okay, I found the video that had the original soldering guide for what I thought was good (it was Msr. Plecter in fact!) and I can see I have forgotten a good few details between watching it and trying to use its info to inform parts purchasing for the vader.
The video shows rudimentary colour mixing on a tri-cree using the single cell hack and access to the two power extenders. Although watching the video, and trying to find it and hence watching more videos, has made me wonder; can I wire the Red and Photo Red in parallel over the current controlled channel and then have the Green run off the on board PeX? I have a double cell though, would I need a chock off power resistor on the PeX connection? Assuming the amperage over each red LED is 700mA, the total amperage won't go over the board's max 1.5A (although it cuts it mighty close).
I'm not sure Erv has calculated for the genius-idiot wiring schemes in his manual, I will go and read it again right now, but in the meantime what do you think to this?
[There's stuff in the way to the manual, reading later]
[Erv seems to think it's a bad plan:
