That is a good thread.
Since I want reliability, each of my P7's will get its own driver.
By wiring 3 drivers in series, each will get 4v from my 12volt battery.

What are you building? How much space to do you have?

I have wired multiple emitters like this using a 3 mode 7135 driver several times. It works well provided all your connections are very good, and resistance is low ie use thick wire for best result. Also its a good idea to heat sink the driver.

As for how many batteries to use, you want one 18560 per LED so in your case 3.
