Hey all
I just came across a Luxeon power supply kit over at altronics, an electronics store i frequent.
The board is probably too big to be of any use for most, apart from indoor lighting applications. However it would be great for anyone wanting to learning the basic ins and outs of a switch mode LED driver.
Enjoy

A simple switchmode power supply module which is capable of powering up to two 1W/3W luxeon stars, or alternatively a single 5W luxeon star. The unique switchmode regulation employed means that it is very efficient and produces very little heat. Its 12V input makes it perfect for boats, cars, caravans. Anywhere low voltage lighting might be required.
The project can be powered from any 12V DC (nominal) supply and can be set up to source 350mA, 700mA or 1000mA of regulated current to suit all of the Luxeon Star LED range.
Features
Powers one or two 1W or 3W Stars, or a single 5W Star
High efficiency for minimum battery drain
Low battery cutout (11.5V)
Input polarity & transient protected
Output short-circuit protected
Ideal for use in boats, caravans & car
