ok...so that will overdrive the L1P LED and make it really bright, right? :)

I find it hard to believe that a 1.5volt LED can handle 3.7 volts.

I've yet to meet a Luxeon that can't handle 3.7V Vf. Most require more. The driver board bumps the 1.5V to 3.5-4V. Depending on how the driver board does this, that can mean that 3.7 becomes 9.2V (which kills most Luxeons) or it can go into a direct drive mode. I don't know if the L1P goes into a direct drive mode, but the L2P can.

Both the L2P and L1P drivers can do direct drive once the input voltage exceeds the range.
