I was at electronics shop and asked if they had any Luxeons and he did. Only they were these massive looking things with a big lens on it. I'm guessing the emitter is in there somewhere.
I diddn't take a good look at it but was wondering how easy it would be to remove the emitter from one of these things.

same deal as the stars, only you need to remove the optics first(just like in the pic)then desolder the leads.
the black collar that holds the optics will have to come off
so you can bend the heatsink with a couple of pliers.
