That was quick.

Much quicker than it took for the K2s to come out! Ummm.... yummy! Discuss, discuss, discuss!!!!!

can't wait till they have lenses available

Exactly what I was thinking

[Novastar]

Oh they're out there. You just have to look.

But... 9V???!?!?!!

Saaaannntaaaa Mariiiiaaaahhhh!!!!!

Saaaannntaaaa Mariiiiaaaahhhh!!!!!

Maybe they're talking about the combined voltage for it? So each LED would only need 3 volts?

[vortextwist]

yes but you will still need 9v

[Stinky Bantha]

yes but you will still need 9v

Fair enough.. I guess I just misunderstood the excitement

[vortextwist]

lol, no prob.

[Novastar]

Not necessarily. I think it would be possible to light the crazy bah-sturd RGB one up with around 8v. Granted, no you would not be running all 3 LEDs at their Max Cont. Current.

But that is the point... not a single FX board out there runs a 1A LED at full current, especially not a K2 that wants 1500ma. But... they are still bright.

With something like 8v (7.4v Li-Ion, effective @8v)... you could probably get @700ma to each LED, and get a good amount of lumens.

Or you could go bonkers and wire up 6AA for the full monty.

Additionally, if you think about it--why would you have all three at max as that would *basically* give you white. One LED would be lit more than another to give you... well, the color you want.

If you want white... just get the Tri-Endor White?

yea,
