So it says that "All other colors should be ran at 1000mA, other than red."
Does this mean I can wire the greens in parallel (with an appropriate resistor) and wire the white separately (With an appropriate resistor) ?
Thanks!

Also, would I use a .47 ohm, 1/2W resistor for the greens wired in parallel? As for the white, I have no idea what the resistor could be, since no specs are given on a "white" rebel star...

Specs for the Rebel LEDs can be found on the store page: http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Luxeon-Rebel-Star-P523.aspx

Ah thanks! I now know the white rebel star values.
So I would wire the greens in parallel?
Thanks!

WHAT are you wiring them to? And what battery are you using?

Wiring to the Nano Biscotte V2, 3.7 Volt battery ;)

I really want to use either the Petite Crouton or the PRIZM, but I'm still broke XP

You have to wire them in parallel, and use a resistor for each die.

ok thanks. So I'll need two .47 ohm, 1/2W resistors (for the green) and one 1 ohm, 2W resistor (for the white)

I'll make a diagram soon ;)
