Hi all. My first post! - ever, any message board! Hope it works.
I was wondering if anyone has info on any available DC-DC converters that can drive 5W LS LED's from a 3V source. I think 3V is a good voltage as it can be had by many combo's of batteries. I have personally had to whip one up that fits into a 3X D cell Maglight and as it was successful I am trying to get a feeling in the interest for such?. If there are others out there, then so be it. But I'd like to know. If not, I can share the lessons learned and post the circuit. Not sure of the best topic (LED's or homemade...).
