Its not my cup of tea, but i wont judge a man by his lightsaber preference. My question: Can i wire three of those single LED LI-ion drivers to one battery?

The battery in question. http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Panasonic-Li-Ion-18650-37V-3400mAh-PCB-Protected-Rechargeable-Battery-P853.aspx

The drivers in question. I want to use three of these in parallel. http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/1000mA-37V-Li-ion-Single-LED-Driver-P1211.aspx

This is the Cree i'd use. Again, three of them. http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/White-Cree-XP-E2-CopperNova-P1003.aspx

And a recharge port between the battery and the drivers would round out the build. I guess the reason im posting this is that im afraid i missed something. This looks like the dangerous kind of simple where im forgetting something major.

I appreciate any thoughts or criticism.

Take note of the size of those drivers. They are pretty big.

The planned hilt is an obscene 18 inches long (Claymore fetish, clearly). So while I haven't planned a chassis yet, I wasn't exactly worried. But I will keep that in mind.

How did this work out for you?
