This is my first post so please bear with me.
I have read allot and just finished making a small task lite.
I used a Luxeon Star O with a 9volt dc wall wart feeding
a LM317 for the driver
It works great and I am getting a regulated current of just under 350ma.
Now my question is about the voltage. At 1.25 volts is this not under the voltage required to light up a Luxeon.
The light output is great but I need to understand the relationship to voltage and current before I make up a new driver for a LuxIII.
Thank you , and this is a great forum.
