Nope, each individual color is 3W.

WOW, sweet! The last I read, was that those 3-in-1 dealies were limited to 1w per diode. Now that they are 3w each, I'm going to find one for myself, I think!

I hate to bring the bad news, but that isn't accurate. According to the ProLight 3W RGB Data Sheet found here:

http://www.led-bulbs.com/html/prolight/3WRGB.pdf

Each color inside the 3w RGB is rated at 350ma (just like a 1watt Luxeon), which indicates that each color is, in-fact, a 1w diode.

Thanks for clearing that up Ultra, when I looked at getting one of these I saw those specs and thought the same thing but I figured I may be missing something.

Sorry, I was just going off a statement of Gelu's that must have misunderstood. Little deceptive to call it a 3W then... bummer.

well hows the light coming from a 1 watt anywho?? I was also thinking of what Xwing said about using four mini-potentiometers... first why 4? next now that is known that its 1 watt per led iy wouldnt be such a battery hog now would it? the other thought has anyone used a uv luxeon??

I am at a loss here.

Four pots because I happen to have an RGBY instead of an RGB. Each pot will control a seperate color.

It'd be a little more of a battery hog running at 350mA each... not much though.
