another first builder here. I just want to make sure I'm not gonna fry anything here.

18650 3.7V
Nano Biscotte v2
Pex
Tri cree led (Blue, Green With amber FOC)
white led momentary switch
recharge port
2w 28mm bass speaker



So for resistors:
My white momentary switch led is fv3.0 at 20mA so to a 82ohm/.25W resistor

My Blue(FVoltage @1000mA = 3.47v) and Green(FVoltage @1000mA = 3.58v) on the tri cree are to be wired together so .5ohm/3W going in and other 3W going out to color mix like in Custom Colors Made Simple (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbHpTKiLfA4) on Youtube.

Now here is where I'm most confused the Amber (FVoltage @1000mA = 2.65v) When I do the math I get an R and P of 1.05. So would that be a 1ohm/2W resistor? Also since the Amber is FOC should I get a stronger resistor to lessen the flash?

Also remember in school when that kid asked when we would ever use this math in real life. The answer is Lightsabers :D
