    1) Test fit your lens holder BEFORE you solder (that way you can see where you need to avoid with your wiring)

    2) ALWAYS ONLY SOLDER AN LED SCREWED DOWN TO THE HEATSINK (no exceptions)

    3) Be patient and always tin your wires... ooo I'm excited for you

    EDIT!: O and you can test basically every LED with a 2aa battery holder(that way you dont need to wire a resistor to lite her up as a test).. but I know you got this np

    Thanks! Still, the question remains ,the LED has several '+' and '-' "ports" (sorry, again I don't know the English terminology), wich ones should I solder to?

    when you screw the LED to the heatsink and place the lens holder over it, use the pads closest to the other set of holes.
