I guess i could get a DC power supply 9v or below and splice it and attach the wires for a test

I just got some info back on these LED's that i got for free...

Those samples are from the 7W LEDs. They have about a 3.7VDC drop across each LED. The three LEDs are in series, so that is about a 11.1 volt drop total. At 700mA, that makes a 11.1V X .7A = 7.8W source They are 110 Lumens Per LED @ 700mA

Anyone wanna give me an idea of what that means i could do to power them. As per Some previous info i will be taking them off and putting them on a Star PCB Triple.. and then mounting them to a heat sink...

Does that info make sense?
