Ive been almost exclusively making P7 Maglite mods in the past. And I've decided to move on and start to use higher powered LED's such as the SST-90. I'm more than aware that theres only one driver designed for the SST90 (Der Witchel), but its only a 1 mode. And that you can make your own driver using multiple DX drivers to achieve the ~9amps for full power. I know I cant use four of these, because four of them obviously wont fit inside the vacant room inside a D cell Maglite. So I ordered four of Downloads 2.8amp drivers. My question is, what wiring configuration do I need to wire them to output ~9 amps? Also, I'm using six D NiMh cells, and each DL driver can only take in ~6volts.



This is how I plan to wire up the drivers, but I want to be sure im doing it right, can I get a confirmation please, and maybe some tips? Thanks.
