I bought a red 3 watt off here about 3 weeks ago and it is burned out now. I had it heatsinked but now it is very dim. What should I do?

Well, first I'd find out why it "burned out." It's either lack of enough heatsinking or you overdrove the LED with too much power.

There are way too many things that an end user can do to a LED for me to warranty them for anything other than DOA.

You might also check the batteries. If they're old or used up, the LED will be dim. Pop some fresh ones in and see if that helps (if you haven't already done so).
