I've done this once, but limited myself with a 1.4a board, this time I went all out with it, I like high CRI lights, so I figured why not!
So I went with this board, http://www.illumn.com/leds-drivers-...s/8xamc7135-3-04a-selectable-mode-driver.html left in stock configuration, and this led, http://www.illumn.com/leds-drivers-...cree-xm-l2-bare-s6-7d3-tint-2900k-90-cri.html
Got the board filed down to fit, got the LED soldered on the board, no problems so far!
Then I go to test it, problems! It flashes two or three times to show power, but the switch does not function! Nothing! I've always been afraid to push the upgrades on this light because I've heard the switch can be iffy, at best, with higher amperage drivers.
Any thoughts, suggestions, sage words of wisdom or otherwise are more than welcome, PLEASE!
Thanks in advance!
Edit, also when I try shorting from the battery to the battery tube, with the switch off, I get nothing?
