A question for experienced LED modders (or EEs):
I peeked inside the lamp assembly of my streamlight 4aa 7LED and saw 12 ohm resistors! I assume 7 leds are in parallel because 6v would not drive a series circuit with 7 leds (3.6v drop each.) Could it be a combo circuit?
I don't want to take this assembly apart - this is one of my favorite lights.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Is there a formula that takes into consideration the maximum current that can be delivered by 4AA batteries? (I'm sure that this must have something to do with the 12 ohm resistors)
