Hi! I've come upon this thread: http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/...d.php?t=192418, and I would have continued my issue on it, but it is from 2006, so I guess I wouldn't have received many replies.



You can see in the pictures from that thread that there is a bend in the copper tube that gets glued to a transistor (or I dont know what other part of the driver). My question is, which part/s of the driver generate the most heat and therefore need the heat dissipation? Ive bought this LED driver (DX sku.20329) and I would like to build a heatsink like the one in the thread, but I dont know what to glue the copper tube to. Thanks
