With the stay at home stuff kicking ive been trying to placate my OCD ADD etc nervious issues with hobby projects,
I have used leds as long as i can remember but still have a lot to learn,
In this case im repurposing for lighting on a custom large scale rc buggy build,
I had several small flashlights that plugged into a cars cig lighter to charge, while charging they had a bright blue light near the reflector edge,
When turned on they had a very bright white single led, so when they stopped working and i took one apart the battery appears to be 3 large button cells shrunk wrapped together
3.6 volts so i assume when the light was on it was fed full volts,
What i did was wired the blue and white leds in series hit them with 6 volts and both light up,
My question is this very bright "flashlight" white leds the same mid 3 v as other white leds?
Will it draw a lot of juice to use it?
Next question,
Here is a genetic imported led light for rc cars, its all wired up to go,
https://www.killerrc.com/collections/led-lights-amp-mounts/products/baja-led-headlight-ea
They advertise that it will work on 3 to 10 v
that has me a bit confused,
Most rc lights plug into the vehicles receiver which most run 6 v and output 6 v to lights,
I assumed this light with 12 leds was wired in 4 sets of 3 in series to fed each led about 3 v.
Anyway, how can this light have such a wide voltage range 3 - 10 volts wouldnt 3 be low and 10 be high, out of goldilocks zone?
Thanks for into,
Stay safe,
Cheers
