    Question Question Before Ordering, Lux Rebel and Resistors,

    Looking at getting 2 Rebels and wanted to make sure, the resistors are right, with the power supply

    Red 106lm @ 700mA 2.4v - Run at 700mA With a 2.2ohm 5w Resistor, And a 4aaa Bat Pack.

    Green 161lm @ 700mA 3.4v - Run at 1000mA - Not 100% so need help here, Also with a 4aaa Bat Pack,

    I can also get 3aaa Bat Packs as well.

    Also Trying to get them as bright as I can without overclocking / Killing them early

    Thanks

    Check the link in my sig for a resistor calculator. Your source voltage for a 4AAA alkaline pack would be 6v. A 3AAA alkaline pack would be 4.5v.
    We all have to start somewhere. The journey is all the more impressive by our humble beginnings.
