so yeah you guys prolly see a ton of p7 threads but i couldn't find what i need with search so...
anyway have a niterider trailrat and i want to use the batt pack to make a custom light and i was looking at using the p7 http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.12721 the batt is a 6v and the p7 is rated for 3.6-3.7v so i'm thinkin 1 of 2 things, either run 2 wired in series so that would be 7.2v, would 6v be too underpowered? the other thing i might do is just use 1 bulb (which seems bright enough) and then put a resistor in series but i don't see the ohm rating on the p7 so idk what resistor to use so if anybody has any info i could use some help thx
