ-D LED

    I'm planning to use some Cree XQ-D LEDs for a project I'm working on. They seem to have a maximum current of 700mA. I only plan to run around 320mA. They will not be mounted anywhere close to each other. Just one LED by itself. Does anyone have any guidance as to what kind of heat sinking they...
