The spec sheet says 3.6 volts and 20mA. I'm guessing a X1 circuit is more than 20mA, but I'm not sure. Is this NSHU590B thing only suppose to be used with keychain lights? TIA.

I do not know how much current the x1 supplys to it's stock led. I do not know how a Nichia NSHU590B handles being overdriven.(probably will handle it just fine - you will probably not use it as much as a white x1) I am pretty sure you will not hurt the converter electronics.
