P4 Red + 4.8V + FX Board = Blown P4 Red. You should use Lux3 Red in that case.

Oh, ok... so that the multimeter completes the circuit?

I have had many P4 Reds work with that set up in the past, but it seems that here lately they can't handle it. I have had 3 out of 5 blow in the same exact set up.
That is the advice i was going off by not wiring in a resistor (the working fine thing, not the blowing 3/5) From now on I will just do a resistor, not hard to replace one with a spare piece of wire if it is too dim. *shrug* can't un-blow a blown led....
