Can someone tell me how to wire a BuckPuck 700mA? I have searched the forums on this site but I have come up with zip. Help me out.

welcome to the forums [:

here's a thread that's from the LED wiring discussion forum:

search harder, you must!

it works like a simpler version of the various driver boards, there's a set of prongs on the puck each corresponding to positive (+) or negetive (-) from battery and to LED. they're labled on the puck itself, there are also a couple of prongs for control ciruits but you don't need to bother with those unless you want another board controlling the output.

to wire the puck, wire positive battery to positive terminal, negative battery to negative terminal, positive LED to positeve on the star, and negative LED to negative on the star.

Do you know if the
yellow (ref) -----dont need to use
grey (clt) -------dont need to use

supplies any voltage?
what would they "theoretically" be used for?

A potentiometer (knob) to control brightness.

I went and reread the specs.

If you look at the diagrams for the different applications, those two can be used for effects anywhere from Strobe to external dimming controls.

The reference voltage can also be used to power a microprocessor for computer control. If you look at figure 15, it looks like it does supply the 5Vs most microprocessors take. I am guessing the capacitors are for filtering out the noise between the LED supply and the reference.

From the looks of it, it can only power a 20 ma load current, not enough to drive a sound board.

Any harm in putting the switch between the buck puck and LED on + ?
Because that is where I put mine.

The puck will be on all the time, I would imagine that would slowly drain the batteries.
